So will SNL do the Stewart/Cramer face-off?

[Nancy Waterman]

NBC pretty much banned it from Hardball, Countdown, and Rachel's show.
And SNL is on NBC. I hope so, but I have my doubts.

3. But SNL regularly makes fun of NBC/MSNBC/CNBC stuff

How many parodies have they done of Tweety, Keith, and Rachel in recent months?

My question would be... who do they have that could do a passable Jon Stewart impersonation?

Aside from Darrel Hammond (who's usually great at whomever he imitates) their impersonations have been pretty weak in recent years.

7. The guy who played Rahm last week could do it

4. I certainly hope so. They did a great job years ago

with their skits on Shana Alexander and James Kilpatrick. Some of the funniest TV ever.

6. "Jane,

you ignorant slut."

That was, I bet, the first time the word "slut" was uttered on national TV...................

5. Good question..........

I must remember to tune it in.

Thanks for the reminder.

I bet they do................

8. Brokaw, too.

I've never seen any comic 'do' Stewart; while a parody of Cramer sounds like fish in a barrel. This could be very, very good, or very, very bad.

9. I doubt it

NBC won't laugh at themselves.
