• SNL turns 50 this year and Jean Smart is here to help kick off the golden anniversary!

• Despite the Hacks star's illustrious career, she has never hosted the show before (not even during the run of Designing Women! Crazy!). She will be the first reigning Best Actress in a Comedy winner to host the show

Ooh I love Jean Smart so I'll watch.

Hopefully we won't see the return of Baldwin Trump in Lorne's craven attempts at being relevant again this election.

Oh god, they better not go that way, especially when James Austin Johnson does a much better job anyway.

Gonna have to catch the rerun later because I'm going to see the movie! Hope both it and the episode are good. :)

bet you anything we'll get a "very demure" joke, since they are always weeks behind the humor.

Dismukes at the opening, love it!

love Maya to death but I’m really just. over old cast members coming back and doing these roles. the only time it was ever good was Tina Fey as Palin

They dare dishonor David Muir by getting his salt-and-pepper hair wrong

oh sorry, I didn't mean to reply but I'm also over the old cast members.
