Philly’s Own Flower Show Gains SNL Street Cred

The Philadelphia Flower Show gained some street cred on SNL.  In the clip, Golden Globe host Ricky Gervais (played by Jason Sudeikis) hassles a plant.

See the clip on the Flower Show Website here. (Clearly we don’t care, but there’s disclaimers. So we’ll repeat. Please note: this video contains content that may not be suitable for all audiences.)

Don’t worry, Philly’s not the only target – “Gervais” also insults Kids’ Choice Awards, The Westminster Dog Show, & the BET Music Awards.
