SNL: Returning non-favorites

Hoo boy, last night's "Saturday Night Live" was bad. I don't blame host Zac Efron, as he was front and center for the one funny sketch, the inevitable "High School Musical" parody. The rest, though, seemed like a contest to figure out which is the least funny current recurring character: Obama/Biden, Kathie Lee on "Today," Gilly, the celebrity blogger, etc. Painful. Just painful, and not worth spending any more time analyzing.

Ah, well. At least the season closes out with Justin Timberlake and Will Ferrell as hosts -- though, the way the season has gone (with Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin bombing, while newbies like Jon Hamm and Anne Hathaway fronted the better episodes), those two aren't guaranteed laugh riots.
