I'm surprised too. When Nicholas Cage hosted, he made a comment to Lorne during his neurotic monologue that Lorne must have thought Cage was the biggest jerk to ever host the show. Lorne said, "No, that would be Steven Seagal."

Straight from Lorne's own mouth, folks!

The other hosts wouldn't have worked as punchlines. If Lorne had said "Milton Berle" most of the audience would have thought the joke was that Berle ever actually hosted; if he had said "Louise Lasser" the joke would have been that Lasser was the name of a real person.

Chevy Chase might have worked but he is family. Paris Hilton probably hosted after the Cage monologue - she is the person I'm surprised wasn't on the list.

Re: Saturday Night Live

I'm planning on hitting up the standby line for most of the episodes this season (Cause I'm cool like that). So, if anyone want's to drop by and have all sorts of crazy fun while I'm confined to a 9 square foot living space for 15+ hours, feel free.

I'll most likely be bringing a video camera too...to capture all of my wacky line-sitting hijinks (and possibly some sketches improvised around the notion of the line). Seriously though, I'd love to have the chance to meet up with some fellow ASTers, and have them bring me food.

-Nick

PS: I love Spaceships, Toddlers, Model T Cars, and Jars of Beer. Does anyone know who wrote it?

NBC is not only planning four new primetime SNL specials launching in October (including a 90-minute affair airing Nov. 3), it’s scheduled the earliest season premiere in the show’s 33-year history and will mount four regular live shows four Saturdays in a row – a feat the franchise has attempted only twice before.SNL, which has long typically launched its season within a week of Oct. 1, debuts this year on Sept. 13.

The 34th season will be comprised of 22 episodes instead of the usual 20.
In all, NBC is planning to air 11 new SNL-branded dayparts in the 52 days spanning Sept. 13 and Nov. 3:

SATURDAY, SEPT. 13 – SEASON PREMIERE, 11:30 PM
SATURDAY, SEPT. 20 – LIVE
SATURDAY, SEPT. 27 – LIVE
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 4 – LIVE
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 9 – "SNL WEEKEND UPDATE THURSDAY" DEBUTS AT 9:30 PM
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 16 – "SNL WEEKEND UPDATE THURSDAY"
SATURDAY OCTOBER 18 – LIVE
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 23 – "SNL WEEKEND UPDATE THURSDAY"
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 25 – LIVE
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 1 – LIVE

Re: Saturday Night Live

This guy has apparently auditioned for SNL.

Some of his impressions are pretty good (Ian McKellen, Christopher Lee, Christopher Lloyd as Doc Brown from BTTF), some less so (his Christopher Walken is terrible). Check out his cartoon impressions too; he does Professor Farnsworth, Bender, and Kif relatively well.

I'm not sure they really need another impression guy, they've got Darrell and Bill Hader already. Although this guy does seem to be a better impressionist (in terms of accuracy) than either of them.
