Note to Christopher Hitchens, The Corsair's old mentor: women are funny. Ask Lorne Michaels. From Defamer:
"Though MADtv was canceled today, elder sketch comedy statesman Saturday Night Live is still flying high — so high, in fact, that they've finally gotten around to addressing that whole 'lack of women' thing! Season breakout Tina Fey wasn't actually a cast member this year (and won't be stopping by anymore), while utility player Amy Poehler is on Archibald-assisted leave, bound for Office-related parts unknown. So what two Los Angelenos has Lorne Michaels brought on to take some of the weight off Kristen Wiig and Casey Wilson?
First, we have 21-year-old Abby Elliott, daughter of Chris Elliott.
"... SNL's other addition is Michaela Watkins, a Groundlings main company player who can currently be seen as the Hamish Linklater-romancing Lucy on The New Adventures of Old Christine."
