Yeah I know it's not as good as it was. And yes it's still on the air, blah blah blah. But how did I miss this?:

Whether you're a fan or not you have to admit that's pretty fucking cool to hold the show at UCBT with the writer's strike going on. For those who haven't been it's a tiny ass theatre with poor sound and lighting. Smallest audience to ever witness SNL! Hope they release the video at some point!

EDIT: Sorry this was intended for the AET!!!! Mods, please move!

    I think Dratch and Horatio Sanz were there because they have nothing else going on. Actually, Horation performs at upright pretty frequently. Dratch was actually shafted by Tina Fey. She hired her as a regular on 30 Rock only to have her written in as a quirky character here and there.

    Uncensored SNL! Probably was better than anything in awhile.

    That woman, Tina Fey, is one sexy lady.
    She's my personal number 1 celebrity crush.

    She reminds me of a teacher or librarian.
    Just something about her just makes me drool.

    snl needs to accept what it has become and trim its run time down to an hour. they simply don't have the talent to do an hour and a half. that's the problem. there are ideas in there, and funny moments, but they are buried between so many terrible skits, good skits that last way too long, and other filler to be effective.

    What do you think about keeping it an hour and a half but having two musical guests? Or perhaps one musical guest and one stand-up comedian? Not that it's been discussed, just a thought I've had about improving the show.

    She was already off the show, wasn't she? If she wasn't he sure as hell let her go the very next year! Plus, both are his shows, I wonder why he would care?
