So, who watched...did anyone watch? When I heard Brian Williams was hosting Saturday Night Live, I had to watch. Brian Williams is still
my world news guy. I tune in every weeknight. Yes, I miss my Tom Brokaw, but Tom was gettin' old and it was time to go. I'm diggin' Brian, he's good. I was looking forward to seeing him step out of his anchorman box. Well, for me, it was just OK. He did a couple sketches trying to be
not Brian Williams, but he still just looks so starched and ironed.
I wanted to see him be silly.
I wanted to see him be a regular guy.
I would have settled for seeing them mess up his hair. I can't believe that SNL had the anchorman for NBC Nightly News, and they didn't use him for their news! What!?! It would have been worth it just to see Amy Poehler and Seth Meyer mess up his hair. Opportunity missed, I think so. Brian, (can I call you Brian?) don't be to hard on yourself. You did OK. It's not your fault that SNL is a mere shadow of it's former self. You are not a writer, you are a reader. I give you major props for steppin' out of the box. Kudos to you! Now, if you could just mess up your hair for me on Monday night, you will have won me over completely! Thanking you in advance...Nap Warden.
