Hugh Laurie on SNL!
Oct. 4th, 2006 12:25 pmNBC has confirmed Hugh will be hosting Saturday Night Live on October 28, with Beck as musical guest.
"Finally, on October 28th, the doctor is in as "House" star Hugh Laurie toplines SNL. Hailed as one of the best actors on television, Laurie stars in the hit medical drama and has garnered critical accolades as well as a Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild award and an Emmy nomination. A veteran of groundbreaking British television comedy ("A Bit of Fry and Laurie," "Black Adder," "Saturday Live" and "Jeeves and Wooster"), Laurie has also appeared in films including "Flight of the Phoenix," "Sense and Sensibility," "Peter's Friends" as well as the family hits "101 Dalmatians" and the "Stuart Little" films. Educated at Eton and Cambridge University in the U.K., Laurie was elected president of the venerable Footlights Revue, where he worked with frequent castmates Stephen Fry and Emma Thompson."
I only hope someone will be putting this up online, b/c I must have it. I'm just so happy for him. And he'll be excellent on SNL - despite all his musings about being too old for sketch comedy, I'm sure he still has the knack.
This icon was never so appropriate.
