Botulism aside, she looks great for 45.  I didn't mean for that to rhyme.

It may be just the nostalgia talking, but I've always liked this season of SNL.  I was 15 at the time, which probably has something to do with it.  I unabashedly like "You Can Pick Your Friends, You Can Pick Your Nose, But You Can’t Pick Your Friends’ Noses."  Great write-up, Rabin!

I know; that's the depressing thing—normally I don't care about the continuity.  I've been watching this show since 1982.  My fave Doctor is Toms Baker.  This is pretty much the first time I haven't been able to willingly suspend my disbelief.  I'm actually glad most people aren't having my reaction to the episode!

"His worst fear probably really is picking up a history book and finding out he's mentioned in it."

I had the same thought, that Maguire caused the abortionist visit.  I think in the first episode he lost his shit at Molly when she mentioned the wife in a less-than-positive light. Seems like there have been a couple hints in that direction.
