One of the biggest laughs during SNL’s dress rehearsal this weekend never made it to air.

According to Bari Weiss at least, the story cannot be reported on then. Right?

What do they call that elevated bridge worked into the background of every youth stage production? A gangway?

SNL's Trump: "People are asking why we had to strike in the early hours of Saturday... One, it's after the stock market closes for the weekend. And two, it's to cause immeasurable fear, rage, and chaos in the SNL writers room.

Is 'Heated Rivalry' Star the Freshest Face to Ever Host SNL? With fewer than six hours of TV under his belt, is Connor Storrie the freshest face to ever host SNL? LateNighter takes a look at other contenders for that title.

As I noted here, TV-wise, the closest comp (and it isnt close) is perhaps Rege-Jean Page post-Bridgerton S1. (But all-time, it's 7YO Drew Barrymore.)

The truth is, if you go back and rewatch that two-hour pilot of Legends, I think you'll see that the seventies bar fight to “Love Will Keep Us Together” was a moment when you saw in the very first two hours, what the show would ultimately become. I think if we had a normal pause-and-reflect period between the pilot and the next episode, we would've said, “Oh, that's where the show lives! Let's tack towards that.” In fact, I do remember sitting in the editing room with Greg, watching the rough cut of the two-hour pilot, and afterwards I turned to him. I was like, “We've been talking about the show all wrong. We've been talking about this show as our version of The Avengers, but the truth is it's our version of Guardians of the Galaxy.” The problem is by that point, the ship had very much sailed. We were committed to a certain tone, and we were committed to a certain storyline, and we didn't have the time—or even the ability – to make a major course-correction until the end of the first season. But now, because Legends, had a second life on Netflix, people came to the show without any preconceived notions. That's why they are able to just enjoy season one, purely on its own merits. I don't think it's a bad season of television. I've been involved with bad seasons of television, and I don't think it's a bad season of television by any means. To me, it's just a show that didn't know what it wanted to be yet.

I love this quote from @marcguggenheim.bsky.social, explaining why there's so much more love for the first season of #LegendsOfTomorrow these days than there was during its run.

"The heavy bombing will continue uninterrupted throughout the week or, as long as necessary to achieve our objective of PEACE THROUGHOUT THE MIDDLE EAST."

Is something he actually typed and then hit send.

If a Les Moonves ever said at a TCA exec session, "I've been fully exonerated," there'd be a follow-up question -- I promise you.

My antimacassar arrived! 👏👏👏

WHCA, it goes a little something like this: "What do you mean by 'exonerated'? That's a pretty specific legal term."

Fonzie would like a word.

Anyone else catch the #MonarchLOM retcon...? At very end of S1 finale, they were being hustled inside the complex to safety. As S2 opens, tho, they're being rushed to helicopters.
