Even The Muppets Can't Save SNL From Itself
I’m not sure if you’re aware of this, but Jason Segel is starring in a movie called The Muppets that also stars The Muppets. I know! They’ve been keeping that under wraps, real hush hush, but it’s a fact, and so it seemed about the right time for Mr. Segel and his furry friends to take the SNL stage. Was it the greatest episode of SNL in history? No. Was it the best episode this season so far? Also no. Was it terrible? Kind of, but come on—we need to savor this time with Kristin Wiig, Bill Hader, and Jason Sudeikis while we can. They won’t be with us for very much longer. As for Segel, he pulled out some great characters, like Andre the Giant and a prostitute (who was basically Andre the Giant in a wig).
