NEW YORK, June 24 (UPI) -- NBC said it will re-air the 33-year-old premiere episode of "Saturday Night Live," featuring the iconic U.S. comedian George Carlin as host.
Carlin, who died Sunday of heart failure at the age of 71, performed three individual monologues on the inaugural program that also introduced audiences to the original "Not Ready For Prime-Time Players" -- Dan Aykroyd, John Belushi, Chevy Chase, Jane Curtin, Garrett Morris, Larraine Newman and Gilda Radner.
