Despite 'Buckwild's' Ignominious End, Reality Television May Not Be…
Fred Armisen, Darrell Hammond, Bill Hader and Jason Sudekis suited up as Larry King, Jay Leno, Conan O'Brien and David Letterman for the opening sketch of 'Saturday Night Live.'"Jay, about 5 years ago, NBC came to you and said 'Jay, you're doing great. Your show's number one. We love you, leave, because we want to replace you with Conan O'Brien,'" Armisen's King said. "So you moved to 10PM and that was a colossal failure, is that right?"
"And that's where Conan comes in. Conan, you were doing great at 12:30 ... You had loads of fans, great ratings, then they moved you to 11:30 and that was a colossal failure," Armisen continued.
"So now everything's a mess, you're all mad at each other all because of a bad decision made in 2003 ... it seems like there's a very obvious solution here. Time machine," the fake-King said.

Even though I don't watch late night TV much, that cold opener segment was hilarious. Too bad NBC is in huge trouble.

This segment was hilarious?
Moving the tonight show to 12:05 in the morning? Who came up with that idea? probably the same people that put Saturday night live on thursday. Where Conan goes, I go. RIP NBC.

Agree. Too bad NBC is in big do do installing Leno BACK right where he does not belong. Talk about moving BACKWARDS. And every reason WHY NBC is in the trouble it is. Not one creative bone in its idiotic spine. How nice to see Sigourney Weaver chastising (nicely), onair, NBC, for everything her father wouldn't have put up with. SNL is about the only thing left for NBC to hang its hat on these days. Would hate to see it too- left to flounder.....to oblivion. NBC execs would be wise to own up to their failures- ASAP. Dunderheads.

the solution for haiti is to relocate everyone and sell the 1/2 island to condo developers or Disney and give the money to the hatians. We have been trying to fix haiti since the 1800's. would you think that if you could not fix something in 100 years it might not be fixable.

Yeah Michael, it was funny. Watch it on youtube. What's not funny is Jay Leno.

that wasn't funny at all. It sounded like a bunch of 5th graders put that skit together. What happened to the old writers of SNL??
or does America today appreciate un-funny humor?

not only was the opening cold, it was really stupid. the actors not only dressed poorly the imitations of the late night hosts was annoying. i used to watch snl faithfully at one time now i watch the opening skit and then change channels

SNL is like 60 Minutes. In the old days it was the program NOT to be missed. Now?

I think Leno should replace that ditzy blonde on the Regis show, and since they don't like each other, they could sit and glower until one of them says something vicious.

Jay Leno: not funny; Conan O'Brien: not funny; Saturday Night Live: not funny............

It was all "funny" and a big joke when they were parodying President Bush but it just showed there wasn't any imagination left. Just capping on people. And it's continued. No imagination, just abunch of NeoProgressive druggies without consciences. More people making huge amounts of money for bs work. Out here in the real world in a real factory with real workers you SNL are disgusting parasites on the rest of us.

Honestly, and I was surprised by this, to me Jimmy is better in Conan's old time slot than Conan was in Jay's old time slot.
All of this has helped me discover what a talent Craig Ferguson is!
