Guest alert: Kevin Bacon
By
Hee! I just noticed that Kevin Bacon is listed among Stephen’s great guest lineup for the upcoming week. That made me think of this segment from when the writers came back (oh happy day!), and it’s a slow news day, so I thought I’d repost:
[Editor's note: It still cracks me up without end that he had people like Mikhail Baryshnikov and Judy Miller show up for walk-ons like that.]

Why didn’t Allison run out?

Not sure.
My idle speculation would lead me to think that, as an Executive Producer, she probably would have been working (in a non-writing capacity) during the strike, like Stephen was. It’s just a guess, though.

Wow, I just noticed that Tiki Barber was also in the walk-ons. Way to go Stephen on getting him. =)

Great video! I still remember how excited we all were the day the writers came back from the strike. Watching this video makes me happy all over again.

I know — that was a wonderful day. I loved it when Mr. Met came out too! So funny!
I almost bet Stephen will ask him how many degrees from himself he is.
I’m just now noticing the guests for next week…aside from Kevin Bacon…Toni Morrison and Michael Phelps! Wow! Great gets!
