Set the TiVo!

Tonight, NBC is running a fourth season episode of Saturday Night Live from 10/14/1978. Why this one? Because it was hosted by Fred Willard, which is a fine reason.

I'm not sure I've seen this episode since 10/14/1978 and the only thing I recall from it is that Fred did a bit as an Elvis impersonator in the monologue and later, there was a very nice, well-executed sketch about a one-night-stand with him opposite Laraine Newman. I hope it makes the cut because this episode is being hacked down from its original ninety minutes to fit into an hour slot tonight.

BTW: The lovely Ms. Newman will be on our third online Cartoon Voices Panel a week from today. She will be joined by four other voice performers also of extraordinary talent.
