SNL is incredible...and not just because they got Sarah Palin to stand there and say nothing

my love for Saturday Night Live's entire ensemble knows no bounds and has for as long as i can remember. but this season has been pretty pitch perfect and not only because of the lovely and amazing Tina Fey's insanely dead on portrayal of Sarah Palin, but each cast member has really stepped up their game and is just fantastic. i think one of the major reasons behind this is thanks to the genius of head writer Seth Meyers, not to mention the all around confidence and talent level of the ensemble.



sadly Amy Poehler will be leaving SNL once she gives birth, but before that sad day comes, let's spotlight her ability to go all out, all the time in the ridiculously brillant performance she gives since Palin wouldn't step up to the plate.

and here's an article Alec Baldwin wrote about Sarah Palin's appearance on SNL. and here's an interview with Chevy Chase about how much he thought she sucked on the show. and here's another about whether Palin can win the election by just showing up.
