When Jesse Eisenberg met Mark Zuckerberg, with a little Andy Samberg on the side. It’s Saturday Night Live spoofing The Social Network.
Eisenberg was hosting SNL this past weekend when the inevitable happened: Andy Samberg appeared pretending to be Mark Zuckerberg. But wait, who is that waiting backstage?
The real Zuckerberg of course. OK, so he fluffed his lines a little and looked as though he was expecting people to laugh more than they were, but he’s a geek, not an actor or comedian. So that’s excusable.
The thing about them never having met is codswallop. Oh sure, they probably hadn’t met until that day, but they would have rehearsed together before the show and got all the awkwardness out of the way then.
Still, it was fun, and having three people with Berg in their surname on screen at the same time was pretty cool.
