My Obsessions: Savannah Guthrie Dreams of Jason Bateman, Misses ‘Mad Men’ and Watches News at 3:30AM

Homeland. The plotlines have been consistently surprising and intriguing, and Claire Danes is mesmerizing.
My dream costar
Jason Bateman. He is funny, talented—and tall.

Mad Men—especially the first few seasons. I remember seeing the Season 1 finale and my jaw was on the floor.
What I eat while watching
Ice cream! But only on weekends.
The show I’d like to guest star on

Kate McKinnon. She exudes that bizarre hilarity from every cell.
The first thing I watch when I wake up
Cable news, at 3:30am.
The last thing I watch before I go to bed
