Reply #15: I think that

SNL won't be 'great' again until we see something like a Palin/Jindal ticket emerge and then only if Tina Fey and Kenneth the Page come on over to SNL for some special appearances. And I am not so sure I should have used the word 'great' in my previous sentence, since SNL political skits were pretty good during the last election cycle but not much else of the show... the bulk of the shows haven't been really great at all like they were in the 70s.

With all the great comedians and writers out there these days I really don't understand why SNL is so lame most of the time.
When the only thing that is fairly good each week is the opening political skit and weekend update - that isn't saying much.
Thank God for DVRs and the fast forward button on my remote.
