Was disappointed that no clip of the Stones performance appeared. If they can show Betty White making out, they can show Mick licking Ron s face!

You know this "classic Gilda" is a big joke on Patti Smith, right?
Patti has revived her carrer and become an official 1970s cool person from New York. But she was a big joke when "Candy Slice Gilda" came out in 1979.

This show would've been far better if they had edited it and put out a version that removed all the deadwood

really?...as a NY'er I don't think Patti Smith was ever uncool. Only people that lived above 23rd street got that tag.

You got that right, Rip This -- Pietro knows not of what he speaks.

Gilda is definitely alluding to Patti Smith in that character but it isn't a rip.

In 1978, I'm not so sure it was a face lick

It was a face lick. Ronnie made sure to keep his mouth safely tucked in.
Keith looks wonderful and he delivered the joke they gave him very nicely.

Thought Keith's bit was humorous.

All in all a good show with typical SNL skits. How come the Coneheads didn't appear in the Jeapardy sketch??
How close are we to Keith being host? Maybe this Fall coinciding with his solo album!

Thought Keith's bit was humorous. Paul's voice was weak at the beginning but got better as the song went along. A better song choice would have helped - can any of y'all sing "Maybe I'm Amazed" better? I can't!
Thought the show had some funny moments but was kinda dull for the most part. A little too much self-congratulating and inside jokes - do you really know the behind the scenes people (excepting Lorne, of course)? Chevy, Murray, and Murphy weren't funny at all.
WTF Miley singing "50 Ways" while Simon was there?

Paul McCartney AND Paul Simon both had a little trouble. Their duet was fine, but I thought Simon's show closing 'Still Crazy After All These Years' was a little weak. Both were probably not in the best of circumstances, with McCartney performing a complete concert the night before, and as mentioned in the pre-show, Paul Simon had flown 19 hours to get there in time for the broadcast.
Oh well, the entire show was a shambles. It looked good on paper. But Chevy Chase looked and acted truly disturbing. They could have rounded up Chase, Dan Ackroyd, Bill Murray, Laraine Newman, Jane Curtain and Garret Morris for a skit with the remaining original cast, but that opportunity is now lost forever. And why did Eddie Murphy even bother to show up? Just to soak up some applause and basically make peace with SNL?
I did keep thinking Mick would make a surprise appearance. Keith's bit was cool, succinct and on with the show. And I will laugh in the face of anyone who describes Kanye West as a genius. His best song's highlight was Jamie Foxx imitating Ray Charles.

It could have been Keith's joke, fits his humor and style, and being an introduction they probably gave him the latitude to say whatever he wanted. peace
