'Saturday Night Live' Jon Hamm and Rihanna Recap 2010/11/1 10:53:54

Jon Hamm isn't a household name. Sure, he plays Don Draper on AMC's 'Mad Men,' but as popular as that show is, there are still a lot of people who probably think he's some 'Bachelorette' reject. But what about his comedic chops? Certainly, being funny isn't a host prerequisite, but it helps... a lot.

Nothing is funnier than when someone you think is going to bomb comes out and kills it. Jon Hamm is the new Alec Baldwin in this regard. Ruggedly handsome and an almost exclusively dramatic career, completely taking people off-guard by crushing the 'SNL' hosting gig, then starring on '30 Rock.' Not an easy task when everyone you come in contact with is imagining you with your shirt off.

Cold Open: Jason Sudekis opened the show as Vice President Joe Biden addressing the nation while President Obama was out on the campaign trail. "When things can't get any worse, it's Biden time!" They took a pretty sharp poke at American entitlement by comparing Americans to Chilean miners. As long as Americans are above ground, they need to stop whining. "Don't be whiners. Think about the miners."
