I almost never watch Saturday Night Live, which is rarely funny, but I did watch last night's episode. Glad I did. This satirical commercial for Annuale, a pill that suppresses a woman's monthly cycle to once yearly, was a scream. "What if you could have your period just once a year?" Heh. I thought Julie was going to fall off the couch laughing:
UPDATE: OK, so the YouTube version must have disappeared. Here's a link straight to the NBC site, where you can watch it. One of NBC's viewers noted that Amy Poehler in the skit seems to be wearing a t-shirt featuring St. Charbel Makhlouf.

Wow indeed. Those are some Boadicēa's Mamas.
And speaking of gjoe, those are *not* your mother's Army boots.

I'm bummin', though - c. 8 last-night SNL clips there, but NBC no got fake-ad w/wonderful Kristen Wiig (Target Lady, hair-twiddling one-upping obsessive Penelope, gumcracking girlfriend in "Two A-holes" bits w/Jason, &c.) advertising hot-air balloon rides, highlight of show for me...c'mon NBC!
I saw it too and don't usually watch. Very funny. And I liked Tina Fey's woman's news - a blatant Hillary ad.
And Huckabee was a surprise on the newscast. He's got a second career in late night comedy if he wants it.
