Remember that time when someone who wasn't Zach Galifianakis hosted SNL? What a mistake that was. This week's SNL did not disappoint. Not only did he ruin a bunch of NBC shows and make out with everyone, but he did this awesome monologue!

I don't know... Hard to top Anne Hathaway hosting. Best episode in the last ten years.

He reminds me of the comedic brilliance of John Belushi. I know. I know. Who? Never mind.

This episode was so awesome because SNL actually had a COMEDIAN hosting. Not a sports star, or a pop singer, or a country singer, or a teenage heart-throb. SNL needs to remember something when booking guests: COMEDIANS ARE FUNNY. Can't wait for Tina Fey to host. I love Lemon!!!!!

Amen!!! The best shows were hosted by comedians! Richard Pryor, Lilly Tomlin, George Carlin...to name a few. Why hasn't SNL learned that we don't want to see dim-witted starletts, sports heros, flavors-of-the-month? They're just not funny!!! I'm tired of un-funny people who can't improvise or act in sketches without looking at the tele-prompter...SNL needs more comedians who can act.

I love Zach's sense of humor. I love his talk show he calls between two ferns. If you like him search youtube to watch.

His monologue and the pageant talk skit at the end were hilarious. I feel like every generation says this, but SNL is absolutely not funny anymore.

Reading these comments and the whole Leno vs. Conan debacle, I'm convinced HuffPo readers have the absolute worst taste in comedy ever. I really don't get it.

Conan and Zach are comedic geniuses -- keep your King Of Queens and Leno.

The GOTP makes a mockery of the word freedom.

It's a big problem, this comedic illiteracy. It will doom us all, eventually.

Conan and Zach are comedic geniuses, so is Craig Ferguson.

Fanned!

I almost died when he said, here comes the choo choo. This was the best SNL opening in a long time and the ending was almost as great. Middle wasn't that good but no fault of Zach's.
