Laughtrack? You know the L in SNL stands for Live?
NBC will yank that video off of youtube asap.
Where was Darrell Hammond? Is he off the show? I think he normally did Wolf Blitzer.
Retired . . .

"Saturday Night Live" is making headlines for featuring a skit over the weekend, which parodied domestic violence.
On Saturday night's episode, the NBC sketch comedy show made light of Tiger Woods' scandalous week, satirizing reports - denied by the golfer - that his wife, Elin Nordegren, attacked him prior to his early-morning car accident on November 27 with a sketch featuring Keenan Thomson and host Blake Lively.
However, the show's musical guest was Rihanna - a victim of domestic violence earlier this year from then-boyfriend Chris Brown -- prompting concerns from several media outlets that the show's humor was insensitive from some corners.
"It was another sketch that gave us pause," noted PopEater in an article titled "'SNL' Lampoons Alleged Violence in Tiger Woods' Marriage," on Sunday. "We think, had the genders been reversed, 'SNL' wouldn't make light of the potentially violent situation."
