Plus, I would think Fey has too many other real projects (and common sense) to want to take that nightmare on.

Meanwhile, Lorne mentioned in interviews during his CA Emmys trip that he is planning on staying with the show through the 50th anniversary special in January of 2025, but hinted he would retire soon after. He agreed to a suggestion that Tina Fey is one of several who has what it takes to replace him.

Fey does make sense in many ways, except…she old. Michaels was around 30 when he started SNL, and was in touch personally or culturally with much of the cutting edge in comedy and music. Fey is 53. Of course Lorne wants someone who will tend the flame and not reinvent the show. Still, I might be looking for someone like some Writer/Producer who worked with like Conan or TDS and is in their 30s.

Written and directed by Jason Reitman for Sony, "SNL 1975" tells the story behind-the-scenes of the weeks before the NBC late-night institution began its run--Gabriel LaBelle, who played the Spielberg stand-in in "The Fabelmans," is playing Lorne, with Cooper Hoffman ("Licorice Pizza") as Lorne's immediate NBC boss Dick Ebersol and Rachel Sennott ("The Idol," "Bottoms") as Rosie Schuster, Lorne's wife and a writer on the show--the question is, who's playing the Not Ready for Prime Time Players:


And of course Sikula and Marousek will hate it.
