Molly Shannon hosts SNL tomorrow

Saturday Night Live has been kind of boring lately (Scarlett Johansson notwithstanding), but it just might shine tomorrow night, when Molly Shannon returns to host.

On the recent NBC special Saturday Night Live in the '90s, one of the writers talked about Molly's method of creating characters. It seemed to be more of a process of discovering a gesture or a way of moving, and then building a persona around that — which, well, if the gesture was putting your fingers in your armpits and then sniffing them, was a smart way to go.
