The Game 5.08 Review: Familiar Territory

After a brutal confrontation in Roger Keith's office in the last episode, you would think that The Game returned with some sort of inkling to what happened after Keith decimated Derwin and Malik's plans of overthrowing new kid Kwan (Charles Michael Davis). Instead, not only as that plot thread given a rest this week, but the writers decided to revisit some familiar territory that would have been relevant three to four years ago. Of course I'm talking about none other than the possible renewal of the Melanie-Derwin-Janay love triangle. However before we get to that trip down memory lane, let's get back track on how we got there in the first place.

Mike Ryan: SNL Scorecard: Is Maya Rudolph Linsane?

19 February 2012 10:35 AM, PST | Aol TV. | See recent Aol TV. news »

So, the talk this week centered on the question of "will she or won't she" in relation to Maya Rudolph's Whitney Houston impression -- and thankfully, that didn't happen. (Though, that was nothing compared to the now two weeks of buildup until Lindsay Lohan's sure-to-be disaster of a show.) The most notable thing about last night's show was the cold open: absolutely pouncing on the Jeremy Lin story - even responding to the unfortunate Espn headline - instead of the usual, "Hey, here's Mitt Romney talking," or whatever. In other words: it set the tone for the night. A very good Amy Poehler, Justin Timberlake and Paul Simon cameo filled night, I should add.

Sketch of the Night

"Cold Open: Linsanity Postgame" (Hader, Thompson, Pharoah, Killam) Please, please, please, please, please let this put an end, once and for all, to the Jeremy Lin puns. You, out there, »
