Tonight SNL is back. Back at being really truly good.

Arrested Development conversation at the Yankee Stadium last night

Guy 1: Oh my god so I just learned today that Lindsay in Arrested Development is lesbian. Did you know that?
Guy 2: Uhm duh.
Guy 1: But she's so hot!
Guy 2: Where have you been? She's married to Ellen Degeneres.
Guy 1: But she pulls of this heterosexual thing so well! And she didn't wear a bra in the first season!
Guy 2: Dude I'm gay. And you're married.

Lady 1: This looks like the stuff that showed up on my front door after Sandy.
Lady 2: Why are you photographing us?

At 00:30 last night this old lady just stood in the train’s doorway, not moving or looking up, probably hurting her neck

White Men, Everyone Else: Gender and Ethnic Diversity on Cable News

Media Matters spent the month of April reviewing evening guests on cable news. The results, unfortunately, don’t surprise: CNN, Fox News, and MSNBC “overwhelmingly host male and white guests.”

Read through for the details as the watchdog group breaks down the numbers for each network. We learn, for instance, that “Out of 1,677 total guests, CNN had the largest proportion of men — 76 percent — during the month of April;” and “Fox News had the largest proportion of white guests — 83 percent.”

Hat tip to Chris Hayes, whose show is the most diverse in cable evening news. And getting there isn’t very difficult. “We just would look at the board and say, ‘We already have too many white men. We can’t have more,’” Hayes told Ann Friedman at the Columbia Journalism Review back in March. “Really, that was it.”
