After last week's lackluster episode, Saturday Night Live needed the jolt of hilarity and personality that is Gabourey Sidibe. Given her candor on red carperts and interviews, everyone could guess this would be a great episode. While she was great, the writing definitely had its holes with that "Public Employee Awards" and "I Did it My Style: Frank Sinatra." However, it did have some great sketches thrown in. Below are a few of my favorite sketches from the night.
Opening Monologue
The "I'm Gabourey" song just may have been my favorite bit of the whole night.
Keenan as Steve Harvey
"This suit has 50 buttons!"
Crazy Ms. Jackson
“My daddy used to sell Wikipedias...that’s why we was always so poor.”
Weekend Update:
Stefan: City Correspondent
Girl Scout Cookies Rant
Thin Mints...put them in the freezer...unless you don't like having your mind blown
"Have more pride in yourselves, Girl Scout Cookies! UR worth more than just coming out once a year. UR not candy canes or the McRib"
Alarm Clocks and More
Other tidbits worth a mention:
The papacy of Pope Benedict turned 5 this year...and a priest hit on it....!
"There's nothing more Nazi than saying "show me your papers. Heads up Arizona, that's fascism."
"Anytime someone says 'Show me your papers," Hitler's family gets a residual check."
"Bad PCP - you gotta try this man. It's gonna make you sooo cautious."
What did you guys think of the episode?

100 Best Movie Lines in 200 Seconds
How many have you seen? I tried to keep track and believe I've seen all but 14. I really need to get around to seeing the Alien movies and Gladiator.
