F-Bomb on SNL…Oops
September 27, 2009 by Kath Skerry
It seems someone forgot to tell SNL newbie Jenny Slat that the “L” in SNL stands for live. Live as in it’s not ok to be dropping the F-bomb on NBC. Tsk. Tsk. Well at least people are talking about her today. Unfortunately it’s not for her stand out talent.
SNL won’t face any FCC fines as the curse was aired during a period of time where such language is allowed without fault.
You’ve heard people swear a million times over, but here’s the video all the same.
This clip is taken somewhat out of context. She didn’t really just spit out the F-bomb out of nowhere like that. The whole skit revolved around characters which said “friggin” about 3 times per sentence – she just lost herself on this one and let the actual word slip. It was an honest mistake, and you can tell from her facial expression immediately after that she realized immediately what she had done. I felt bad for her, honestly.
Agreed. I watched the skit and never noticed it, in fact. I read it in the paper this morning!
