The program returned for its 2 1 st season premiere on Sept.

30 with eight new cast members, more than a dozen new writers, and a seemingly rejuvenated sense of self. Snap judgment: A new lease on "Live." There were certainly lapses in the show, which was battered last season by low ratings, critical hostility and even public complaints from NBC executives. But thej program got off to a very good start with its first sketch: "O.J. Today," written by veteran Robert Smigel and satirizing the way the O.J. Simpson trial has been turned into a TV series.

It can't be easy to come up with new O.J. material at this point, but "SNL" managed. Mariel Hemingway, the guest host, threw herself body and soul into the job and lit up the show. from everything he says even as he's saying it. He made one reference to the artist formerly known as Prince, who was supposed to be the open ing night musical guest but canceled eight days before th6 show.

Spade called him "the artist formerly booked on this show but who flaked on us." A little later, Spade said that telling women he's the Unabomber works better than saying I'm on "Saturday Night that's for sure," a reference to the show's shaky status. Filmmaker James Signorelli contributed another bull's-eye commercial parody, this one for a beer called A.M. Ale "because You'd never know she was the unlucky star of one of the new season's biggest flops, "Central Park you can't wait 'til afternoon." And West" (on CBS). gave 111 percent all night. Of the new cast, few members stood out and as a group, they seemed mostly old and bland.

Short, cute Cheri Oteri clearly showed huge potential, however, in her sketches, even if the sketch staff wnter Jack Handey followed up his previous "Deep Thoughts" feature with a worthy successor, "Fuzzy Memories." The evening's sole outright disaster was a sketch lampooning cable-access sex shows in New York and starring Mark McKinney as something called The Chicken Lady. From his home in New York executive producer Lome' Michaels sounded cautiously pleased with the opening night. "There was a lot of anxiety, a lot of fussin', during the week," Michaels said, indicating network executives had been on his case, "but everybody seemed happy" after the show. NBC President es themselves weren't much. And Darrell Hammond did a stunningly accurate impression of Ted Koppel during a "Nightline" spoof that featured returnees Tim Meadows as Colin Powell and Norm MacDonald as a snarly Bob Dole.
