THREEPEAT: Spurred by this week's SNL hosted by ALOTT5MA fave Amy Adams and how much press SNL's "four straight new episodes!" plan got, I was wondering when the last time three women hosted the show in a row was, thinking it might be a record. It's not--three times before has there been a three-peat for the ladies:
  • April and May 1976--Raquel Welch, Madeline Kahn, and Dyan Cannon host in a row
  • February 1981--Sally Kellerman, Deborah Harry, and Charlene Tilton host in a row
  • February 2004--Megan Mullally, Drew Barrymore, and Christina Aguilera host in a row (preceded by a Nick Lachey/Jessica Simpson hosting duo).
Had there been a fourth in a row, it would be a record. Instead, next week, Jonah Hill hosts. Who'd you like to see host in the rest of the year? Justify your answers. (My thoughts--John Krasinski, with guest appearance by George Clooney, selling Leatherheads, Jason Segel and Kristen Bell selling Forgetting Sarah Marshall, and Robert Downey, Jr., selling Iron Man.)
