Dr. Evil hijacks SNL to diss North Korea and Sony

Dr. Evil is a bumbling wannabe super villain, but even he thinks North Korea is failing at this whole evildoer business.

Former Saturday Night Live star Mike Myers returned to the show this weekend in the character of his Austin Powers bad guy, hijacking the broadcast to deliver an important message: "I've preempted this program because I'm furious that North Korea and Sony Pictures have given evil a bad name." --Jon Terbush
