Tonight on the Tube: Saturday Night Football, Alec Baldwin on Saturday Night Live and All Six Star Wars Movies

If you haven’t heard yet the NBC show Kidnapped has been taken off the air. It will no longer be seen on Saturday nights. If you want to finish out the 13 episode run of the show you can at the NBC Kidnapped website where they will release a new episode each Friday. In other news Alec Baldwin is hosting Saturday Night Live tonight and has been part of some of the best shows in recent years. Last year’s “Always Be Cobbling” sketch was pretty good. I wonder what they will come up with this time. Will you be watching? Have you ever wanted to watch all six Star Wars movies in a row? Well tonight you can on Cinemax. See below for more info.
