... I mean I think he's aware of how it works. Weird Al, given his track record with respecting other people's work even above what he is required to do, doesn't seem like the type to ask to be a part of it and then demand it to be done his way.

I think they could make something work. SNL has its own style, but they tend to adore when they have comedic hosts who will play the goofy roles. Weird Al seems like a great fit... Musical numbers, collaborations with Please Don't Destroy... I think it has big potential.
