'Night Live'
still thriving
after 12 years
From Associated Pro reports
There are scandals in the
government, and celebrities are
being indiscreet. What a time to
launch an upstart, late-night show
and a group of unknown but
talented performers and writers.
The show isn new. It's 12 years
old. But the flow of the universe
being what it is, "Saturday Night
Live" is taking off again, with its
original producer, Lome
Michaels, back home and happy
at the helm.
Michaels, a former comedy
writer, launched the show in 1975,
and with it, the careers of Chevy
Chase, Dan Aykroyd, Jane Cur
tin, Bill Murray, Larraine New
man and the late John Belushi.
Michaels came back to the show
in 1985 after a 5-year absence with
an all-new cast. The critics hated
it. "Saturday Night Dead," they
said.
"We had to sort of scramble to
put that season together, and we
survived it, and we came out with,
I think, the nucleus of a new group
both in writers and in cast,"
Michaels said in a recent interview
in his office at NBC. "This year
the additions have added both a
stability and a certain kind of
brilliance."
Jon Lovitz, Nora Dunn and
Dennis Miller remained from last
year. This year, Michaels added
Dana Carvey, Jan Hooks, Victo
ria Jackson, Phil Hartman, A.
Whitney Brown and Devin Nea
lon. And this year, Michaels has
"Iran-gate," Gary Hart and Jim
Bakker, to name a few targets of
the show's satire.
Carvey has been the standout
newcomer in the public's mind,
with his popular "Church Chat."
After five years, when the
original cast's contracts were up,
Michaels left to pursue other
projects, including the underrated
and short-lived "The New Show,"
a prime-time satirical review that
featured many of the "SCTV"
players.
Except for the year before
Michaels returned, when Dick
Ebersole put together the cast that
included Billy Crystal, Martin
Short and Christopher Guest.
"Saturday Night Live" was spir
itless. And the Ebersole season,
despite some innovative sketch
humor, didn't have the same
dangerous, on-edge quality of the
old show.
Michaels has brought back a
"full-swing-at-the-ball" feeling,
thanks to an enthusiastic cast that
rivals the original for sheer talent.
NBC has renewed the show for
another year. The cast will remain
intact.
