[Whoa!] Saturday Night "Not-So" Live

I am damn tired. Has been such a long journey and its hell weary on the soul. So I finally get a rare moment to chill in front of TV (not where I stay though - I got conned but that's another story) and laugh my head out with Sat Nite Live on CNBC Asia. It's not really live, it's a "the best of" selection ... which means its probably been carefully screened for Asian sensitivities.

This week - you have Will Ferrell returning as host, and though this time it lacks a political sketch I really enjoy some satire to relax. Perhaps the most ironic of all is that its proudly sponsored by Tourism Msia. ... a show that is so New Yorkian - that its starting credits and montages are packed to the brim with NY scenes, NY landscapes, NY lifestyle and values .... is sponsored by Tourism Msia.

10 out of 10 for the sponsorship my life is defined by some bright moments of satire and sardonic humor; but -101 for the marketing brilliance.
