SNL Digital Short

An SNL Digital Short is a short comedic or musical video segment created for airing on NBC's Saturday Night Live.

Most Digital Shorts are produced by The Lonely Island and written by Akiva Schaffer, Jorma Taccone and Andy Samberg in collaboration with SNL hosts and cast members. The segments were originally recorded with consumer grade digital video cameras and edited on personal computers. It is usual for the episode's hosts and musical guests (the latter on rarer occasions) to take part in the episode's short, and several shorts have included celebrity cameos.

The shorts generally take fewer than five days to complete. Schaffer has directed all the shorts and Taccone along with his brother, Asa, have produced music as necessary. So far SNL has aired 46 digital shorts, eight of which are performed by The Lonely Island and eleven of which are the multiple part MacGruber sketches. Many of the musical shorts were remastered and released in The Lonely Island's album, Incredibad, or created specifically for the album and then featured in shorts during the 2008-2009 season.

With the departure of Samberg in 2012, it has been speculated that the era of the explicit SNL Digital Short is over, although a Digital Short was released on January 26, 2013.

Akiva Schaffer
Jorma Taccone[9]
Akiva Schaffer[9] April 15, 2006 Hader and Samberg pitch to SNL executive producer Lorne Michaels their new ultra low-budget Digital Short, Laser Cats!

Murray Hill Unknown Jorma Taccone September 20, 2008 In this spoof of teen dramas, a young man (James Franco) is talked to by a girl (Kristen Wiig).

Sly Dunbar
Robbie Shakespeare
Akiva Schaffer October 25, 2008 Samberg plays a college student who has converted to Rastafari, who sings boastfully (and stereotypically) about the culture, while being aware that he's not fit for it when he walks by a group of actual Rastas.

Music produced by Sly & Robbie.[18]
Everyone's A Critic Unknown Akiva Schaffer November 15, 2008 In a clip from Paul Rudd's new movie, Samberg romantically paints him nude and then Rudd returns the favor. While selling the painting at an auction, it is shown to be so graphic that everyone who sees it begins convulsing violently, vomiting, bleeding from the eyes, and committing violent acts of suicide. Armisen appears as the auctioneer, Wilson as the interviewer, Hader and Wiig as Indiana Jones and Marion Ravenwood respectively (they appear tied to a post with their eyes closed while everyone else is dying after seeing the painting, parodying the ending of Raiders of the Lost Ark).
Virgania Horsen's Pony Express Unknown Akiva Schaffer December 6, 2008 Wiig reprises her role as Virgania Horsen in a crudely-made commercial for her new business, which consists of mail delivery by horse. *Note the original Virginia Horsen short did have the Digital Short title in front of it.

Doogie Howser Theme Unknown Akiva Schaffer January 10, 2009 Neil Patrick Harris and the entire cast perform the theme to Doogie Howser, M.D..

[[Laser Cats 4-Ever!] Unknown Akiva Schaffer Jorma Taccone January 31, 2009 Steve Martin walks into the office of Lorne Michaels with yet another half baked Laser Cats episode.

Akiva Schaffer Jorma Taccone April 4, 2009 The Lonely Island rap about what it's like for the boss of a big company.
