HL on SNL (& let's pray for RSL)

[bironic]

Hugh Laurie to host Saturday Night Live on October 28.

Chances RSL will show up for an impromptu sketch?

Okay, slim to none, but I bet they'll do a House parody in which one of the SNL cast plays Wilson and maybe there will be, as TWOPpers would say, HoYay. Lots and lots of HoYay.

Regardless, it's sure to be a fun episode.

I'm really worried about this. Hugh Laurie is so very funny and SNL is not. Hasn't been in years. Maybe this will help. Maybe Hugh can show them a thing or two about improvisation and spontenaity.

And maybe I'll finish NaNoWriMo this year... sigh.

For a change. SNL used to rock so hard. But now? :( I hope Hugh shows 'em a thing or two.

I didn't see any indications in the article that RSL is going to show up for a cameo? I don't see why he would-- he hides from media attention and I can only imagine what he thinks of SNL. XD If he *does* show up, well-- well!

SNL isn't the least bit funny, but it's good press to show up on it. For whatever reason, if you're on it, it's still an indication of fame/popularity/importance.

And since HL isn't new to the comedic sketch business, perhaps the ideas he brings to the table will push the quality up.
