What will Saturday Night Live joke about when it premieres this weekend (11:30 pm, NBC)? Election season is over and they keep firing funny people. Thank God we still have Andy Samberg's digital shorts to look forward to.
SNL fires Michaela Watkins and Casey Wilson
Though the new SNL promo featuring Samberg and host Megan Fox made us crack a smile (namely that "keep it in your pants" bit), we're hoping for something at least as funny as these past digital-video hits. Check out our top 10 favorites and then weigh in on yours:

The toughest get in showbiz these days? Susan Boyle.
While MTV has secured such big-names as Denzel Washington, Kiefer Sutherland and, uh, Triumph the Insult Comic Dog for Sunday's Movie Awards, it failed in its quest to lock in the Britain's Got Talent singing sensation.

Justin Timberlake and Andy Samberg have come up with another gift that just keeps on giving.
Having previously delivered the Emmy-winning Saturday Night Live digital short "D**k In a Box," the singer host and funnyman collaborated once again for this weekend's show.
In "Motherlover," JT and Samberg's hirsute alter egos decide that, having forgotten to shop for Mother's Day, they'll "take care" of each other's moms. Yes, in that way.
Suffice it to say, this viral clip contains barely bleeped obscenities and mature subject matter.
Perhaps the best part? Playing said about-to-get-lucky moms are Susan Sarandon and Patricia Clarkson.
In his encore as guest host, Timberlake also brought back The Barry Gibb Talk Show (with a visiting Jimmy Fallon), reprised his singing street pitchman, and performed with musical guest Ciara (who sure knows how to do a split.)
Watch "Motherlover" after the jump.

Lorne Michaels may be the head honcho over at SNL, but Andy Samberg is the boss. In his latest digi-short, guest host Seth Rogen interviews Samberg for his performance review, which includes his run-through of a typical day: calling corporate, remembering birthdays, buying a gun and eating chicken strips. (Wait, what was the part before the chicken?)

Days before Andy Samberg's Lonely Island debut album, Incredibad, hits shelves on Tuesday, the boys behind SNL 's digital shorts released their new single "I'm On a Boat" as a digital short on Saturday Night Live. The clip features Samberg and pal Akiva Schaffer as they hit the open waters for a nautical joyride alongside hip-hop artist T-Pain. Brace yourselves, because they've brought their swim trunks and "flippy-floppies." Oh, the things you find in the bottom of a cereal box.
Watch the video after the jump!
