Paul Rudd Can Even Make SNL Promos Funny

Here's a series of promos for this week's Saturday Night Live, hosted by Paul Rudd (don't forget!), and something strange is going on because they're not awkward and they're actually funny. Like, there's actually a joke in this that I'm planning to remember and quote sometime kind of funny. Paul Rudd's powers must be infinite!:

(The joke is "No, number six." "Murrrder!") Oh, also, Beyonce will be there too, I guess, hogging the spotlight from Paul.

Constant buffering is the opposite of comedic timing. I hate the NBC player.

i didn't find any of those funny. Does that mean I'm dead inside?

Not at all. They did have Samberg in them after all. I pray he's the one who's going to get "number-sixed".

I liked a few of those. "Number 6", "Invisible Contest 2" and the one where they just pose are funny.

Dammit! The video's not available outside the USA. Stupid NBC.
Anyway, it was the most homosexual episode of SNL ever. Woo hoo!
