        Miller was great, but MacDonald ALWAYS had me laughing, which I can't say about Miller.

          but definitely, Dennis Miller.
          I have to agree...

          Chevy Chase was brilliant in the role, but Dennis Miller looked like he was born to it. He was by far the best.
          All the hosts after that were just a shadow of the best.

                          I'd be angry at the youngins for thinking that MacDonald was the best, but they really don't know any better...

                            I was just thinking the same thing.

                            Not that Norm was bad. He was good.

                              I'm a really big fan of Norm McDonald, but he didn't do it for me on Weekend Update.

                              He wasn't smooth and he bombed a lot. Of course that's the writers as much as him.

                              ACK!

                                I liked his reactions though when the jokes bombed.
