I bet they ruin the laser rocket arm commercial in the first 10 minutes.

Please tell me the musical guest is Lil Ronnie.

no, HELL NO, and no

The 17% of SNL that's actually good is funnier than the 100% of Two and a Half Men that sucks.

Charlie Sheen, go fuck yourself.

"Im gonnaaaaaaa
Find me a shotgun and kill every whitey I SEE.."

i actually think he will be funny on the show. his commercials are funny. as long as they don't have doing interviews with him, it will probably be funny. they should have him dress in drag like they did Jeter.

I'm still not going to watch it...sorry Peyton Chesney...

The 17% of SNL that's actually good

17% is pretty generous. That show has been about as funny as a rectal exam this year.

Who's Funnier Than Peyton Manning?

good thing Nibbles is capable of handling 1000+ comments,

DOG SHOW!

Athletes are rarely funny on that show. Though I did enjoy the time Sir Charles played Barney one on one.

as long as there's a good digital short i'll be happy.

@Kathleen Turner Overdrive: The vanity card that Chuck Lorre puts after each show is hilarious. If you ever have a ton of time to waste, go to his site and read all the ones he has done on all of his other shows, like Dharma & Greg, Sybil, etc. I forget what season it is, but somewhere in there he actually has a breakdown and you can see it in his vanity cards.

I hope John "Cougar" Mellencamp is the muscial guest, and I pray he turns back into Ed Grimley.

Peyton is praying they bring in Alec Baldwin and do a Canteen Boy remake.

@TheStarterWife: One man is responsible for Two and a Half Men, Dharma & Greg, and Cybill? Chuck Lorre just made the top of my enemies list.

There's no way he can be any worse than Nancy Kerrigan.

The unfunnier Manning is, the more he'll fit in.

@TheStarterWife: Actually, this is something I did not know and I apprecriate this fountain of knowledge.

I always love watching someone else go through a breakdown.

Ironically, Eli will be hosting drunken karaoke and feebly hitting on girls at some bar down the street.

As long as he keeps his pants on, the viewers should escape without serious emotional trauma.

I just hope Peyton allows Rediculous into the after-after-after-after-after party.

M-S-H: Damn it, I had been able to block her "performance" on SNL from my memory.

Peyton will prepare by watching hundreds of hours of tape, but will then attempt an ill-fated ad-lib on live television with unprepared supporting members, and be crushed to death by Kenan Thompson.

He's already funnier than Jimmy Fallon.

White pants, Peyton? Um, OK.

I liked Michael Jordan's skit where he was endorsing porn movies. Tom Brady's sexual harassment skit was funny too (and actually pretty true).

Manning in a box?

AJ's Oddsmaker should be on the type of skit Peyton does:

1-1: Skit containing word "laser rocket arm"

3-1: Peyton in drag

10-1: Peyton imitating Tom Brady

1,000-1:Peyton ad-libbing something funny

He is so not grizzled.

Someone please tell micke that there is a clip on the internets somewhere with that SuperJoe sketch.

@Kathleen Turner Overdrive: Check his wiki page: is a producer who has worked on many American sitcoms, including Roseanne, Cybill, Grace Under Fire, Dharma & Greg and Two and a Half Men.

Manning is no Andy Samberg. And by that I mean Manning is talented and is not a Fallon-lite.

White pants, Peyton? Um, OK.

Nah, I'll bet those are white jorts.

50-1:Peyton stars in a live action Ambigously Gay Duo

They're not saying "Boooo," they're saying "your commercials are still funny, but SNL just sucks."

@twoeightnine: One out of five ain't bad.

whatever the funny parts of Peyton Manning are.

Ladies...

75-1: Stars in skit involving a DUI and urinating.

Dominic Rhodes peed him pants laughing at Peyton.

@Kathleen Turner Overdrive: He also did "Grace Under Fire".

If you go to the Flash part of www.chucklorre.com., you can see the blood dripping from the shelves of "Grace" and "Cybil". He notoriously did not get along with Cybil Shepard, but I don't know what the story on Grace is... my friend that wrote on that show said it was a pretty ok writers room.

(Although I have another friend who worked on another one of his shows and has NOTHING good to say about Lorre.)

Me, I just like his vanity cards.

@Clare: Those are his "fun jeans".

The only thing funny about Peyton Manning is his face. Too harsh?

@Kathleen Turner Overdrive: Zero out of five ain't bad.

Fixed.

@HeavyPettingZoo:

Excuse me, did someone mention Sexual Harassment and You?!

Be handsome.
Be attractive.
Don't be unattractive.

I actually live not too far from Knoxville and, let me tell you, that man is a god around here. Literally thousands of people who've never watched an episode of SNL will tune in that night, be very entertained, and come away saying that Peyton is the funniest person in the universe. I only wish I was kidding.

Peyton will do little more than hand off the funny to others, yet still be universally praised for a fantastic performance.

"Ladies and Gentlemen..tonight's musical guest, The Dixie Chicks...[applause] CHECK THAT...check check...tonight's musical guest, Radiohead [applause} CHECK THAT...check check...blue 32...tonight's musical guest, Red Hot Chili Peppers...BLUE 17! BLUE 17..."

...and so on, etc.

I remember when Gretzky hosted SNL, and well, he's as accomplished of a thespian as his wife...

...I didn't stutter...

So when is Archie gonna force MadTV to have Eli on?

@SagerBombs: Yes, Peyton Manning is a bad QB whose talent does everything for him. Bingo. No talent in Manning.

@Christ Sabo: Oh Jesus, not a Peyton Manning defender...I believe sager was referring to the Super Bowl, when they won the game with the run and he won the MVP. He's very talented, but he's also very gay. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

This was the number one reason I rooted against the Colts in the Super Bowl. And I am not kidding.

How has no one made note of Fred Smoot's release from the Vikings? Who'll be the social director there in Minnesota now?

I hope John "Cougar" Mellencamp is the muscial guest, and I pray he turns back into Ed Grimley.

Oh, man, I totally remember that...

"There is a Cougar in the parking lot with its lights on..."
