NBC re-airs a classic Saturday Night Live overnight Saturday nights in many markets.
I just noticed this weekend's edition is the 1982 SNL with host John Madden & musical guest Jennifer Holliday. She performs both "And I'm Telling You..." and "One Night Only".
In NYC, it airs this Saturday night/Sunday morning at 3am on NBC.
The cool thing about the classic SNL's on NBC is that they show the full 90 minute show & not the 60-minute edits that appeared on Comedy Central and now on E! So both performances should remain in the show that airs this weekend.
enjoy
awesome thanks for the headsup

I haven't seen it before, but I am looking forward to watching it.
It airs here at 3:31 (oy) but I'm either watching it or taping it!
wow thanks!!!!
Thanks for the reminder. I was actually in the audience at that taping!
Wow, Tom. How very cool!
I've never seen this. I hope it airs in L.A.
(you know, that place that everybody hates?)
Jesus, Tom, you're OOOOLLLLD!!!
What's exciting about this is it's when she still sang it purely and without affect. Leading Ladies DVD anyone?
Thanks, just what I need to hear! (sound of creaking bones)

WOW! Thanks for the heads up!
This is HUGE NEWS! I believe this is the first time in 20 some years that this SNL episode with Jennifer's performance has re-aired on TV.
It would be great if someone watching tonight put these two songs on YouTube!!!
Airs tonight (Sat) at 3:00AM - 4:30AM on the East Coast! (NBC)
Darlene Love was singing a song that was a spoof of the type of song she used to sing as a recording artist in the '60s. She was a successful performer decades before HAIRSPRAY, which, in fact, was not even her Broadway debut.

The only thing to note about Darlene Love is she kicked some Bukley booty in the musical that launched no careers.
