Emil Guillermo: I know I tend to bash SNL a lot (and it deserves it), but one joke made me laugh pretty hard last night

Actually, there was more than one good laugh in the show, but Weekend Update was better than normal with Kate McKinnon playing Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg as a venerable and funky judge.

As she spoke about Uptown Funkin’ with Bruno Mars (funny in itself), McKinnon as the Ginz came back and topped it: “I like my men like I like my  decisions…5-4.”

That’s as funny a Filipino short joke as I’ve ever heard.

Emil Guillermo: Hader’s Hu on Saturday Night Live: Why? Shouldn’t an Asian play an Asian?

Did you catch Bill Hader’s send up of the recent G-20 meetings? Great, but what’s the white guy doing playing the Chinese leader?
