Betty White on SNL

You have watched last week’s Saturday Night Live on DISH Network for sure! So, how did you like Betty White as host of the show? The 88-year old Betty White made her much-awaited and much-hyped debut on Saturday Night Live. It was not a disappointment for the viewers! In fact, the show has got the best rating of the year after Betty made her presence on the show.

Some of the highlights of the show included the death metal version of the Golden Girls theme song. Betty’s ability to share fun with everyone sometimes turns out to be a little raunchy and so is Betty’s role as a muffin chef on NPR.

Along with Betty the show’s special episode for Mother’s Day brought back some of the most famous female casts of the show on DISH Network. Rachel Dratch, Molly Shannon, Ana Gasteyer, Maya Rudolph, Amy Poehler all are invited to the show.

Fans of Betty thanked her on Facebook for her appearance on the Saturday Night Live show on DISH TV. It was her fans that ran a campaign on the social media site to bring Betty as the host of the show. Betty had said that she had not heard about Facebook before and she further said, “and now that I do know what it is, I have to say it sounds like a huge waste of time.”

But her appearance on the DISH Network show was not a waste of time for sure since it has brought the highest rating for SNL in 18 months.
