40th anniversary show on tonight.

They had some great cast members, musical guests and sketches through the years.

My favourite cast member was Eddie Murphy.

You guys have any favourites?

I may have watched a whole episode back in the 70's but not one minute since.

I've watched every single episode over the past 40 years. SNL is one of my favorite TV shows, wouldn't miss it.

Take out football, I bet you watch more TV in one week than I do in 3 years.

Hey The Boys, I have a couple of questions if you cold help me out.

I'm taking a customer to The Palace next Tuesday for the Pistons game and was going to buy club seats of stub hub. My customer is a big guy and asked if I could get him a aisle seat. Have you sat in the club seats before and if so would he not be that cramped for space. Also can you recommend any bars and restraunts around that area.

Thanks

Tough question for me. I'm not a BB fan so I haven't been to the Palace in many years. And because it's kind of out in the boondocks I'm not sure of the restaurant/bar scene. If you get into Birmingham or Royal Oak I can help, sorry.

No worries, thanks for the response.

I also watched it in the seventies and not much since. Loved that Jeopardy sketch. I didn't realize Chevy Chase was only on for one year!

I watched it. Overall decent. Highlight was the Jeopardy sketch. My all time favorite. :0074

Jeopardy sketch was funny!

Grew up watching SNL. 40th brought back memories. Enjoyed it.
