OK, maybe it's just because I was working on mediator stuff while I was kinda watching SNL tonight, but I don't think so.

THIS WAS THE WORST SNL THAT I HAVE EVER SEEN!

I really liked Avril Lavigne, but that was it! The rest of it really sucked!!! I guess if I had to pick, the Charlie Rose skit was the best, but still, it was really, really bad!

I have a theory. I think Jon Stewart's The Daily Show has gotten all of the good writers from SNL. It's consistently great!

Or maybe they just haven't found anyone to pick up the slack for Will Ferrell. I mean, he's no Phil Hartman, and Phil Hartman's no John Belushi, but still...

Where are the Not Ready for Primetime Players when you need them?

Sure, Jimmy Fallon is as cute as a bug and Darrell Hammond does some really great impressions (but they seem to be not writing stuff for him lately...it was Horatio Sands night last night) and the women are OK, but I miss Cheri Oteri and Jan Hooks (and why does anyone think a routine featuring an impersonation of Diana Ross is a topical one for the year 2003?)...come on!

This show has so jumped the shark on steroids!
