I bow to no one as a fan of the late, lamented Firefly, but this video made me laugh hard enough to wake the neighbors

Live From New York, It's The Ghost of a Once Funny Programme...

Tonight, I watched this weekend's episode of Saturday Night Live, because Hugh Laurie was hosting and I love Hugh Laurie. I genuinely believe he could make just about anything funny, so I figured, how bad can it be?

Turns out, it can be pretty bad. Laurie himself was good in several sketches, but....I'd known it had gone downhill, but I wasn't aware it had reached the bottom of the hill, careered off into a deep ravine, and was lying in a flaming wreck at the bottom of mineshaft.

In the immortal words of Opus the Penguin, it "brought the word 'BAD' to new levels of badness. Bad acting. Bad effects. Bad everything. [It] just oozed rottenness from every bad scene...Simply bad beyond all infinite dimensions of possible badness. Well, maybe not that bad. But Lord, it wasn't good."

I think I need to get me some *old* SNL on DVD. kitanzi says she's never really understood what the fuss was about, because she never has seen it when it was exceptionally good.
