SNL Presidential Bash 2008
Last night SNL had a political parody comedy special called the “SNL Presidential Bash”. It was essentially a clip show of all their impressions of the political candidates: Obama, Palin, Biden, McCain, and Hilary Clinton. They also showed highlights from when a few of the actual candidates appeared on “SNL”.

Find all the SNL video clips from Monday’s presidential bash aggregated on TVSquad.
If you need more sarcastic political comedy, be sure to tune into Comedy Central’s election coverage with Stephen Colbert and “The Daily Show’s” Jon Stewart. The live “Daily Show/Colbert Report Election Night special” begins tonight at 10pm EST/7PM PST.

Life-Size Plasma Screens?!
I just remembered that Amy Poehler made a joke about a 150 inch plasma television on “Weekend Update”! She cracked that they were released just in time for no one to afford them (since we’re in a financial crisis). Turns out, she is absolutely correct. Panasonic’s 150″ plasma screen television is rumored to cost over $150,000 bucks!
The tv aka “Life Wall” is less than one inch thick. It boasts that the plasma screen uses 50% LESS power with the new double luminance efficiency feature. It has a resolution of 2160×4096 pixels, which is 4x the resolution of a typical 1080i flat screen television. And apparently it uses 220 volts, which means you probably can’t run it in your home without owning a small portion of your city’s power grid!
Panasonic now holds the record for “world’s largest plasma display”. You can find more screenshots of the 150″ TV on Gizmodo. They got to take an up-close and personal tour of these sets at CSE 2008 in January.
Luckily, there are still normal sized (and priced) plasma televisions available on the market for the rest of us.

SNL’s Take on VP Debate: Best Political Parody Yet!
Yesterday, we watched all the Sarah Palin/Tina Fey skits in succession (thanks to the wonders of DVR technology!), which made the latest skit even more hilarious! Last saturday’s episode of “SNL” sent up the VP debate. Tina Fey continued her astute Sarah Palin impression, while Jason Sudeikis took a stab at Joe Biden, and Queen Latifah was the best as the book-plugging moderator, Gwen Ifills. Thanks to Hulu, you can relive these comedy skits over and over.
Keep the political parodies coming SNL writers! They’re making Saturday Night Live funny again, if only for a few minutes for these hilarious cold opens.
