SNL: Season Closer

Last thoughts on SNL for this season. Alec Baldwin although hosting for the 15th time was not enough to save SNL. The season closed with a typical boring and not funny show.


The fact that they started out the show with a bit on the Gulf oil spill was in such bad taste given the enormity of the ecological incident. It only got worse from there. I won't even bother to comment on Tom Petty - who is my musical artists I don't like list. It wouldn't be fair, since I'm far too biased.

So we'll wait to next fall to see who will host the opener. Time will tell if Lorne Michaels will continue to be swayed by the audience and bring in someone that is lobbied for, or stick to their usual suspects.
