After a few weeks off the air (in an era when it feels like a year’s worth of news can happen in that time) “Saturday Night Live” dabbled in the political but still delivered a few bits of pure comedy, all anchored by a man who took pride in noting that he’s “been saying whatever the hell I want for 30 years and I’m doing great.”
Host: Charles Barkley
While this week’s host isn’t best known for his comedy chops, he did at least bring a veteran’s confidence — though it was surprising that Barkley’s lowest point was the monologue, given that this was his fourth time hosting and the guy’s job these days is literally just talking on camera.
Based on how wooden Barkley’s monologue delivery was, the best thing to be said about his performance in subsequent sketches is that he...

It can be quite disappointing to see a beloved actor pop up in a terrible movie, but I'd say it's worse to see them in a terrible movie with a cast of people who used to be well-known. There's something about the has-been stigma that just hurts. One could excuse away bad movies to behind-the-scenes conflict or the need for cash (I'm looking at you, Michael Caine and Peter O'Toole), but joining a cast list filled with talent who used to be in big films just adds an extra slap.
See, The Hollywood Reporter posts that Tara Reid is making a Last Call, and she'll be joined by names that include Christopher Lloyd, Tom Arnold, Dave Foley, and Clint Howard. Sure, that last guy's career is all about the questionable gigs, but what's said with the rest of the roster? I don't want to say that these guys are has-beens,...

Yes, it really was just 8 months ago that party girl Tara Reid checked into rehab, getting her alcoholism and anorexia treated and emerging, hopefully, clean and ready to take her career seriously again. Which has led her to take a role in an indie comedy that is titled, I do not jest, Last Call. Is that really the way we're treating our recovering alcoholics these days? The THR story doesn't even suggest that Reid is getting the chance to act alongside major stars-- the biggest names are Clint Howard and Tom Arnold-- and we don't even know what Reid's role would be, though you can assume it's something along the lines of "pretty girl." Sure, Reid has to start somewhere after becoming completely unreliable on sets, but taking a movie titled Last Call just seems like a cruel joke.
