Saturday Night Live mocks recent Dumbledore revelation
The second came in a segment where JK Rowling is being interviewed about Dumbledore on CNN's Larry King Live. She tells Larry that several scenes were cut from the movie which gave away his sexuality. Each of the scenes were then played, focusing around Dumbledore telling McGonagall about his man love problems.
UPDATE: Clip #1 from the Weekend Update segment | Clip #2 from the Larry King segment

no. 1! hog warts hahhaha
funny! top 5! YES!
those are horrible jokes on their parts. shame. 4
No, it wasn't funny guys. Which is a shame since they're SNL. They could have done MUCH better. It was like they just threw it in there just to mention it, it was the lamest attempt to be funny. Ever.
I think there funny I don't take them serouisly. I love harry potter but give them a brake tons of people say that sort of stuff everyday. Its just for entertainment and it shows how popular HP is because they could have been making fun of the goverment.
6th? Woo hoo I'm being dumb for once :)
It wasn't funny, it wasn't something to joke about like that.
yes! twice in top ten on smae article! :_)
HAHA hope someone sends in the clips! i love snl
:-( This is one of the reasons JKR shouldn't have said.
well it doesnt really matter as Dumbledore is still Dumbledore no matter what his sexuality
13hplover13: I totally agree that it doesn't change how I think of Dumbledore. But most of the comments I've heard about it, in the media and at school, have been terrible jokes like this sounds like.
If jo wasnt expecting this shes an idiot. Ill check it out but generally, for like the past 5 years anyway, SNL hasn't been funny
Hey any cheesecakians here? Grinds?
someone find it!! i want to see ittt!!!!
hey missmalfoy! whats up?
SNL is funny... but MADTV is better!!! :P
heyy
Heya!!! im fine...poor Dumby!!! can't believe stupid saturday night live (even though i've never seen it) but i guess it was gonna happen. Hey grinds tell me your reasons for hatin laura whatsherface
which Laura are we talking about?
hi cheesecakes! Laura who?
At least it was better than the parody of Emerson and Geraldo
tell me youre reasons for hating laura!!! I ASKED FIRST!!!
i feel so bad for jkr. why do people have to make a big deal out of it.....
Blah. I've seen so much like this, it's getting old. The media won't be quiet about it, will they? It's like they just threw that in, as a way of making sure EVERYBODY knew about it.
Ohhh okay.....well........i just do. I mean, you know when you just hate someone? Like how people hate Voldy? yeah well thats it. There i explained, now its your turn =D
touche
I actually thought the idea of Dumbledore at a gay bar was really, really funny. But the "Hog Warts" joke was stupid and I think they could've done much better than that. I don't understand why some people are so offended by the fact that they were making fun of it at all. I mean, it's SNL...they make fun of recent news stories, and Jo outing Dumbledore is a recent news story. At least they weren't sending out the message that being gay is BAD, just poking fun at the idea that a very respectable, brilliant, old wizard might have once gone to a gay bar. XD
SPEW!!
hey guys!! art here! grinds it fixed eh?
What does "touche" mean? is it french? stop talking in code!!!
it means er....i don't really know actually...
NORSE! FOOL!
hola everyone!
hola hpfan!
Norse? wtf?? siriusly grinds, speak english please. FOOL!
The clip DOES work. Go to: http://www.nbc.com/Saturd ay_Night_Live/Then click 'Dumbledore' and let it load. Go to the 'Select Episode' at the bottom of the page & click on the Brian Williams picture. Click on one of the new pictures that have come up. (It doesn't matter which one because they all make it start at the beginning.) Now, look at the little timer bar thing (you know the shaded bar right next to the time. It's the red thing on youtube..) See all the gray markers in the bar? Click on the space RIGHT AFTER the 2nd one & there's Dumbledore!!I thought SNL was great & for anyone who says it was inappropriate, you're stuck up. Honestly, it's just a little fun. They do gay skits all the time & there was nothing distasteful about the Dumbledore one at all.
YOU ASKED IF TOUCHE WAS FRENCH AND I SAID IT WAS NORSE! MAYBE IF YOU UNDERSTOOD ENGLISH, FOOL! yeah ari its working now hooray.
hey mrsroonil_wazlib. nd missmalfoy and grindwald, whtcha all tlkin aboutt..?
Okay *sarcasm*! sorry if i dont know norse, it sounds like "horse" to me lol and you are the fool not me, so huh.
Hi Mrsroonil_wazlib! and everybody! Touche = French; in fencing, it's when someone's foil touches you; so in conversation it's when someone makes a point or pokes a hole in an argument or something like that.
estamos hablando del skit y del pozo de SNL que no sé qué más realmente no he estado pagando a atención
it also means something like 'bingo' er...mrsroonil? transalition please? pretty please with cheesecake on the top?
norse sounds like something on a ship... and hey speww!
Haha sorry i was trying out the translator on my iGoogle
STOP.. NOW!
The clip of the larry king sketch does work, but YOU NEED TO USE INTERNET EXPLORER and watch ads before it shows up. I would put it on youtube, but they get taken down pretty quickly.
you guise dont know of the ancient NORSE?
norse hmm....nope
hi hpfanx! ari - stop what?
