      Telah SNL started in 1975 and according the funny news date by Tina Fey and Amy Poehler with a very funny assist by Jane Curtain, that one of the original Producers showed up for the SNL reunion - Cocaine. I agree that the original SNL was always funny, but before SNL there was nothing like that on TV, and more interestingly the guys were always super high on there "producer" it is amazing that they always had funny ideas, because one would think that such a high chemical imbalance would make it harder to distinguish between funny and ho-hum. But maybe that is why Lorne over saw every aspect, and when he left for a short while everything went down hill, till his return, and ever then it was a bumpy ride to rejuvenate the show.
