    matthew morrison and oprah

    • Nathan

      Gene Simmons

  • TellyB

    Nathan Fillion is a nobody that even with a so-so show with decent ratings still hasn’t been able to generate any real buzz beyond his cult WhedonPsychos fandom…

    • Stacie

      Low-five TellyB.

  • mushu

    i’d like to see Rachael McAdams with Sherlock Holmes coming up…..btw, i totally thought that pic of Katy Segal was Jennifer Esposito before reading the article!

  • Amy

    Jane Lynch
    John Krasinski
    Jason Schwartzman
    Jason Segel
    Zach Galifianakis
    Kristen Bell

    • Mel

      Yes,yes,yes, to everyone on that list!

  • ggny

    Jane Lynch and Joel McHale are no brainers…But i want to see Ed O’Neil host with a apperance by Katy Sagel and Christina Applegate!

    • petek

      Yes, I agree wiht Ed o’ Neil.

  • Dennis

    Craig Ferguson – The Late Late Show
    Jim Parsons – The Big Bang Theory
    Zooey Deschanel – 500 Days of Summer
    Simon Baker – The Mentalist
    The guy who plays Wolowitz – Big Bang Theory
    Kenneth – 30 Rock
    Bryan Cranston – Breaking Bad/Malcom in the Middle
    David Duchovny – X-files/Californication
    Jeff Goldblum – L&O: CI

    • Charles

      Good list except for Simon Baker – not sure he would fit

    • Kane

      Nice list – Jim Parsons and Bryan Cranston would be my faves

  • ggny

    Also John Cho..With Flash Forward being a decent hit and his comedy backround from Harlod and Kumar i think he would be a amazing host

  • John

    I would really like to see Celine Dion host SNL once. This woman has an amazing sense of humor that most people don’t know about!! And of course, a great voice too.

  • Cathy

    Jeffrey Dean Morgan!!!

  • rey

    nbc needs as much promotion it can get. my list then:

    ed helms, amy poehler, tina fey, anthony anderson, sam waterson, chris meloni, mariska hargitay, and my personal favorite STEPHEN COLBERT!

    • shelsby

      Totally agree! And, Chris Meloni is very funny it would be great for him to show it off! My personal fav is also Colbert–would love to see him up there besides voicing half of “The Ambiguously Gay Duo!”

    • Luddite

      Yes to Chris Meloni. He is hilarious.

    • Buzz

      YES to mariska hargitay …but then again , maybe not

  • admiller@rogers.com

    Definitely agree with Jane Lynch, Ed Helms and Joel McHale

    In general, SNL needs to shake things up a bit like they used to. Don’t necessarily stick to the Under 35 crowd just because your cast is young.. some older folks like Larry David, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Paul Giamatti, etc would be fantastic.

    That goes for musical guests too…

    Also:

    John Krasinski
    Jenna Fischer
    Ed Helms
    Jason Schwartzman
    Michael C. Hall (Dexter)

    • Charles

      UGH, the Office, really? That show was never funny – we get it, they are socially awkward, look into the camera, and pause – they make Small Wonder look like Seinfeld

    • Juniper

      Yes to Larry David! Perfect.

  • petek

    Sam Worthington would be cool, because of Avatar and Clash of the Titans.

    • Stacie

      And the hotness. Purr kitty.

  • Josh Ortiz

    How about getting hosts from NBC Universal’s networks?

    James Roday
    Dule Hill (both from Psych),
    Jeffrey Donovan
    Bruce Campbell (both from Burn Notice),
    I highly agree on Mark Harmon (#1 show on TV)
    Katt Williams
    Bryan Cranston

  • petek

    And Larry David would be nice.

  • TheObserver

    Neil Patrick Harris. Or John Hamm…I think Mo’nique would be hilarious they should definietly get her on and the cast of Twilight could definitely be interesting, especially in terms of what they come up with. I think the problem with SNl is the writing and not the performers.
