(Oct. 13) -- With all the buzz around Tina Fey's Sarah Palin impression, a 'Saturday Night Live' skit involving Andy Samberg imitating Mark Wahlberg was highly overlooked a few weeks ago ... but not by Wahlberg himself. Let's just say he's not very entertained with the spoof.
In an interview with the New York Post, Wahlberg talks about Samberg's "Barky Bark and the Donkey Bunch," in which Samberg does a stellar impression of the former rapper-turned-actor discussing life with a mule. Despite Wahlberg's claims that "it wasn't like Tina Fey doing Sarah Palin, that's for sure," the impression is flawless in our eyes.

Wahlberg goes on to further slam 'SNL,' saying it "hasn't been funny for a long time." He even says that he's been asked "to do the show a ton of times," but turned the offers down.
"I used to watch it when Eddie Murphy was there and Joe Piscopo and Bill Murray," he said. "I don't even know who's on the show now."

FIGHT!

    Andy Samberg's seemingly harmless impression of him on 'Saturday Night Live' didn't sit well with Mark Wahlberg, who told the NY Post that "it wasn't like Tina Fey doing Sarah Palin, that's for sure." He went on to say he's turned down offers to do the late night staple "a ton of the times."

    Roger Ebert vs. Lou Lumenick: Thyroid cancer has literally left Ebert speechless, so when his sightline was obstructed during a screening this week, the critic tried repeatedly to use tapping and gestures to get the attention of the guy in front of him. That dude was rival critic Lou Lumenick, who probably didn't think it through before hitting Ebert on the leg.

I love Mark Wahlberg and his brother soooo much, but I was in stitches laughing at this. Nobody likes to get ridiculed, but then again you can't take yourself too seriously too. My co-workers do impressions of me all the time and they are pretty funny. And btw, the snl guy sounded JUST like him lol.

I agree with the majorty... I used to watch the original SNL & it was funny, new, different but since the original cast left it has gotten more & more boring & less funny every year until it only has people who think they are funny but would be booed off the stage in even the cheapest bar n town. I have a lot of trouble tryng to imagine what idiot actually decides to hire let alone pay these people. Maybe they just get them off the street.

SNL has lost their touch. Each skit is one joke after another... without a punchline. What are they thinking when they write that crap? Any talent that the show has is wasted on poor writing.
