Already looking forward to the Alec Baldwin ep.

For those of us who know Hugh Laurie from his younger, funny and sometimes very silly Brit Com days, I wonder if he will break out any characters like that tonight?

And if he does....will viewers who only know him from 'House' be amused or turned off by it?

Long live Fry and Laurie!

(Do you think Fry might show up?)

Love Fry and Laurie, but since they have no recognition in North America as a comedy team, I can't see him breaking out any characters.

I just hope Laurie can elevate bad material as well as JCR did.

I'm there the 2nd of dec. Nice eye candy and Borat himself

rumor has it that Borat will appear tonight

Now is on Borat!

And now, a cold opening... Borat-style.

Pretty funny.

Better than nearly everything the writers could come up with not using an outside guest.

..right after Hugh comes out, I listened closely to the audience applause and noticed a very quick fade. Sounded like a "canned" audience mixed in.

I did not expect that accent.

i noticed that too.

very odd.

I noticed that as well, which does not bode well.

Also, brightest f*cking map ever anyone?

Edited to add: Is it just me, or does Hugh Laurie appear to be going bald?
Edited to add 2: Patman noticed it as well, so apparently... yes.

Borat was probably one of the funniest opening on SNL in years. Schwing!

Hugh is really losing his hair in the back.

Oh great, first skit and it's based around a fart joke.

Yay for second grade humor!

SNL has been reduced to fart jokes - in their opening sketch no less.

I missed Borat on SNL!?

Why does God allow TV Funhouse to still be aired? It's as if he hates me...

What? No liberal media agenda huh?

I laughed my ass off...but of course....it ends badly as usual because they try for one extra joke.

This anthem bit is piss poor.

I think I need to buy a gun - to shoot myself.

definitely noticed that.. borat was great.. the american anthem thing is making me chuckle

also noticed during tv funhouse they popped up the fox mlb logo even though they weren't using it until the american anthem sketch..someone is screwing up big time tonight

The thermal footage of wind breakage was funny...once.

Smigel's cartoon was okay.

The butchering of the national anthem was a low point.
