Peter Dinklage

  What a hilarious personality?! Peter Dinklage is an actor that many are familiar with in the fantasy drama of Game of Thrones. He is brilliant and an Emmy award winner in that role and has more to him than his serious whits. He has comedic whits as well. I have seen him in Death at a Funeral and in other fantasy dramas like Chronicles of Narnia but nothing could prepare me for how quick this man truly is when up to bat with Jon Stewart on the Daily Show.
                                                                                  Peter Dinklage on The Daily Show
The point! The world should know better of what his skills truly entail. Alas, Peter Dinklage and whoever his agent is tease us with only giving us 5 min glimpses of his comedic talents. Such as his most recent appearance on a mainstream channel for a cameo on SNL.
                                                             Sorry for the poor quality. Peter Drunklage and Drunk Uncle on SNL
Even more to the point! Mr Peter Dinklage must and should be on a future episode of SNL as HOST! With his personality and the crazy popular shows he is now starring in, Dinklage would be the honest real talent SNL needs to maintain. No more Lindsey Lohan or other Sunday morning headlines talking about the next week's set of skit failures on SNL the previous night. It might just be that they haven't or couldn't come up with something good enough yet. Well, to that I say, let Peter Dinklage just improv(e) it. Is there a reason why every skit the actors/comedians can't handle looking away from the prompter? Yes some are still so clever and funny but news anchors have more presence reading off a prompter than how some of the skits work out on SNL. Or now that Jimmy Fallon is making his way to the top as a talk show host he can right a skit for them here and there.

Anyways, Peter Dinklage and SNL need and should merge. Even if they can't come up with a script good enough his popularity from Game of Thrones will bring in the viewers. Hopefully, the viewers will understand that it isn't Mr Dinklage's fault if the skits aren't that great.

Before I get too ranty, just remember that good hosts are very helpful at making a good show. So vote Peter Dinklage.
