Does Not Compute

Everyone's all excited about this Saturday Night Live rap song about going to see The Chronicles of Narnia. Apple is giving the video away free on iTunes, though no doubt it's available everywhere else as well. Look, here's Kevin Drum being all excited about it. For the record, I did not crack a smile. It's not really that funny, and the whole thing stinks, if you ask me, of some clever cross-marketing scheme between Saturday Night Live, Chronicles promoters, and the iTunes "Look, iPods play videos now" store.

On an unrelated pop culture note, I am pleased that Atrios's threadbot has been running Buffy quotes for the past couple of weeks.

I suppose I'll check it out eventually. But I'm sure I'll agree. Nobody seems to understand how terrible Saturday Night Live is; it always seems to capture our public "imagination"; you see how much that must be worth.

Any comedy group that fired Sarah Silverman obviously has no idea of what it's doing.
