Take a look at our must-watch moments from last Saturday’s SNL. Host Melissa McCarthy brought on the laughs with high heels and over-the-top characters.
There were a couple funny cameos on this weekend's new episode of Saturday Night Live, but my favorite has to be when Game of Thrones star Peter Dinklage (aka Tyrion Lannister) stopped by the "Weekend Update" desk as part of the "Drunk Uncle" skit. He played Peter Drunklage, a guy who's as disgruntled as the Drunk Uncle (and just as un-PC). Watch to see him hilariously slur his words and even shock Drunk Uncle.
We've already highlighted TV shows inspired by movies, but more and more often, big-screen versions of TV shows have been hitting the theater. There are the obvious tube-to-theater series like Star Trek, Saturday Night Live sketches, and Sex and the City, but there are some other popular movies with TV origins that might surprise you. Take a look to see which films were inspired by memorable TV series!
Ever wonder what happens behind closed doors at Saturday Night Live? Turns out, there exists a special club for those who've hosted the show five times. As this weekend marked Justin Timberlake's fifth time hosting the show, he was finally invited to throw on a smoking jacket and join the likes of Chevy Chase, Alec Baldwin, Steve Martin, and Candice Bergen in the Five-Timers Club. As Martin ushers Timberlake around, he gets served a drink by bartender Fiver-Timer wannabe Dan Aykroyd, while Martin Short (tries) to serve him appetizers. It's kind of like a smorgasbord of comedy stars.

Perennial performer Justin Timberlake is returning to the Saturday Night Live stage this weekend to pull double-duty as a host and musical guest. According to these promos, he will also be in charge of makeup, sound, cameras, and pretty much the entire show. That is, as long as Kenan Thompson is by his side. At one point, Thompson steps away and the usually collected Timberlake gets flustered, inviting us to watch Friday Live Pie. Whatever it's called, I'll be tuning in to see JT host for his fifth time this weekend.
