In fact, Rocket was kicked off SNL just like Norm was. Though he was kicked for dropping an F bomb. I feel like there was an unbroken chain of great anchors all the way up until Jimmy Fallon. That's when the weekend update ended for me.

It’s just like in the Chippendale’s skit when he’s like, “I wish I could just flip a coin and be done with it, but we can’t…we’re Chippendales.” His sincerity makes it all the more ridiculous.
