    @fattiefatty2by4: Ah! I said in the post, "of the past 10 years." Mostly because the NBC site made it difficult to get clips from beyond that- every Gilda Radner clip I clicked wasn't working, sadly. So I stuck with the late 90's/00's.

    I saw Garofalo describe her SNL experience once--I can't remember whether this was a routine or part of an on-camera interview. She compared it to when the U.S. government gave smallpox-infested blankets to Native Americans. She held out her hands, adopted an expression of profound gratitude, and delivered a hearty "Thanks! ... I don't feel so good."


    Chris Elliott, like Andy Kaufman before him, has a brand of comedy that seems to rely on making people profoundly uncomfortable, then taking their confused, nervous laughter as evidence that he's funny. I hope his daughter is, you know, actually funny. She must be an It Girl, since she's barely old enough to drink legally, which I believe a recent Jez story revealed to be one of the It prerequisites.

    The Right Honourable Phyllis Diller!

    i'm completely torn by Kristen Wiig. I *want* to like her, and sometimes she's really, really funny. but it seems like 90% of her characters are her twitching and trailing off as she speaks...which might be funny once (as in her McCain rally lady) but gets old after a while. do i just lack a sense of humor?

    I don't think anyone has yet reached, let alone surpassed, the amazing talent that was Jan Hooks.

    Joel McHale gave Michaela a shoutout on the Soup last night. So if Joel approves of someone, she must rule.

    I am so nervous for tonight. And I'll be honest, I am EXTREMELY skeptical at the braless 21 year old with the daddy connections.


    sigh.


    cant wait to see what happens tonight (OMG PAUL RUDD).

    @ineffable.me: just want to let you know that ever since you started calling her that over at Gawker, I have adopted the moniker--she will be regarded as "the braless 21 year old" until she proves she can do something, hopefully sooner than later! I will definitely be watching tonight.

    If they want to succeed, then they need to go out there, be themselves, be funny, and upstage the guys at every opportunity.

    The Debbie Downer with Lindsay Lohan is one of my absolute favorite SNL skits, because EVERYONE, not just Fallon, has major issues controlling their giggling.

    God, please let these girls be funnier than Casey Wilson. It's not that Casey isn't untalented, she's just kind of there. I'd also like to see more people of color join the cast.

    I love Tina's expression in that cover photo. It seems like a combination of being entirely appropriate in expressing the question on the cover, and a little bit of "WTF am I doing here?"
