Anyone else think the airing of a Norm OJ joke was Lorne atoning for his sins?
I'll be 84, going on 85.
The show started with an awesome first sketch and then immediately stumbled with that awful Californians sketch. After that it was a mixed bag and half of the show was lukewarm. They had all that talent there and so many of them just gave a boring speech or weren't used at all. I would have liked to seen more sketches as a lot of stuff felt like filler. It was overall a decent show and it was great seeing so many great talents get together for something like this.
Maybe some of us will be alive for the 100th.

Yeah whoever said this was like a high school reunion was right.
I thought it was a pretty good show, excuses for meeting up aside.
Celebrity Jeopardy and the digital short were the highlights for me.
I enjoyed it. The montage segments got a bit over the top, but it had such a genuine air of fun & positivity - it's great. But if you really wanted to just get to the good shit - I'd say watch Jeopardy, the Auditions, Update, Chris Rock's introduction for Eddie Murphy, the Questions from the Audience bit, and the Breaks Digital Short.
you guys think they'll be a 50th anniversary?
I enjoyed it for what it was. If you saw the 25th Anniversary special you knew what to expect. (As far as musical guests for a special go, they'll never top Elvis Costello/Beastie Boys.)
Having Bill Murray reprise Nick Winters was a treat.

There weren't any skits at all for the 25th if I remember correctly, where there? And musical characters don't count
Where is Victoria Jackson?!
Lets all take a minute to appreciate that she wasn't on the show.Where is Victoria Jackson?!
Norm Macdonald at the Bob Saget Roast is the funniest thing I've ever seen.
I wonder if there will be a SNL 50th. The cast right now is terrible and it has some of the worst writing in my recent memory. The skits aren't just not funny - they're straight up bad.

Nah, more likely he didn't want to do one.Poor Eddie Murphy. Looks like they may have had a skit planned but something went wrong?
Unsure if you have seen it, but Rolling Stone did a top 141 list of all the cast members:

Great read.
