[Skip Intro]

1. I totally thought SNL was broadcast live, beginning to end.

How do they have sketches in front of the audience that didn't air?

2. dress rehearsal

# This is followed by a dress rehearsal performed in front of the studio audience, which lasts from 8 p.m. - 10 p.m. (or sometimes later) and contains approximately twenty minutes of material which will be deleted from the final broadcast.

3. some of the segments are pre-filmed, so some of those might get cut

4. Awesome - thnx for posting this - she was great. Worst thing about the show was

jay-z. ugh. his first song/set took soooooo long damn they could have easily put in another sketch if he wont' so full of himself. betty barely even had time to thank everyone and say goodnight before BAM no credits really just show over.

Gonna watch these now. :)
