Anyone catch SNL last night. I thought Brian Williams was pretty Funny. There was also a suprise appearance from Barack Obama who was not funny. Williams can act though. For what its worth, I really haven't watch much SNL since early on in college 6-8 years ago. It seemed better than it was back then.

If you have not seen the SNL mentioned above you will get to if you watch within the next four weeks. From what I understand they only picked up 10 nights or less of new shows. It is not the same as before. I only watch when Justin Timberlake is on because he is really funny.

Haven't seen Timberlake but I can imagine he'd be funny. Are you referring to the writer's strike or something else?

no. there are apparently only 10 new snl episodes this year....they draw it out by playing either 1 or 2 repeats in between the new shows....they've done this for years... i think they are supposed to have more than 10 this year but i'm not sure...10 may be right....the show has normally run from end of sept to may.

snl is signed until 2012 apparently...oops...

snl has been pretty unwatchable for some time. its just not funny....sure they'll have a funny skit every once in a while but not usually...

this one with brian williams made me semi chuckle a few times...but still overall unfunny....

I think it's been a lot better the past two seasons than before. Tina Fey ruined the show.

to me its still just as unwatchable...

andy samberg i thought was going to be a great addition. The lonely island videos and parodies he used to do were funny....but he really isn't that good....the other guy they signed that does the impressions is kind of creepy...he can be funny

jason sudaikis is good. the mya is bad, unfortunately as luconn mentioned before, she is the only one that can do every race so they keep her, regardless of how bad she does it. Fat Albert has to go...he is terrible...seth meyer sucks and darrell hammond is out of place...

it needs a serious overhaul
