From an SNL point of view, this is a win though, when was the last time we discussed an episode of it this much on Monday? -- nm

That's true, even calling the episode a bust, I'll blame this one on Lohan and not the writing (though that wasn't great either) -- nm - Max Mar 5, 11:31
People (here and elsewhere) watched who otherwise wouldn't have because of the trainwreck potential. - TFox Mar 5, 11:29 9
- absolutely, but they don't care why the eyeballs were there, just that they were. -- nm - Andie Mar 5, 11:30 8
  - I disagree. To the extent people tuned in that usually don't to see LiLo and saw a crappy show, they won't tune in again. It was a chance to grab - pmb Mar 5, 11:47
  - Having not seen this SNL, I will add that her casting was a refreshing change from the usual celebrity shilling for their latest movie/show/album - con_carne Mar 5, 11:42
  - oh, for sure. they can't go back to that well too many times though; the cast would revolt. - TFox Mar 5, 11:31 5
    - I think they threw her a bone given she'd hosted in the past and did a good job. - Will Hunting Mar 5, 11:38 2
      - she totally admitted last weeked that she pretty much begged Lorne Michaels for the gig. -- nm - Andie Mar 5, 11:39 1
        
        Oof....you can't be begging and then be lame. - Will Hunting Mar 5, 11:40
    - Don't end up reenacting scenes from 'Platoon' with Charlie Sheen. -- nm - DirecTV Mar 5, 11:34
    - totally agree. -- nm - Andie Mar 5, 11:32
this is why I don't think her career is over, honestly. People are still interested in her. -- nm - loosilu Mar 5, 11:28 5
- but there aren't that many outlets for this sort of thing. in terms of "giving her a real part in a real movie", why would you? -- nm - Andie Mar 5, 11:30 4
  - does she need to have a career in movies? -- nm - loosilu Mar 5, 11:32 3
    - In theory, no. In reality...yes. In her mind. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 5, 11:37
    - she needs something that pays the bills. where she is now she is the perfect reality show star. but she won't go that way. - Andie Mar 5, 11:34 1
      - yeah, that's her fatal flaw. she wants everything high end and won't do the work. -- nm - loosilu Mar 5, 11:36
