I remember the original SNL when it first started. It was hip, funny, off the wall. The Coneheads. Belushi the Samurai. Sweet little Gilda "Never Mind" Radnor. All very funny skits.

WHAT THE HELL is funny about incest and insulting a Vice-Presidential candidate's innocent family?!?!

Although I didn't see it, it sounds Brilliant and Right On.

Sounds like the wrong people got angry to me.

SNL — a bunch of idiots making more in a year then they are worth in a lifetime!! Sorry, SNBD (Saturday Night Brain Dead) is not worth watching.

Todd Palin could own NBC if he wants to. Just sue them for $2B. And sell it. He's a private citizen. I know a law firm in Calabasas, CA that only does big cases. But the lawyer that runs the place took my case of an illegal alien that almost killed me by running a red light. Their car stopped at a 45 deg angle up a tree. The car I was a passenger in had it's front end knocked 200 feet down the street. 3:30 PM. After work. I was knocked out.

We had pictures of eveything. Some guy pulled me out and I was walking. My black buddy had a concussion. We got $. And those illegal aliens got deported.

I bought an F-250 SD 4WD soon after. Let some illegal alien hit this 3 tons running a red light. I will not rescue. That's over.

I loved Charlton Heston before this episode of SNL, but after this appearance, he took on almost saintly qualities in my eyes.

http://www.indianaauditions.com/forum/showthread.php?p=76461

The Saturday Night Live Anniversary Show where he came out in a tux and said...

Charlton Heston: Over it's 15-year history, "Saturday Night Live" has offended more than a few of its viewers. In fact, it's probably safe to say that, at one time or another, the show has offended every single one of its viewers. It will therefore come as no surprise that, week after week, the mail brings hundreds of angry, even ugly, letters. Tonight, I've been asked to read one of these letters. This is dated March 19th, 1978:

[ reads letter ]

"Nausea. Violent, gut-churning nausea. That's the only way I can describe the revulsion I felt as I watched last week's episode of the show called "Saturday Night Live". Vulgar, snide, purile. Devoid of either taste or intellectual content, let alone humor. "Saturday Night Live" displays in show after dreadful show, its sniggering contempt for even the appalling standards of network television. What kind of world are we living in, that this is considered entertainment? As I sat stunned by this abomination, quite literally sick to my stomach, it occurred to me that your cast and writers resemble nothing so much as a collection of spoiled children throwing a party the weekend Mommy and Daddy are away. Well, NBC, perhaps its time Mommy and Daddy came home, assumed their parental responsibilities, and removed this weekly affront to the mind and spirit from our television screens. Signed: Charlton Heston."

I saw the show. The skit was relentlessly mocking the media for their anti-Palin bias. To protest this skit as anti-Palin - particularly if you didn’t even see it - would be very silly indeed.

This is satire, folks. A bit unseemly, but not, in my opinion, aimed to be negative. It is a satire of the way the stupid rumors about Palin spread so quickly and viciously.

Others have said it, and I will add my 2 cents: this was NOT an anti-Palin skit, but rather, one that made the NY Times look like the biased arses they are.

Even reading this in print is disgusting. I can't believe such crap was broadcast over public waves.

My wife says that every time the media attack governor Palin, more women are become like to feel camaraderie toward her.

Let the media keep doing this nasty work. It might boomerang.

How is this any worse than the prior week’s atrocious “VPILF” comments?

Anyone?

Mr. Stein?

It occurs to me that when the new “Moose Hunting” Palin song was posted the other day on FR as performed by Pat Garrett, anti Palin types on the source site were writing posts that implied Garrett has a criminal record involving children. I could find nothing online saying any such thing, so figure this must be a new, sick Dem strategy, the pedophile/incest insinuation. Wouldn’t surprise me.

You have to wonder why NBC yanked the video off of YouTube so quickly yesterday. And if it was for copyright issues, then why are other SNL skits still out there on YouTube?
