<P>While <a href="/news/articles/1680377/lindsay-lohan-hosts-saturday-night-live.jhtml">Lindsay Lohan's "Saturday Night Live"</a> hosting gig received mixed reviews, <a href="/news/articles/1680406/linsday-lohan-snl-ratings.jhtml">Lohan's episode delivered</a> the second-highest ratings of the season. Yet another measure of success came recently from some of the show's castmembers when they weighed in on her performance. </P><P> </P><P><embed src="http://media.mtvnservices.com/mgid:uma:video:mtv.com:746082/cp~vid%3D746082%26uri%3Dmgid%3Auma%3Avideo%3Amtv.com%3A746082" width="460" height="260" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullScreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" base="."></embed> </P><P> </P><P>MTV News' Josh Horowitz caught up with Bobby Moynihan and Taran Killam Sunday night, and they had only kind words for the actress. "I think she did great. There were a lot of expectations, and I hope we met [them]," Moynihan said on the red carpet of Amnesty International's Secret Policeman's Ball. "I think she really wanted to do a good job, and I think she pulled through." </P><P> </P><P>It's no secret that Lohan's troubled past meant she had a <a href="/news/articles/1680215/lindsay-lohan-snl-today.jhtml">fair share of naysayers</a> going into Saturday's performance, but the cast was eager to support her. "I think it's one of the things about 'SNL' ... we really want people to succeed and I hope that was clear," Moynihan said. "It's always nice to see someone happy and doing things they like." </P><P> </P><P>Killam agreed that Lohan did well, despite the actress' critics. "I'm sure, as was the energy leading up to the week, there was apprehension, but she was just such a good sport that it was really fun," he said. </P><P> </P><P>The "SNL" studio is familiar territory for Lohan, which ultimately may have helped make her comfortable, Killam pointed out. "She's got a history with the show," he said. "It's her fourth time doing it, so there's definitely a familial vibe with her. She truly was game and gave it her all." </P><P> </P><P><center><object width="456" height="256"><param name="movie" value="http://www.hulu.com/embed/hKW9TDp340gIz6EIaJMflA/403/3757/i428"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.hulu.com/embed/hKW9TDp340gIz6EIaJMflA/403/3757/i428" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="456" height="256" allowFullScreen="true"></embed></object></center> </P><P> </P><P><i>Do you agree with the 'SNL' cast's critique of Lindsay Lohan's performance?
