Ben Silverman Is Bringing 'Saturday Night Live' To Thursdays

@Omelas: And I say this as the rare 20-something who doesn't even hate SNL ... we're sitting here with a bottle of wine waiting for Christopher Walken right now. But I watch it for a good guest, or watch a particular sketch online that someone's recommended. Election coverage is not what makes SNL (dele:great) mildly entertaining.

@Sleepyhead: Jeez. Since when did SNL decide it was politically relevant? I love Tina Fey, but I don't think that one sketch about how "bitch is the new black" suddenly puts the show on par with something like "The Daily Show", which offers insight and challenging satire and seven-minute interviews with people who actually know their shit.

Sorry. A little Lorne Michaels hate coming out right there.

@OldTowneTavern: Oh, that reminds me of my favorite 80's sitcom about the typical African American family, THE COCKBSY SHOW.

@OldTowneTavern: Okay, so we now have TWO acceptable formats for the spin off. I dig it.

@Sweet Panda Love: In Canada, we have a show called "Keys to the VIP" where douches try to pick-up chicks on camera for the coveted key. I never watch it, but throw in some cock blockers and I think it could be comedy gold...

@Sweet Panda Love: Anyone old enough to remember if they jumped on COCK ROCK in the 80's?

@StaringatScreen: "Cock Blockers" sounds like a new reality show hitting NBC sometime in the 2010 season.

@RocketRockit: I'd like to see a half hour of Dwight moaning Jim's name... and perhaps rubbing his own nipples. That would be fun. I'm picturing it right now... and you know, it works.

I'm still stunned by the KNIGHT RIDER thing. Seriously Benjamin, did you forget about THE BIONIC WOMAN? Who expects this show to last past four episodes?

It's only 3 weeks of election coverage TNL. Just continue watching Jon Stewart instead.

I'm waiting for the Variety headline PEACOCK TOTALLY SUCKS COCK.

Okay, so what the f is the Office spin off? It's my favorite show and I can't think of ANY scenario that would make me want to watch it, unless it was half an hour of John Krasinski staring into the screen and moaning my name (which would probably be really uncomfortable for everyone else).

Thursday Night Live? An Office spinoff?

Is it still April Fool's Day?

Christ.

Commenters, do you think that if we all pitched in we could pay Alan Ball to whip up some new shit for HBO but quick so as not to have to watch the Not Ready for Prime Time Players take their boring Saturday Night (Live) routine to Thursdays?
