Speaking by phone Thursday shortly after her Emmy nomination for outstanding actress in a comedy series on "SNL," Poehler said she will join NBC's spinoff of "The Office." She's expected to star. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080717/ap_on_en_tv/tv_office_spinoff_4

Did they not submit Amy for the category that Tina is nominated in? That is kinda strange. When was the last time a SNL cast member was in the comedy acting...

I've heard Amy is trying to pull a Tina and bounce for another NBC sitcom (with the indian guy from human giant).

This show is thin on funny females as is...losing Amy would be too much for me!

Bunches of Emmy noms for SNL this year. I don't recall them getting so many high profile ones in recent years

Tina Fey for Performance in a Variety or Music Program for the episode she hosted, up against the likes of Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, and David Letterman

Amy Poehler for Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series (!)

Yeah, "Clap Hands" was possibly the best thing on SNL this entire decade so far.

I rarely pay attention to the musical guests but it's too much of a tradition to give up now and nothing excites me more for an SNL episode than hearing that Beck or Foo Fighters or some other artist I like is performing. Even when there's an awesome host lined up, the material still might suck, but you usually know what you're getting into with the music act (although Foo Fighters...

I don't think they should get rid of the music and make it a 1 hour show. Yeah I know the band usually sucks but sometimes you get utter brilliance too. Beck's Clap Hands was one of the coolest things ever! So really they just need less Usher and more Beck.

WTF happened to Usher anyway? He used to be hot. Now he's a porkster with a wide ass who can't sing anymore.

Loved the two a-holes. As usual.

Ha Ha ha. Names that sound like dirty phrases. They did this before with Robert DeNiro reading off the "terrorist" trading card names a few years ago.

The split screen Obama/Hillary was sort of creeping me out! I'm glad they cut back on the long "Hillary" ranting monologues for the season finale. They were getting old!

Finally, Jon McCain gets his cameo. I'm not a Republican or a Democrat, but the show has been Obama/Hillary heavy so much...

Nice bonus having Ricky Gervais introduce it too.

Yeah same here. The weather updates came on about the time Bill Hader and Fred Armisen were impersonating those Grand Theft Auto people. I didn't get to see any of the rest of the show because they had continuing weather coverage until at 2:00 in the morning.

SNL is now back for its 29th season. Post any info such as new hosts, castmembers, or funny quotes from this season or anyother (Tell me there is already a thread about this)

So far I heard that they redid the whole set to look like grand central station and got a new opening theme thats brighter then the past couple of seasons dark and gloomy one.

I hope this season is better then the last two. Any news on castmembers?
