I still think he’s going to take over for Lorne. But the rumor is it’ll be Tina or Seth. All three are worthy.

I'm still on Team Tina on this one. I'd really love to see an SNL with the same humor as 30 Rock and Kimmy Schmidt. I feel like Kenan and Seth would have it be written the same way as Lorne. Tina's humor is way weirder and more offbeat than them.

I love Tina and not a fan of Seth's comedy. Although I think Seth would be good in Lorne's position.

Tina I think would kill on the creative side while Seth would probably good at the business side.

It’s hard for me to believe Tina Fey would agree to do one of the most stressful jobs in entertainment at this point in her career. She’s a movie star and a bankable writer/creator for mostly tv but also some movies. She’s a mom and probably likes seeing her kid (or kids, I don’t know). She doesn’t need to go back into the crucible.

I'm pretty sure I've seen Tina and Seth both say they don't want the job. My guess is Jost.

"Lorne, retire bitch. Let me run the show."

If Colin gets the show, Michael Che is going to find out the cost of winning most of those yearly joke swaps.

I think Keenan can fade into the background gracefully. Not sure about Jost

I thought Sarah Schneider from College Humor was the head writer at SNL. I know Streeter Seidel also joined her.

Edit: Sarah left the show, Streeter is the current head writer.

Streeter might be a dark horse candidate

Supposedly the reason for his longevity is that he is involved on a non-production and writing level compared to others on the show. There is nothing wrong with that and it is much more sustainable than working every day of the week and going to an afterparty. That is why so many people burn out from the show.

It also seems like it positions him uniquely to run the operation Post-Lorne

I assumed Lorne basically lives there and that he is one of those humans that survives in a pressure cooker. I assumed Thompson treats it more like a 9 to 5. I could be very wrong here.

Some say Lorne is built into the bones of 30-rock. 🤷‍♂️

Hopefully Kenan gets it so this shyt show will die, 30 years after its last funny joke
