Zac Efron on SNL Outscores ALL OF SATURDAY NIGHT PRIMETIME

OMG THIS IS SO FUCKING AWESOME:

Moses led ABC to victory Saturday night.

But Zac Efron -- as "Saturday Night Live" host -- outscored Moses and everything in prime time.



NBC's "Saturday Night Live" posted a 5.1 household rating in preliminary ratings. In the most amusing sketch, Efron played Troy Bolton in "High School Musical 4." Troy told graduating students at his alma mater how rough life would be for them, because people at college don't break into song. Walt Disney (Darrell Hammond) materialized -- he had thawed out -- and warned Troy, "Disney characters aren't supposed to grow up. Just ask Mickey Mouse and Lindsay Lohan."

In prime time, Charlton Heston and "The Ten Commandments" pulled ABC to victory by pulling in 6.8 million viewers. But Moses sprawled outside prime time -- he started at 7 and concluded after 11.

Here's how the other broadcast networks fared in prime time: CBS with 4.7 million, Fox with 4.6 million and NBC with 3.9 million.

ABC also won the 18-to-49 age group so dear to advertisers. Fox was a close second in that count.

p.s. his number was better than seth rogen's. so was his performance.
