45 years since SNL was funny. In it’s day, it was hilarious.
It really wasn’t.
If you go back and watch entire shows, the number of misses are pretty high.
It’s been said that SNLs best years were the years when you were 16-22. The perception of the best years is entirely subjective.
That said, in the past eight years or so the trend is entirely too politically one sided. In the past they targeted both sides. That hasn’t been true for a while.
