I can't even breathe I'm laughing so hard. Not as funny as Peyton, but pretty damn entertaining!

    He's OK, better than I thought he'd be. Certainly not as funny as Peyton. I'm more looking forward to Will Ferrell next week and Mick Jagger on the season finale.

    His courtroom skit was probably his funniest one.

    Will is going to be great next week.

    I thought he was pretty good. I chuckled a few times and with SNL the way it has been in recent years, that's hard to come by! Peyton's "United Way" commercial skit was definitely funnier than the "Little Brothers" one Eli did.

    I didn't think last nights show was funny at all. Eli just comes off as such a tool, and was not funny. That Cheech and Chong skit was just painful to watch. The show hasn't been good in a long time, I blame Seth Meyers. Seth is the absolute worst head writer the show has ever had. I don't understand why Lorne Michaels keeps him around. It seems the only time the show is remotely funny is when past cast members come back. I only hope Will Ferrel writes his own skits next week, and keeps that no talent Seth Meyers far away.

    People have been saying that for ages. Even when Tina Fey was head writer. And I think you are giving a little too much clout to the title of "Head Writer". Tina Fey once said that the title is pretty much honorary. There is still a staff of writers, and the cast which often write many of their own sketches. The Head Writer is basically the liaison between all the writers/cast and Lorne. At the end of the day it is Lorne who decides what gets on the air.

    As somebody who doesn't care too much for Eli, I was content with his performance as well. Was he great? No. But he did pretty good.

    I never expect much when an athlete hosts SNL, they're notoriously bad going back to Fran Tarkenton in Season 2. Joe Montana and Wayne Gretzky are tied in my book for worst hosting job on SNL. A few have done OK, like Deion Sanders. But I can only think of one athlete who hit it out of the park, and that was Peyton. Unless you count The Rock as an athlete, because he's great on SNL.

    Will Farrell will kill it,it's almost impossible that he couldn't! Watched the Will/Christopher Walken more cowbell skit for the hundredth time the other night....classic!
    I will walk w/my hands bound
    I will walk w/my face blood

    I think it's time for the return of Ted Brogan
