Thomas SenaGUEST
I think a really good actor who's willing to not take themselves too seriously makes a good SNL host.
Thomas SenaGUEST
And apparently the host right after Bill Murray the following week was going to be Robert Guillaume.
Thomas SenaGUEST
who who uh by at that point in 1981 was known for soap and he would go on to yeah Benson at that time spin-off Benson yeah um so I think Robert Guillaume really great actor stage actor like Tony award-winning actor but also likes to work in comedy obviously with soap and all that So I think they would have had a pretty good host to maybe try to do some stuff and play around with.
Thomas SenaGUEST
So I think maybe we could have seen that momentum continue with like a game host and, you know, them hopefully taking the right lessons from the previous few episodes.
Thomas SenaGUEST
You're not gonna have Bill Murray in the house all the time, but there's still lessons to be learned from something like that.
