AND WHAT DID YOU LIKE BEST ABOUT THE MOVIE? THE DEAD WIFE: If last night's closing credits were any indication (plus the extent to which he was featured on the show, esp. in comparison to recent weeks), the record-setting tenure of Darrell Hammond on Saturday Night Live has come to an end. Hammond started in 1995, and by the 2004-05 season broke the record for longest time on the show -- and now has 105 impressions to his credit during his run. No one has gotten to shout LFNY,ISN! more often, and if this is the end, no matter how many times we've said "it's time for him to go," he will be missed.
As for the show itself, I've got no quarrel with a Will Ferrell's Greatest Hits show, esp. given the quality of the Celebrity Jeopardy! surprise guest. It was a slight, but amusing show at the end of one of the show's more influential seasons. We'll get to our own overall recap and the should go/should stay recommendations in due course.
P.S. Loved the final sketch. That said, if you can't identify Billy Joel's "Goodnight Saigon" more specifically than "a crazy nonsense song about being in Vietman [sic]", you shouldn't be writing about pop culture.
