Clearly there is plenty of room for reasonable disagreement on something like the funny-level of SNL. Aside from the Fey stuff I would not have put it in either the top of bottom 10 of the TV year. But not everything is subjective. Do you really want to endorse the statement that I think is at the root of this?: "the continued evolution of Kristen Wiig, whose zany characters rank with those of Gilda Radner and Lily Tomlin." Yikes! I am not as reflexive a Wiig hater as some on this list, but I do know that there may not be 5 more easily falsifiable claims in all of entertainment than that Kristen Wiig is as funny as Gilda Radner and Lily Tomlin. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Like TV only smarter.
