THUS MARKING THE FIRST TIME THE SHOW HAS BEEN HOSTED BY A MANATEE: With the SNL season premiere only two weeks away, we have our first three host/musical guest combos.  Season premiere will feature Seth MacFarlane hosting and musical guest Frank Ocean (with a likely guest appearance by either or both of Kanye/Jay-Z, I expect).  Week two will be Joseph Gordon Levitt and Mumford & Sons, in an apparent effort to build back up hipster cred after MacFarlane, and week three will be Daniel Craig and Muse.  Others I expect to see on the list for the fall?  Taylor Swift as host and/or musical guest to sell her new album, Ben Affleck to sell Argo, and someone from Breaking Dawn (more likely Pattinson than Stewart, I'd guess).

    I'm not sure about hosting, but both Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin are guaranteed to appear this season.

    Over/under on Jon Hamm appearances? I'd put it at 4.

  3. Muse, eh? We're still trying to make them happen in North America?

    With Les Mis coming out, I'd like to see Hugh Jackman or Anne Hathaway host again.

  4. I'd almost stake money on Hathaway hosting the Christmas episode.

    Seth McFarlane...what?

    ON the other hand, I'm there like crazy for the return of JGL.

    There was something I was going to do before the end of August but I can't for the life of me remember what.
