"I see it really as what it's intended to be, an apprenticeship," Pinkett said in an interview before the last show aired.
The win nets Pinkett a six-figure job with "The Donald" overseeing the renovation and expansion of Trump's three hotels in Atlantic City, N.J. Indeed, Pinkett seemed the clear favorite throughout the 13-week job interview, winning all three tasks he project-managed, earning the respect of fellow cast members, and being quickly snatched up by other competitors when opportunities arose to even the teams. "Do you know what that means? That's serious, serious education." Some 800 students and alumni gathered in Kresge Auditorium to watch the live show on television. Randal Pinkett, who earned three degrees from MIT, triumphed over 17 other competitors on "The Apprentice 4" finale Dec. In the reruns, it's swapped out for an extra musical performance by Simple Minds.It's official: A star is hired. In another instance from 1985, NBC president Brandon Tartikoff appeared in a sketch to collect urine samples from cast members for drug testing, but it was later deemed to be in poor taste. NBC cut to random stock footage of car crashes, then pulled the sketch from reruns. But when the machine malfunctioned, Akroyd tried to improvise and told everyone to keep dancing, although there was no music. In the sketch, a small-town sheriff (Dan Akroyd) hosts a TV dance show, and "winners" get to have their name run through a teletype machine to check for outstanding warrants.
One of them, "Butt County Dance Party," aired in 1976. That means some "lost" sketches only survive on DVD and streaming versions. Producers often tinker with shows for reruns, often replacing a sketch that went poorly with a superior version recorded during dress rehearsal. Just because an SNL episode airs, it doesn't mean it stays that way forever. Tina Fey, however, didn't beat around the bush when she told Howard Stern who she thought was the worst: Paris Hilton. "That would be Steven Seagal." Al Franken wrote that not-really-a-joke, but many SNL alumni, including David Spade, have named the martial arts actor the show's worst host.īut according to Michaels, the worst was probably early TV star Milton Berle, who guested in 1979 and disrupted the show with mugging, ad-libbing of old and tired jokes, and arranged beforehand to have the studio audience give him a standing ovation at the end. In a 1992 episode, host Nicolas Cage confides to Michaels that he fears he'll be the worst host in the show's history. On the other end of the spectrum, there are hosts who will likely never return because they were difficult to work with, obnoxious, or both. Steve Martin, Alec Baldwin, Jon Hamm, and Melissa McCarthy are a few who have meshed well with the program. It's obvious which guests SNL likes the most, because they're the ones who keep coming back.
