  On Monday morning, in Homeroom, all anyone would talk about was, "Oh my God - did you see Saturday Night Live!?"

  I was in high school when SNL began. I used to occasionally drag my stereo turntable/8-track player into the TV room and record the show on 8-track tapes. EVERYONE watched the show back then. 😊 Thank you Al and Jim for great memories and stories💚 The laughs are very welcome, especially yours Al!

  Thanks Al for interviewing Jim.  I haven’t seen him in years.  One of the smartest guys I knew in grade school.

  Jim wrote so many great things over so many decades... lifetime Emmy?  Reunion show with all those comedians?  Mark Twain Prize?  Kennedy center honor?  Someone get on it.

  Hi Al,<br><br>I am a native Floridian. I agree with you wholeheartedly about the role that Florida played in the 2000 Presidential Election and the 5-4 decision in Bush v. Gore that enabled Bush to become the President. &quot;Officially&quot;, Bush won Florida by 537 votes. The world was profoundly changed and not for the better as a result of Bush v. Gore.

  snl began when I was in jr high. I quickly fell in love with the show. &nbsp;It was brilliant. &nbsp;I remember parties would stop when SNL came on.

  Thank you for a conversation filled with humor and NO TRUMP or politics. Such a joy. I&apos;m 70 and was a big fan of Saturday Night Live back in the day.

  “Invisible Pedestrian” it’s for my money, the single greatest gag in SNL history.
