Best part of Saturday\'s episode.

I think SNL should make the transition to more pre-recorded sketches. I know the live stuff is tradition but the pre-recorded stuff has consistently been the funniest part of the show for years.

If anything more recorded sketches means that they can put more effort into the live sketches. Its a win/win all around.

... I am all for either goin\' pre-recorded or taking it off the air totally. The last seasons have been terrible.

THey need to shrink the show to an hour.  I\'ve been saying this for years and they just don\'t want to listen.

I for one, hated Mad-TV. It seems to be, at this point, SNL is just riding off it\'s past.

Yeah, guys like Alec Baldwin and Jack Black used to be guaranteed funny. If the cast somehow manages to ruin a Christopher Walken episode I may be forced to firebomb the studios.

After Will ferrell left the show tanked fast, kind of like it did in the mid 80\'s

The mid 90\'s to early 2000 or so was a good run, but until they fire 1/2 that cast it ain\'t getting better anytime soon.

And for gods sake take the females off of the news desk

Actually the chicks doing the news are the only things I like.  Tina Fey is a great writer and the blonde chick (Name escapes me) is funny as well.

Norm > most everybody else on Weekend Update. Certainly in the modern era.

Yeah. I liked Norm McDonald.  He got screwed.  Colin Quinn was/is the worst.  I like the chicks though.  Dennis Miller was good too.

Oh, the women are good. Dennis Miller is great. Kevin Nealon was good.

Colin Quinn, though.. ugh. It almost completely wrecked his reputation.

Colin Quinn wasn\'t funny on remote control.  
Wasn\'t funny  on SNL
Wasn\'t funny on his own tv show.
Isn\'t funny ever.

I\'ll never undertand how in the heck he is on tv.
