When you put it that way Sea, pretty much everything we comment on is a sort of judgement or opinion so point taken.

Given the history of young stars running amok, it is only natural for people to wonder how Miley will do as an adult. I have seen her on Leno and I think she is quite mature (in a good way) for her age. And at the same time very much a kid.

The comparisons to Lady Gaga and Adam Lambert are probably flattering, but if Miley wants to maintain her level of stardom earned in her early teens, she will need a unique signature. A breakout movie role might do the trick.

I like the girl. She shows up on my radar often enough for me to be interested. And I want good things for her.

Well, I've judged her. I think she has been given an awful lot of freedom from a very young age. How that will play out for her, well, time will tell. I certainly don't wish her ill, but she has, in some instances struck me as bratty and entitled. Of course many teens have those attitudes and they grow out of it.

I don't blame her for wanting to break out of the Hannah Montana role. I loved the peacock costume.

I showed DD, age 8, the picture of the peacock costume and her face just lit up. She thought it was super cool.

Seriously, I would love to strut down a runway in that peacock costume. How fun would that be? I think every woman should get to strut down a runway in something crazy once in her life. I even thought I should open a bar called "Runway" with costumes for women to do just that! How fun would that be? But then I thought drunk women, high heels, platform ... maybe not a good mix.

I've been the one defending Miley when others didn't like her.
Now I didn't say anything about downfall. In fact, I mentioned that my daughter likes her music better. My comment was that the outfit was too grown up. I was offering an opinion of the photograph...sigh

I'm going to DVR the show. It will be the first time in my life that I have ever watched SNL.

Have my DVR set to record SNL in case I fall asleep. I love Betty White!!! I think it is fantastic that she is 88-years-old and still going strong.

OG, don't expect much from SNL. It's pretty hit and miss on the funny-ness. Mostly miss.

I'm going to watch this for Betty, but SNL doesn't have the writers to match her talent. Her spontaneous interviews make me laugh harder than anything I've seen on SNL since the early '80's.

I hope she does well. News reports say that she's really nervous.

Betty was in one or two series in the '50s that were my Mom's favorites. Wish Mom was (still) here now to see this.

She did better than good--she was great, God love her.

So cool when JayZ dedicated Forever Young to "the incredible Betty White."

Also, great that they brought in some of older female cast members, the ones that were really good like Maya, Tina, Amy, Anna and Molly to work with her in sketches. The sketch she did with Anna and Molly with the muffins was something else.

I just wish the network didn't assume everyone now has a wide screen HDTV at home. During the muffin bit, Betty's face was either only half on the screen or not on at all! So far the show is pretty funny, but it's such lowbrow humor, I'm sure the people who rarely watch the show will be surprised (or offended).

Surprised they have her in so many skits too! They are really making her work. She's doing a great job. Jay Z is singing his first song now and I'm recording the rest. Time for bed. :-)

One of the best SNLs in years. I'm sure Betty had an hand in the writing because they are rarely this funny. This has to be in the top 10 episodes of SNL.

Hermione - I just saw a bar called Beauty Bar. It's for women. The decor is vintage beauty salon. And the specialty is martinis and manicures.

Wow, I'm glad it was really good. I was worried about all the hype that it wouldn't be all that.

I'm glad I dvr'd it. I will watch it tomorrow.

Is there somewhere I can watch it online? I got to see the opening, the monologue, and the muffin sketch....then a friend called who had been trying to reach me all day, and I had to take the call, so missed the rest.

Oh, by the way, in the part I did see, I thought it so amusing that when they cut to commercial, it was still all Betty White--first in that football ad, and then in an ad for her new series!
