SNL stars Armisen, Meyers, Hader reunite for parody series

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) — The shaggy-haired rocker who set up his amplifier in the posh hotel lobby looked a lot like Fred Armisen. And wasn’t that Seth Meyers snapping his picture?

It was indeed a bewigged Armisen getting in a few guitar licks and Meyers recording the moment, part of the promotion for IFC’s new “Documentary Now!”

The series parodying famed documentaries and genres reunites former “Saturday Night Live” colleagues Armisen, Meyers and Bill Hader, with the trio serving as writers and producers (with Rhys Thomas) and Armisen and Hader also starring.

“I love that we figured out a way to keep working together,” said Meyers, who fitted the project in with his duties as an NBC late-night host.
