'SNL' ready for primetime


December 06, 2007 NBC is trying out "Saturday Night Live" compilations as a regular primetime series on Saturdays. Sources indicated that plans for a series of "SNL" specials to air Saturday nights have been in the works for months and are not related to the ongoing writers strike. Saturday has become a land of repeats for the major broadcast networks, and "SNL"-branded shows are considered a good alternative to drama reruns on the other channels.
