Monday Morning Video Laugh - May 10, 2010

Surprise! Saturday Night Live was watchable last week for the first time in 20 years. And all it took was giving over the hosting chores to 88-year-old veteran Betty White. Her stint was prompted by some stupid Facebook campaign, but so what. She was terrific.

Originally, they said that, in deference to her age, they would use her sparingly on the show. But she wound up in so many sketches that I'm convinced Lorne Michaels thought he was mentioned in Betty's will.

Here's her monologue. Bravo, Betty!

Dinner last night: Italian hero with cappacolla, salami, and roasted red peppers.

I saw the muffin sketch. Hope the rest of her sketches were better. This was a retread of Alec Baldwin's "sweaty balls" sketch years ago. Funny then.
