I think the only TV I have watched in the last six months is season 3 episode 1 of Saturday Night Live, which I looked up because I wanted an example of Dan Aykroyd playing Jimmy Carter. I was successful. Jackson Browne was the musical guest that night; Steve Martin hosted (poorly).
I had forgotten that Aykroyd played Carter. Weird. Those older episodes are really great because you can see what things they were trying out. The people from Second City and the Groundlings trying to make stuff fun to watch every week. I'm amazed it lasted as long as it has. Lorne Michaels has sold his soul to someone. There is a (VERY WEIRD) sketch somewhere of Al Franken playing Lyndon Larouche in one of those after midnight sketches that regular audiences would never want to see, its stuff like that the outskirts, that make SNL fun in my opinion.
