It is so wild to me that someone in the comedy business didn't have weird al in s-tier celebs. When it is considered an honor to have someone "make fun" of you, that's a good guest star!

And he is just awesome all around, always respectful. Long live Weird Al! 🤘

Lorne is a dick, and Al is too smart for him. Playing by SNL's rules and dealing with their own writers would not end well.
