Can Joseph Gordon-Levitt host 'SNL' as well as he swings a drink?

Filed under: Television and tagged: ,

I don’t know, you guys — I have a sneaking suspicion this guy might be a funnier Saturday Night Live host than last week’s January Jones. I know! It’s a crazy thing to say! It’s just an instinct. ILI (I love instincts).

    I never watched 3rd Rock From the Sun but I’ve been blown away by his career in everything after! Hope he breaks out huge soon, he deserves it!

  • Emily

    I love this guy.

  • laura

    January Jones suck on SNL .. I have never felt sorry for a host before but man poor girl!

    Good luck JGL!

    I love JGL, and I’m sure he’ll do well. I think it’s kind of sad that I had to watch an ad for pickles so I could watch ads for SNL…

    • PMD

      Hahaha. The ad for the pickle was almost as long as the SNL ad – which was almost repetitive.

      Well at least it is keeping Hulu free!

        …But not for long.

  • Renaton

    I just hope the writing improves at least a bit. I mean, that Lorenzo Lamas joke is not exactly a good sign.

    But I love everything he does (well, almost everything now that I remembered G.I. Joe) so I’m hoping for a good show.

    he keeps saying “the dave matthews band”

    the name of the band is: Dave Matthews Band.

    no “the”

    and this doesn’t look funny

    • Sara

      Oh shut up.

    • petuniafromhell

      exactly..oh shut up.

  • dan

    I mean, but “DummAzz” must know what funny is because of his name right? Thats a play on words…..its hilarious….he must be hilarious.

  • hannah

    I love JGL. I have stopped watching snl lately, but I will watch for him. I hope he does well.

  • rebecca

    J G-L is awesome!! i cant wait till saturday! i loved him in 3rd rock of the sun, 10 things i hate about you and 500 days of summer!

    january jones was terrible, she would keep on messing up her lines and it seemed like she was either afraid or she just could not read her lines correctly, but either way she was not a good host!

  • Synth

    this is gonna be good

  • Karen

    I don’t think January Jones should get all the blame for last weekend’s terrible SNL – her acting was pretty stiff, but the writing really stunk. I mean, really….. a farting Grace Kelly?

  • Via

    Per usual, I can’t actually see the video in question but I’m calling it now: JGL will be a great host. He is charming, musically talented and has a natural comedic ability which combined tends to go a long way when it comes to hosting SNL.

  • mari

    i will be watching just for jgl. he will succeed just because nothing can be worse then last week.
    and i think he is so freaking cute.

  • chalky

    Yeah, the very presence of the awesome JGL is bringing me out of muy years-long hiatus from SNL. God, I hope the writing does him justice.

  • ENC

    woohoo, I just hope SNL can do JGL justice.
