It was a matter of time before he hosted... and I cannot wait! Tonight's gonna be good (minus the musical guest).

Some good parts, but it mostly sucked.

Go away Cubs, go away!

Election Special on Monday night.

Probably the first totally dismissible episode this season. Not a good skit in the bunch.

It's sad to think that Dana Carvey is now about the right age for the church lady.

In my opinion, it wasn't the best episode ever, but hardly the worst.

There were a couple decent (but not great) sketches in there - the cold opening, the gay professor digital short, and Beck Bennett's game show.

Thinking about that is making me wonder what Wayne and Garth are up to in their old age.

Have you seen that picture of Mike Myers with white hair at a Leafs game in Long Island? I didn't recognize him until somebody mentioned that he was wearing a Molson hat.

That was not the best Church Lady bit.

I always thought Myers wore a wig.
