Jim Carrey Hosted Saturday Night Live Scores Season-High Ratings For NBC

News

It appears Jim Carrey is still a hit on live sketch comedy shows (In Living Color much?)

The Jim Carrey-hosted Saturday Night Live rocked in last night’s ratings. Based on early info, the NBC sketch show scored a 7.8 rating/18 share — its largest audience of the season and its best numbers since Betty White’s high-profile hosting stint last May. The network obviously benefitted from the football lead-in.
