Seth MacFarlane got laughs hosting the season premiere of "Saturday Night Live," even from the Olympic gold medalist he ridiculed.

Ryan Lochte told Celebuzz that the "Family Guy" creator's impersonation during Weekend Update "pegged him wrong," but that he was amused by it. MacFarlane made the 28-year-old swimmer seem, well, stupid.

"Well, I got to admit that was a pretty harsh one, but it's cool to have Seth parody me," Lochte said.

"It's all in fun and of course if I'm talked about on 'SNL,' I know they are gonna get me go-od," he said, referring to MacFarlane's joke about Lochte mispronouncing "good."
