The Chronic of Narnia -- SNL Skit

Funny SNL skit. I saw it when it first aired, it actually woke me up and I couldn't stop laughing. I can see most of you bashing it but it's good dumb fun.

(mods - I know, it's tv show but it's referencing a movie)

Merry Christmas everyone!!!!

The Chronic of Narnia

Guess not. I thought it was hilarious. ITunes is also offering a free download.

it's not the chronic of Narnia.. it's the CHRONIC-WHAT-cles OF NARNIA!


The lonley island really is the best thing to hit SNL for a while now. A shame they waste their talent with such a shitty rest of SNL cast and crew.

Hey Jack,

How are the Lonely Island guys associated with SNL? Did they hire them all? Or are they just getting some recognition because of Andy Samberg?

Nevermind I found it on NBC's website:

"Samberg’s “Lonely Island” cohorts Jorma Taccone and Akiva Schaffer now write for SNL as well."

Cool. I really like Samberg. He has potential of being their next star.

Waste their talent?

All they've done is recycle their old bits for SNL.

And Samberg needs a fucking haircut.

BTW, as indicated on the SNL thread, the video is a free download over at iTunes.

Search for "Lazy Sunday".

And even recycled old bits are too good for what SNL is these days.

True. The highlight of the Baldwin/Shakira(well, Shakira aside) episode was the brief clip of the Chevy Chase & Richard Pryor "honkey" skit as tribute for his passing.

BTW, I'm with FiveO. It was funny as a rap video starring goofy white guys, but the lyrics and tie in with Narnia are lost on me.

Really? A Gangsta rap about going to see Narnia -- nothing? Or "I'm like Aaron Burr when I'm droppin' the Hamiltons!" -- nothing?

Ya see, "the chronic" is a slang expression for marijuana, and lots of rappers make references to drug use in their songs --Dr. Dre even titled one his albums "The Chronic", but in this parody, they are rapping about a pro-Christian children's movie.

I haven't seen Narnia but I found that funny. A "hard core" rap about seeing Narnia, sneaking in snacks and getting cupcakes. Nice
