      besides having tiny hats these two skits are nothing alike.  the snl skit isn’t about tiny hats it’s about trying to one up someone and the tiny hats just added to the absurdity of it. - kind of funny the other is just about tiny hats and dolls - not funny at all if snl stole this from anyone it was the tiny horses from last weeks running wilde on fox.

      Further proof that SNL sucks. That show is so unfunny. I would not be surprized if a “Jeve Frule” character pops up soon.
