The Scoop for Oct. 27, 2020

You would think someone who made such a big impact on TV in one of the most popular sit coms ever would be a shoe in as a cast member for Saturday Night Live. Not so much for Lisa Kudrow from Friends. Before friends, she auditioned for SNL, it didn’t go great.
But of course she went on to host SNL…
Well, at least Friends was good.


It looks like Kazakhstan is done fighting the whole “Borat” thing.
They’re actually using Borat’s catchphrase in tourism ads.
“I like sex.”
No, not that one.
“Very Nice.”
I mean, it was only a matter of time.


Conan O’Brien got back from vacation last night, and it wasn’t a great first day back.
They got robbed.
Yep. Someone broke into the theater and stole some of their equipment. Maybe they should consider moving. I hear Kazakhstan is very nice.


Bonus Scoopage:
It’s nearly impossible to not love The Rock . . . especially when you see how much he loves his mama. Here he is singing “Happy Birthday” to her.
