“Saturday Night Live” had a lot of faces to introduce in its season 39 premiere, with a full six new cast members. In her opening monologue, Tina Fey brought the newbies out on stage and made them dance as a sort of baptism by fire.
But a sketch or two later, the audience got another chance to meet some of the new faces in the game show “New Cast Member Or Arcade Fire?”
Check it out above and play along. It’s actually quite difficult.

An alligator hunter in Arkansas is still riding off the adrenaline rush of catching a record-breaking gator this week.
Drew Baker, of Little Rock, caught the massive 1,100-pound gator with a harpoon, wrestled him for about 40 minutes and then shot him in the head. Not bad for only his second alligator hunt.
The nearly 14-foot gator was a state record-breaker by six inches, according to CNN News Wire.

One of our favorite Weekend Update characters returned for the season 39 premiere, and he didn’t disappoint. Drunk Uncle joined Seth Meyers and new co-anchor Cecily Strong at the desk to talk back-to-school.
As always, D.U. summed up how things were different when he was a kid with succinct eloquence: “You went to school ’til you were eight, and then you got married to a factory.”
Ah, the good old days. Watch the clip above for a brilliant performance by Bobby Moynihan, as well as another cameo by Aaron Paul as Jesse Pinkman.
There’s definitely been a surge of interest in living small over the last decade, but the concepts behind the lifestyle have actually been appreciated for much longer. In fact, Kisho Kurokawa was one of the founders of a movement in the ’60s called “Metabolism” which was also based on the idea of flexible design and architecture. In 1972, his Nakagin Capsule Tower was built, which has 140 “capsule” apartments that were meant to be renewed and replaced every 25 years.
Fast forward almost half a century, well after “Metabolism” died out: The building exists, but Kurokawa’s intents for the micro spaces were not carried out, and because of structural issues, it may soon be demolished. Visual artist Noritaka Minami has photographed the current uses of the space — which range from cheap housing alternatives for families, offices and weekend retreats. Scroll through his stunning images below.
Rihanna appeared on a special “Alan Carr: Chatty Man” this Friday, walking out to thunderous applause, and talking with the host about how she’s grown sick of partying despite her love of Carnival in Barbados.
She also commented on how “pot never goes out of style,” and spoke about life on the road — which has included a “pathetic” recent sex drought.
The space under the stairs in two-story homes gets a bad rap for being dark, cramped, and dirty. But with a little ingenuity and the right inspiration, those tight quarters make for a perfect home office area.
If all that’s needed from an office at home is a little space to spread out, pay bills, and answer emails, any of these under the stairway offices below can tackle the task. Add extras like a cork wall, bookshelves, a statement chair, and some eye catching artwork to totally elevate your under-the-stairs style.
CHICAGO — Illinois lawmakers are considering a tax incentive package in hopes of persuading agribusiness giant Archer Daniels Midland Company not to move its global headquarters out of the state.
The proposal filed Friday in the Illinois House would give ADM a 10 percent break on utility taxes for up to 30 years and a credit against some state income tax withholdings. The value of the incentives was not disclosed.
