Jon Hamm crashes 'SNL'

Categories: Saturday Night Live, Television

Saturday Night Live gave Tina Fey the night off yesterday, but Mad Men's Jon Hamm stepped in as host and gave us a couple of decent Hulu clips (cuz let's face it: although SNL has manged to become culturally relevant again this election season, the worthwhile material each week can still be summed up with a clip or two). His James Mason was pretty funny (great drunken British accent!), but the funniest moment of the night was "Don Draper's Guide" where Hamm's Mad Men character shares tips on picking up women. My favorite? "Drink and smoke constantly."

And despite what Judd Apatow's gang may think of me for saying so, I also dug Coldplay rocking it old-school with "Yellow" last night.

Oh, and congrats to Amy Poehler, who wasn't at the Weekend Update desk because she was having her baby. We'll miss the funny pregnant lady sketches, but all good things must come to an end, I suppose.

It was my pleasure to visit your Website. I am also very Website you enjoy the article.And I also have the feeling that it was really a pity that we didn’t meet each other earlier. Because the kindness and warmth in your Website can make me completely relaxed and happy. I hope that you will visit my blog too to see if you can have the same feeling.http://www.buynikeshoes.com

Kelly, you are crazy! The Jon Hamm SNL episode was the best episode of the year so far! Neil Patrick Harris was good too, but no one can touch Jon Hamm. I can't believe no one mentioned Jon Hamm's John Ham. I can't wait until they have him back! Next season?

Mad Men is a great show - hope they have a 3rd season!

Dawn Mon, Oct 27, 2008 at 02:31 PM EST

This clip was funny on Saturday and it still makes me laugh today. Thanks for sharing!

DanOregon Mon, Oct 27, 2008 at 02:30 PM EST

Jon Hamm has the type of loveable smugness that made Burt Reynolds, Alec Baldwin and George Clooney stars.

He was great, put him in the regular rotation of guest hosts.

banan Mon, Oct 27, 2008 at 12:50 PM EST

not sure if i missed something but i didn't see any Yello - only 2 crap songs la vida and lost..... coldplay needs to be reminded they are no radiohead and chris martin needs to stop bouncing around like a fool.

MC Mon, Oct 27, 2008 at 11:58 AM EST

For some reason the Vincent Price sketch had me rolling. I haven't laughed at a SNL sketch like that in a while.

Kelly Mon, Oct 27, 2008 at 11:58 AM EST

The show was not funny besides the ad agency skit. This was the worst episode this season besides the Michael Phelps one. The rest of the season has been fantastic. I miss Tina Fey.

Elizabeth Mon, Oct 27, 2008 at 06:11 AM EST

He was fantastic! I think this was the first show of the season where the good skits outweighed the klunkers. The monologue was great, Jon Hamm's John Ham, even the political ads at the end were good. Oh - the AHoles Visit a 60s Ad agency: I loved Casey Wilson's Joan :)

MLC1969 Sun, Oct 26, 2008 at 10:56 PM EST

Awesome. We've been watching MM from the start, and that made the skits even more enjoyable. Great to see this side of Jon Hamm, too...the guy's a great actor and MM is a total gem.

Raven_Moon Sun, Oct 26, 2008 at 10:03 PM EST

That was pretty funny.

KateDFW Sun, Oct 26, 2008 at 08:52 PM EST

After seeing Jon Hamm play the moody and complicated Don Draper, it ws great to see him laugh and smile last night. I thought he did a great job but then again, I could watch him read the phone book for 2 hours. Swoon!

Jessica S Sun, Oct 26, 2008 at 06:33 PM EST

Absolutely hilarious! I missed the show last night (I had to go dancing and scope pretty boys) but was thrilled when I saw some super funny clips of Jon. That man can do anything.

Very funny... Can't wait for the season finale tonight!

Meg Sun, Oct 26, 2008 at 02:26 PM EST

I don't watch Mad Men, but that clip kind of makes me want to.

Rebekah Sun, Oct 26, 2008 at 10:49 AM EST

Jon Hamm is an amazing actor. Glad more people got to see him on SNL last night. It's also great to see his funny side too.
