Live from YouTube...It's Saturday Night! [Jack M.]
Remember when Saturday Night Live was...what's the word? Watchable?
Yeah, I barely remember those days myself. What I do remember, though, is one fact that is incontrovertable: Saturday Night Live introduced me to the funniest man who ever lived.
That's right: Norm McDonald. Even though he's a lousy Canadian, for my money he's still the best Weekend Update host ever. And that's real American money, not that monopoly-like Canadian stuff.
Anyway, here is a short clip of Mr. McDonald on a recent episode of the Daily Show that reminds me just how far SNL had fallen. In the clip, he reflects on the death of the Crocodile Hunter, as only he can.
