NEW YORK (AP) — Sarah Palin was a big hit on "Saturday Night Live." NBC scored its highest ratings for the late-night show in 14 years, in an estimate based on the nation's biggest media markets. Nothing has done better since skater Nancy Kerrigan visited after her Olympics drama with Tonya Harding in 1994.


Palin played along as Tina Fey gave another impersonation of the Alaska governor.


Nielsen Media Research won't have a complete count of Saturday's audience until later in the week. It will likely be around 14 million people — and 17 million for the first half hour, when the opening skit happened.

Sarah Palin on SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE!!!!!!!!!!!

NBC has blocked all Oct. 18th SNL videos with Sarah Palin and Tina Fey from YouTube. So this is the only way we can present last night's sketch. They are followed by a commercial for Bill Maher's movie. So if you want to keep your breakfast, just close out and come back.

Thanks for your patience!
