Tonight's TV Hot List: Saturday, May 16, 2009

Saturday Night Live
11:29 pm/ET NBC
Where there's Will, there's a way. The long-lasting late-night show closes its 34th season by turning to an old friend. Serving as host is erstwhile SNL player Will Ferrell, star of the forthcoming film Land of the Lost. Ferrell likely won't get lost on the familiar Studio 8H stage, where he roamed for seven years and mined sketch-comedy gold with recurring characters such as George W. Bush, James Lipton and perky cheerleader Craig Buchanan. And let's hope he plays more cowbell. Rock punkers Green Day, hot off the release of their 21st Century Breakdown CD, storm the stage in their third SNL appearance.

Read on for previews of MADtv, Kobe: Doin' Work, Preakness Stakes and Beverly Hills Groomer.  read full article

Premise: Years of sitting courtside for Knicks games at Madison Square Garden have refined filmmaker Spike Lee's eye for athleticism and star power. Both qualities are captured in glorious detail in his chronicling of a day "on the job" for Lakers star Kobe Bryant. Cameras double-team the 2008 NBA MVP in action against rival San Antonio Spurs, from his arrival at L.A.'s Staples Center to his departure, along with some dynamic in-game audio. The ground-level view in particular should give Kobe fans and haters alike a new appreciation for the 13-year veteran's silky-smooth scoring abilities and defensive effort over the course of 40-plus rougher-than-you-realize minutes on the court.
