In addition to being all right for fighting, Saturday's ok for a Mile-a-Minute Comment:
Might still be too much credit, but at least SNL was hit and miss, as opposed to miss and really, really miss. For every extended fart joke there was a decent sketch about the Queen’s hotel room demands that require … ah… discretion. The host had some real involvement with the show, too – Hugh Laurie’s protest song was a highlight.

I was half asleep when Borat came on. I wasn't really paying attention, but then realized he was saying some rather racy, offensive things. An hour later I rewound the TiVo to see it again, thinking he couldn't have said the thing I thought he said. He did. I was pleasantly amused. I watched again the next day and couldn't believe he said those things on television. Perhaps I'm getting old.
His safe-for-TV stuff is getting a little canned (he's made the sell the child to Madonna joke a lot, and prolly will when he makes the talk show circuit), but yeah, Borat's crazy funny.
The fact that his stuff's a bit out of bounds was refreshing for SNL. Show used to be controversal, now it's pointing out that George Bush is an idiot.
Not that he's not, mind you.
