He was so stiff with his arm and by showing the pump, I thought he would just say... "ok it's a pump, I am nervous" and skip the whole bit... very bad...
...you make it sound like everything has to go perfectly for it to be "funny". Hell, I thought his apparent trouble with the pump was far more entertaining than "OMG HE PEED!".
On the whole, the episode was good. Good musical guest, good weekend update (For once the Amy/Tina interaction was actually really funny, and they seemed very natural for a change.), and a couple of good skits (Celebrity Jeopardy was really quite good, the formula still works).
I'm impressed that they refrained from parading out past Ferrell characters one by one. Goulet and Jeopardy were the only real skits that were directly taken, and the rest of the show never really became terrible. There were some weaker skits, mind you, but nothing made me think "This is the worst episode of SNL ever". I like episodes that don't make me think that.
We'll see how next week turns out...Lohan was impressive, relatively, as host last time, so we'll see how she and a good musical guest work out this time around.
