'Saturday Night Live': Robert De Niro says to call him 'Bobby'

snl-deniro-promo.jpgRobert De Niro is hosting "Saturday Night Live" Saturday, Dec. 4, for the third time (He hosted in 2002 and 2004) and the show has just released promos for the episode.  

The promos are actually pretty good. In the first,we get to see De Niro bust a move as Kristen Wiig watches on. In the second, Wiig does a pretty good De Niro impression, saying "Hey, you talking to me?" De Niro asks, "Are you impersonating me?" "No, I was just squinting my eyes and wondering if you were talking to me," deadpans Wiig. The third promo also has more De Niro impersonations, including De Niro on De Niro. Here's hoping we see more De Niro impressions Saturday night. 

The fourth and final promo is our favorite. De Niro asks Wiig to call him "Bobby," then "Bob" before basically telling her just not to talk to him. Hey, it is Robert De Niro.

The musical guest that night is Diddy Dirty Money, a group made up of Sean "Diddy" Combs, Dawn Richards and Kaleena Harper.

Does anyone else remember what a terrible host DeNiro was? Both times it was clear he didn't know his lines. He stared off camera the entire show. Some of the sketches were actually funny, but his lack of preparation ruined them. A major disappointment from one of our greatest actors.

Love you, Bobby!
