Hey Facebook! No need to start a campaign for Carol Burnett to be on Saturday Night Live. She doesn't want to do it!

Carol recently admitted to having no interest in hosting the longtime comedy sketch show, claiming that "no one can top Betty [White]."

She has a good point, though if anyone could give her a run for her money… nope, not even that. Betty is unbeatable!

However, though she has no interest in getting into bed with Lorne Michaels, she wouldn't kick Ryan Murphy or Tina Fey out if they came knocking! Carol would love to guest star on 30 Rock and Glee! When asked about a cameo on Glee, Carol said:

“Oh, I would definitely do it. I’d do whatever they wanted me to, but I’d like to have a few scenes with Jane Lynch. I love her.”

Start writing, Ryan! You have a legend readily at your disposal! No time to waste!

      Betty White is a flatworm compared to Ms. Burnett, who is clearly just being kind (which is her way). Carol is in the pantheon of all-time great performers; she can do EVERYthing. Singing, writing, dancing, comedy, drama, stage, screen, catwalk. Other than Tracey Ullman, I can't think of another woman in Carol's league on television.

      I am, and always shall be, a huge fan of Carol Burnett. She is truly a delightful woman and absolutely of the highest caliber of performer.

      Love her, love her, love her! I think Betty White is darling, but Carol has her beat as far as raw talent goes.

      Carol Burnett and SNL were rivals (she was on at 10 and SNL was on at 11:30) for at least 4 years. Saturday's Night Live Motto during their first season, when deciding against a lame, predictable sketch was: 'That's so Carol Burnett." That story had to get back to Ms. Burnett.

      Carol could play Ms. Pillsbury's mom, and give Sue Sylvester what-for about giving her daughter such a hard time!

      Carol would rock SNL if she so wished. That's something I'd love to see. She and Betty? Apples and oranges. SNL humor with Carol's rubber face? Wait for it.

      Good for her! SNL has sucked for the last decade! Who watches it anymore? Drug addicts and whores?

      Carol can't play Sue's mom. Sue euthanized her. She could play Kurt's Great Aunt Mildred. The one that smells like liquor. Chris Colfer has said he wants Julie Andrews to play his grandmother.
