    CAN SNL!! It is the Lowest of Raunchiness! Yes, it takes TALENT to write “Comedy” without relying on Tacky, Crude, humor!If you Love Betty White, Carol Burnette, and all those Great Comedians, then Watch them on OTHER shows! It was a Huge disservice to bring B.W. on and give her such a Foul-mouthed script! I’m disappointed that she would accept such a demeaning gig.

    Actually Facebook already have a page just like Betty’s to get people to sign up who want to see Carol Burnett host SNL. She is the next promotion evidently.

    Snl is almost over this season :( . Alec Bladwin next week!! :) ! I thought Betty White was great… she is 88 holy crap!! that’s amazing that she nailed everything and made everyone laugh. She was one of the best hosts this season and made the show live up to the expections they for it this week.. jay-z -not a fan.. he wasn’t very entertaining for my taste but neither was MGMT. They need to get some better artists.

      Get “better” artists? Uh, better is totally subjective. And I’m no fan of rap/hip hop, but Jay Z is among the all-time most popular and successful people in that genre. He has millions of fans.

    With so many people suggesting “old timers” to host, one of the networks should just start another SNL type show where all the weekly hosts would be very popular old timers. ABC or CBS should do it and put it head-to-head against SNL. Watch who wins the ratings.
