I also didn't understand the big tribute to Eddie Murphy who then made an appearance but didn't do any comedy bits….
Yeah, Eddie's intro by Chris Rock was much longer than Eddie's short speech. I got the feeling that Eddie was now a BIG STAR and was way too cool now to go backwards into his comedy roots, but would acquiesce by accepting everyone's adoration. Bow before the king.

I was disappointed too....a few high points for me...
Bill Murray singing the Theme from Jaws...I loved when he did the lounge singer skits....
Melissa McCarthy doing Matt Foley, motivational speaker
Darrell Hammond and Jeopardy....
The sports montage of skits
Jack Handey comment
Dana Carvey as George Bush and Ross Perot
The breaking up shorts where they couldn't keep a straight face
Shatner telling his convention fans to get a life.....only showed like 4 seconds of that....
Jon Lovitz as Dukakis.....
Candace Bergen looked great..
It seemed like when they're did show the old time stuff..this music played over it and you couldn't hear what they were saying...the snippets were too short but I guess after 40 years they can't show everything....Did not like that Californians mess... and not to be mean but does Kanye EVER STAY HOME?
Having Miley there was horrible. How'd her agent book her that gig? I can't imagine her or Taylor Swift really fitting in with the likes of Steve Martin, Bill Murray, Jane Curtain, Chevy Chase, Dan Akroyd, etc.
Agreed! At this point I went to bed. I loved seeing some of the old skits and old starts but I thought a lot of the live stuff was really off/weird/bad choices.
I'm watching. It's amazing but it is also making me feel old. What the hell is wrong with Chevy Chase? Broke my heart to see him like that. Go Peyton!!!
You and me both! Having been around when it first came on.....and they are telling me it was 40 years ago?
So why are they letting Miley, who probably doesn't really keep up with SNL, sing a Paul Simon song when Paul is there??? I can't stand her.
Her and Kanye dragged it down, and personally shouldn't have been there but I'm sure there are many that love that they were.
