Kind of . This weekend’s Saturday Night Live guest host is making the rounds in a pair of new promos featuring the Oscar-winner in various states of comic congress with Fred Armisen, Andy Samberg and Foo Fighters. The move-busting is positively mythical. Watch after the jump.

Kristen Wiig realizes that not everyone is going to universally love every single character that she creates on Saturday Night Live . It’s not that she spends a lot of time (or any time, for that matter) thinking about what the overall consensus will be, but it’s kind of hard to ignore when her own mother calls to voice disapproval over a new character.

Anytime Saturday Night Live brings on a “young, hip” entertainer, they have a history of dumbing down their material for the mass audience — which is exactly what happened last night with host Miley Cyrus. It’s obvious that there’s a concerted effort to appeal to the 16-year-old out there who has never watched SNL before, but was watching last night because Cyrus was hosting — a Cyrus, I should add, who came off a bit smug at times (her monologue is a good example) and seemed to never really win over the studio audience.

Two new SNL videos have emerged from Studio 8H on this lazy Wednesday afternoon: The first highlights a pair of promos for this weekend’s Jesse Eisenberg-hosted show, where Bill Hader congratulates The Social Network star for his Oscar nomination. Standard stuff. Not the second video, though, which features a rare look at the SNL dress rehearsal. Have you ever wanted to see Seth Meyers sarcastically berate the crowd for not responding correctly to his “Update” jokes — a sin which means that joke will not air during the live broadcast? Here’s your chance! Also, if you think that Hader has difficulty getting through his lines as Stefon on the live broadcasts, you really need to watch how hard it is for him at dress rehearsal.

Perhaps I’m in the holiday spirit (maybe), perhaps it’s the amount of wine consumed from back-to-back holiday parties (more likely), but last night’s Jeff Bridges-hosted installment of Saturday Night Live was, well, quite great. Not the laugh-out-loud funniest show of the season, but, from top to bottom, there wasn’t a whole lot of “bad.” I mean, it was so good that the best sketch of the night was the third to last of the show. Bridges, who last co-hosted in 1983 with his brother Beau, did an admirable job as host but, more importantly, did an admirable job of not getting in the way of a cast that was obviously on a mission before they took a break for the holidays.

Poor Paul Rudd. Last time he hosted SNL , his performance was overshadowed by musical guest Beyoncé (and her “Single Ladies” sketch with Justin Timberlake). This time Rudd had to compete with a Beatle. After a very slow start, the Paul Rudd-hosted edition of SNL recovered into one of the most memorable but wildly unbalanced episodes of the season. Let’s be clear: Rudd did a fine job, but this was Paul McCartney’s episode. Not only did McCartney appear in three different sketches, the former Beatle got four — four! — musical segments: Performing “Jet,” “Band on the Run,” a “Day in the Life”/”Give Peace a Chance” hybrid and “Get Back.” So, how was the rest of the show that didn’t involve McCartney singing? On to the scorecard!

Robert De Niro returned for his third Saturday Night Live hosting gig last night, and the usually befuddled host was, this time, surprisingly… OK. Look, the guy is never going to be considered one of the great hosts — a screen legend always seeming to be a little bit out of his element. For starters, De Niro, more than almost any other recurring host, doesn’t really hide the fact that he reads off of cue cards (of course, because of so many last-minute changes, everyone on SNL reads off of cue cards, but some work harder than than others at hiding this). But, dammit, there’s something endearing about the fact that he keeps trying. It would be going a little far to say that the third time was a charm — but his third time was, let’s say, serviceable (with some help from Ben Stiller). On to the scorecard!

Last week, the news broke that President Obama split his lip playing a pickup game of basketball. My thoughts immediately began to drift toward the parody Saturday Night Live would no doubt have done this past weekend — and which I presume remains imminent after the show’s week off. Then I remembered, Oh yeah: It’s still Fred Armisen doing Obama and not Jay Pharoah. Never mind.
