    Renee Zellweger is the Host in this April 2001 "Hour-and-a-half" of 'Saturday Night Live' 2001.
    Molly Shannon and Jim Fallon play The Chief Nurse's Emergency Assistants. Let's Review the Live Show from
    April 14th, 2001. hide show

    First, Renee Zellweger in my guest appearance on my
    "Survivor Stories" on paper and new videotape soon,
    hosted this episode of S.N.L. 2001 at Rockefeller Ctr. in
    Metropolitan New York City.
    Watch for Rhythm & Blues icon and TV One TV star "Eve" in
    3 skits. Eve did 2 songs as acapella with drums. 1 was a
    comedy sketch from scratch scripted. Zellweger did 5
    sketches as a guest host/star in the making.
    Ms. Z. was my #2 motherly role model to #1 Leah Remini who
    checked into a Central Cleveland, OH bench just to check
    my Arkansas-Razorbacks-Hoops-colored casual attire which is
    right for my starting job as assistant investigator
    alongside Leah's character Kellie Ann Garrett in my own
    pilot called, "The Cleveland Cops."
    "Zellweger on SNL" is a fan favorite in 2001.

Episode Cast and Crew

  • Sketches cut after dress rehearsal: A sketch about a group playing a science fiction game; "Five Finger Discount," a short film where people steal dogs; a sketch where two people (Tracy Morgan, Maya Rudolph) help a woman (Renee Zellweger) get Black hair; and a sketch where Woodrow (Tracy Morgan) woos Renee into his sewer to sing. []
  • Sandra Bullock was originally supposed to host this episode, but she dropped out at the last minute. []
  • Molly Shannon makes a cameo appearance during the "Crazy Doctor" sketch. She had been in the studio earlier in the week when the cast taped the "SNL Mother's Day 2001" special, and they decided to add her to the sketch. []
  • Tina Fey: Mariah Carey last week signed a recording contract with Virgin Records for 25 million dollars an album. The signing is considered a coup for the company, although Virgin Records will now have to change its name to Skank Records. []
  • Tina Fey: The Bush family cat, Ernie, missing for weeks, turned up early Tuesday morning wandering down Hollywood's Avenue of the Stars ...coked out of its mind. []
  • Tina Fey: The FBI will install high-tech scrambling devices to prevent people from picking up the closed circuit broadcast of Timothy McVeigh's execution. Which means that on May 16th some young man that thinks he's watching scrambled porn may actually be masturbating to a lethal injection. Whatever works. []
