The time is now for John Cena’s episode of Saturday Night Live!
Wrestling expert Chris (from the Your Stupid Minds and Some of My Friends Read Comics podcasts) shows up to give us the lowdown on John Cena. And also his pitch for a Donald Trump/Captain Planet crossover!
Now more than ever, Saturday Night Love cannot and will not be stopped! Emma Stone hosted SNL this past week, and Kia & Vince have all the deets!
Also, does Vince have a cereal whiter than the white supremacist cereal described on Weekend Update? And what are our predictions for John Cena’s episode next week?
Best Sketch of the Night
Batman’s not the only hero to get a Year One.
This time around, the gang reads Robin: Year One to see how it compares to the Frank Miller classic.
We’ll discuss how easy it is to mix up all the Robins, the merits of attacking random little boys on the street, and whether or not Two-Face has a law degree.
I know what I’m thankful for: Kristen Wiig returning to Saturday Night Live! And you know what that means — big, creepy parade floats and crying in Target parking lots!
Plus: The return of the Trivia Segment! And the latest in Baldwin family tweet battles!
Nextwave! A little Marvel series you’ve maybe never heard of that’s generated quite a bit of a cult following. Warren Ellis and Stuart Immonen take us on a wild ride that manages to both celebrate and parody everything we love about superhero comics.
We read the first 6 issues, join us to find out if we exploded!
Dave Chappelle returns to sketch comedy, just when we needed him most. Vince breaks down the three pillars of Chappelle’s comedy, and Kia regrets that he didn’t become the next David S. Pumpkins.
All this and more on this week’s SATURDAY NIGHT LOVE!
What happens when a bunch of Avengers villains band together to form The Masters of Evil? They take over Avengers Mansion of course! We take a look at a classic storyline by Roger Stern and John Buscema from the mid 80’s called Under Siege that ran in issues 270-277 (with a little underwater break in 272).
We’ll meet a bunch of our favorite B, C, and D-list villains and see if ol’ sock-head Baron Zemo can lead them to victory!
This week, SNL is hosted by one of the sexiest men alive?
Topics Covered: How did Aidy Bryant get that role as the dead bachelorette who gets face-humped by Benedict Cumberbatch? How great is Cecily Strong doing this year? And Vince is confronted with the possibility that Church Lady was never funny.
Also, get out there and vote!
Best Sketch of the Night: Why is Benedict Cumberbatch Hot? (sorry, not on YouTube!)
For Halloween this year, ALL MY FRIENDS are tackling the spookiest subject of all: our own mortality! We reflect on the celebrity deaths of 2016, and celebrate the best work from David Bowie, Alan Rickman, Merle Haggard, Prince, and Gene Wilder!
Other topics include, how many covers have the Wallflowers recorded? How instrumental was Billy Zane in getting David Bowie for Zoolander? Is it good or bad that Prince’s last acting credit was for New Girl?
Doctor Strange is almost here! If the trailers are to be believed, Marvel’s next movie is going to have us unwrapping our minds, opening them up to new possibilities.
We figured we’d better get some practice with that, so we read a Doctor Strange miniseries from 2007 called The Oath written by frenemy of the show, Brian K. Vaughan, and drawn by Marcos Martin.
Join us to find out which otherworldly horror we’re getting tattoos of!
