Palin Explodes SNL Ratings. You Betcha!
The most telling thing about Gov. Sarah Palin’s brief stint on ‘Saturday Night Live’ was that Tina Fey was smart enough NOT to stand next to the hottie politician who is way prettier than Tina – a fact duly noted by Alec Baldwin.
SNL, which has been a craptastic mess for years, has seen strong ratings the past few weeks with Tina-as-Sarah skits, but it’s ratings were the highest they’ve been in 15 years when they got the real thing to come on the show. Palin’s brief, hardly there visit drew in a late night audience of more than 17 million views, the biggest night the show has had since March, 1994.
