I’m sorry, but is that supposed to be some form of entertainment?

SNL has been known to poke fun at sacred cows…

That certainly explains all the people on BSky passively aggressively sniping at SNL this morning. “They’re not funny, they’ve never been funny”. Which is weird, because so many SNL anti-trump/MAGA skits get gleefully shared. What makes me sad about this specific skit is that to take a veiled swipe at trans dogma, they’re dumping on a gay couple. Admittedly the issue of surrogacy is lurking unsaid in the background, but they didn’t have the nerve to address that through a straight couple.

SNL was entertaining in the 70’s. I guess you had to be there.

Some bits were funny in the 70s. Others not so much. It’s always been a bit hit or miss, but they were always trying different stuff. A lot of good performers came out of there

SNL is and has always been a mixed bag. That’s sketch comedy for you. Some things are completely terrible. Some things are just about perfect. Try “Goth Kid on Vacation,” from a week ago:
Huh. Open mockery of the utterly shambolic reasoning of the ideninny movement. I didn’t find it funny – it was a little too real for that – but I like it anyway.
