Thanks... anyone think Jude Law was channeling Christopher Walken a little too much in that skit with the wine and the poison?

Thank goodness PJ was on this episode...The Lonely Island (Andy Samberg) song was one of his worst.

Not sure, I recorded it off of VH1 last week (I had the original airing on my DVR but when space ran out it was cut without my knowledge) and on that airing it kept the Twilight Zone sketch, but cut Unthought Known.

SNL is a 90 minute show, but VH1 edits it down to an hour. If the musical guest were Lady Gaga or some other pop culture act who is popular right now they would show both musical performances and cut another sketch, but since it's Pearl Jam they cut one of the songs. I've seen them cut both musical performances before when it wasn't a VH1-friendly musical guest, so at least they kept one.

You can watch all the PJ material online at SNL's official site

Just Breathe:

Unthought Known:

Edit: Actually the Just Breathe video appears to be down, maybe they'll get it back up. You can probably find it somewhere else though, and it was the one not edited from the VH1 episode.

Cool, this aired last night for the first time in Denmark, so ofcourse I had to watch it. Seemed edited to me too, and now it's confirmed as I/we only saw 'Just Breathe'. But 'The Twilight Zone' part was in it.

Now I'm not a huge SNL viewer, but is there any reason as to why every actor seemed to look at the stagesides in stead of looking at eachother when they spoke? Is it becasue they are busy reading cue-cards, or did I miss something? Especially in the Spain bit, noone looked at each other during lines, which seemed a bit odd, or is it simply a part of the charm of SNL?

Yeah, they're busy reading the cue cards. Used to be only the host would be reading them, and the cast would usually be pretty good about learning their lines. Sometimes a good host would learn his lines as well, but most of the time they are basically just there to promote something and don't take the time to learn all of their lines. Over the years it has gotten worse and nearly everybody reads the cards now, cast included. I hardly even notice it anymore, because it's so common. I don't know why the cast doesn't bother learning their lines, maybe it's just that so many of them are busy making movies and doing other stuff that the actual sketches take a back seat. Could have something to do with the fact that they recruit most of their talent out of improv comedy troupes, and following a written script/learning lines is difficult for many of them.
