SNL preview of Melissa reprising Spicey.

[Atman]

Particularly proud because my kid is one of the designers on SNL who makes the props and graphics.

1. Almost sad...so much new material came up after they filmed this.

This is from the SNL "Film Unit." They do the pre-recorded stuff (I've learned a lot since my son started working for them). It's still done rushed, and given that it broke Tuesday they might still re-do some things. Spicey jumping out of the bushes would be good? Who knows. Hopefully it will be good beyond the cold opening!

10. lol...

Spicey jumping out of the bushes was and would be hillarious!

2. Spicer to Sara

Maybe they will do something like.... Spicey announcing Comey getting fired...with bushes around him...and then HE gets fired right there also. And Sanders comes in and continues...

3. I have a strong feeling that this sketch will be re-written by Saturday night.

Son tells me how it works. They're on call constantly, and create graphics and screen images just hours before the show. They work up until the very last minute, although the film unit has a longer lead time. Either way, it should be fun to see what they do with this this weekend!

4. That was my guess too. She can morph in a heartbeat.

Couldn't be more perfect. Dammit.

6. I was thinking about Melissa playing Sarah during this afternoon's press conference.

So, so perfect if that comes to fruition.

She cracks me the eff up.

5. I am sure we will see Spicer in the Bush

7. What a historic time to be part of SNL!

You have every reason to be proud!

8. Melissa is fantastic as Spicey, and she'll be oh-so-good as Huckabee's spawn.

Your kid has a great gig.

[Atman]

12. He's doing great.

He was the lead designer on part two of The Get Down on Netflix, then moved to SNL. He's finishing up the season, then moves on to Key & Peele. Worked on a Louis CK special. And we thought he'd be living in our basement until he was 40! Don't ever give up on your kids.

9. SNL needs to find a guy to do sarah huckabee,

Just to get under her lying skin.

11. Brava!

Oh please oh please oh please let her do Spicey hiding from the press corp in the shrubbery this week.
