I haven’t watched SNL since way back when it was funny.
SNL Yawn!
It's not that they couldn't, there was plenty of material to work with. It is that they didn't want to destroy one of their own.
But as I said in another thread, I though the two skits with Melissa McCarthy as Sean Spicer were hilarious.
And since the election, they've done several skits all with the theme of liberal white people trying to understand the struggle of blacks, while the blacks just shake their heads in disbelief.
This season there was a short film with a bunch of liberals living in their own left wing utopia domed city, with everything just the way liberals like it, until you get to the very end where they say apartments start at $1.5 million, and there is no fire or police protection because they couldn't find anyone to take the jobs.
Then of course there was the skit several years ago depicting George Soros as "Owner, Democratic Party."
They know where the target rich environments are, but they also don't want to take out their own kind. But once in a while they just can't help themselves.
SNL is as passe as doing the bump at discos.
What's a SNL? Sounds slimy.
There are a few New York Marxist that still think people watch that show. That is all.
SNL who??
You mean SNL => “Snot Nosed Liberals”?
Leftards and NE media “conservatives” watch it. Apart from that....
About two weeks ago I gave up on SNL completely. Lately the skits that were not politics were just crewed&rude. I remember watching that last episode for a half hour and thinking- “Why am I watching this? I’ve not laughed even once.”
In 2012, "SNL" writer Jim Downey was still declaring Obama mockery impossible. He said: "Obama doesn't give you much to grab onto. He's like a smooth rock face of perfect obsidian with no ledges or toeholds, and your job is to scale 200 feet of it."
Who does watch SNL anymore? Not a lot of people I suppose. They have gone from a funny parody type show to a nasty political hack type show. That’s not funny for most. Most people I talk to are of the same mind. I could not find anybody who still watches.
McKinnon is the one who did the Justin Bieber impersonations. She’s funny. And hot. And whatever.
For people who honestly can’t imagine any comedic flaws with X44, might I suggest: https://youtu.be/poz6W0znOfk
