You Might Want to Rethink
"SNL" -- You Can't Beat Us

Posted Feb 21st 2009 9:15AM by TMZ Staff

Kenan Thompson"Saturday Night Live" will not let a silly little beating stand in the way of what could be a rating's bonanza.

Kenan Thompson told Us Magazine Chris Brown is more than welcome on "SNL" anytime, saying, "We don't care about scandal. We just care about what brings us ratings! If we had them both on the show, that would be crazy."

But wait, there's more. Kenan says, "I know how women can get when you get a text message from another female, so I'm just saying -- you have to learn that you can't put your
hands on a female."

Kenan calls the whole Rihanna thing "an unfortunate situation."

There's a Latin phrase, res ipsa loquitur. Translation: The thing speaks for itself.

6. What the hell? I guess violence against woman in the black community, or the white community for that matter, is okay with the men that do it. Then the women are stupid enough to take it and go back with the idiots!!!! When are women going to stand up and say ENOUGH...15,000 women a year are killed by their spouses. Think about that.

7. he's immature and 95 percent of his 'skits' suck majorly on the show- 'good burger' anyone?

8. that's why you don't see KEL anymore, Keenan ate Kel and now Kel works from inside Keenan to help him come up with ideas for SNL. maybe Keenan was being sarcastic? nah, he just didn't drink enough orange soda that day to keep Kel from running his mouth from inside Keenan. He's already pooped Kel out several thousand times throughout the years, though he keeps eating Kel, covered in poop and all, hopefully it doesn't happen on LIVE TV, maybe that would be good for ratings

13. I agree ENOUGH! We have a moron sect that is killing women for wanting a divorce, and stupid a$$ pea brained morons actually saying they would have an abusive person like Chris Brown on the show! Oh Heck no! NO, no, no no no!
NOT IN ANY COMMUNITY! WOMEN SPEAK OUT. WE HAVE TO HAVE EACH OTHERS BACKS!
WE are a SISTERHOOD! If it weren't for us there would be no men. Stand Strong Rhianna-our love goes to you. Please write us a slamming song like Arethra's RESPECT!

Let's BOYCOTT SNL till this A$$ gets fired or admits to his stupidity. Speak Up Lauren Michaels, You too Tina Fey! I hope no one watches your shows till the apologies role in!

14. How women act when they are lied to and disrespected. Come see fatty!

15. Dig a little on this bit of doucheness. I'm sure you'll find some abuse charges on Thompson. Pricks like him always enjoy throwing a good beatdown on their women! SNL sucks and so does this A-hole!
