The Weasley Twins: "We've got to go smash some bludgers."
Harry: "You're going to play Quiddich?"
The Weasley Twins: "Um... Noooooo."

When Rachel's lip started quivering during the first Debbie Downer close-up (cue horns), I had a feeling she'd start laughing the second time around. Even Amy and Fred couldn't hold it together. Pretty funny 
Next week: Snoop Dogg and Avril Lavigne
I wonder if any of the sketches will involve weed by any chance. Avril will probably confront Amy doing her Avril impression in a skit.

I’m going to give a to this one. Lohan was just okay as host, but some of the skits were very good.
Bush & Cheney
Bush prepares crib notes for his testimony for the 9-11 commission. Pretty bad. Forte as Bush.
Monologue
Lohan jokes about her feud with Hillary Duff (Dratch). Avril Lavigne and Whitney Houston (why?) show up as well.
Ad for Female Back Tattoo Removal
Standard commercial parody.
Jarrett’s Room
Better than the average bit with these characters, due to the pot-smoking robot.
Harry Potter
Potter (Dratch) and the other male characters marvel at Hermione’s (Lohan) growth spurt over the summer. Lohan was showing major cleavage here. Hilarious, and the breasts were nice too. Great spot with the big magnifying glass!
Billy Joel
Sanz as a demented Billy Joel driving some girls to a Hamptons party, singing his songs and running over things. Sanz was good.
Weekend Update
“No matter where you live, retired sports stars can kill you.” Sanz came in for a totally unfunny and endless GED bit.
Debbie Downer
The premise was Dratch as Downer, ruining everyone’s good time at DisneyWorld by bringing up sad things. Everyone completely broke character and laughed throughout, which ruined the whole Downer concept of the bit. I still think this is unprofessional, but it was kind of funny watching Dratch struggle vainly to maintain composure.
Club Traxx
European video show. This bit has been on a few times, and it has never been funny. Lohan reads her lines like she’s at a junior high talent show.
Slumber party
Poehler was excellent here as an annoying, hyper child. I hope we see this character again.
Adult Movie Awards
Televised on NBC, so only the opening and closing were shown due to editing. Quick filler bit.

Some of the sketches were crap, but the Hermione bit and Debbie Downer disaster had me laughing harder than I have in years. Jimmy and Horatio so willingly break character that it's not that special, but Dratch was trying so damn hard not to do it, and it made it all the more funny. Horatio was literally crying he was laughing so hard. First he wiped the tears on his shirt, and then he started wiping them with the Mickey Waffles.

I have to say, this was much better than anything else recent. Good God, boobies. The only skits that didn't have me laughing my ass off were the adult film awards, the opener, and Club Traxx. How awesome was it that Horatio Sanz had to lean out of the car to knock off the mailbox? I couldn't stop laughing. Also, Debbie Downer had me crying. G'damn, I have a new respect for Dratch...that was funny as hell.

Lindsay Loyhan and her freckled front yard just hit my radar screen in a BIIIIIG way. Hammond was fine as Cheney, while Amy Poelher again demonstrated her versatiliy as the tattooed Stepford wife and Avril Lavigne. She is the Best in Show these days, and along with the underrated Armisten is why I at least tape the show.

I missed the Harry Potter skit but I gotta thank Patman for the link.
Funny, but it made me feel a little dirty marvelling at her assets. I'm almost twice her age.
The whole Debbie Downer skit was hilarious but I gotta agree with people that Fallon and Sanz always break out of characters and start laughing for no reason.
