Gov Media Complex in disarray. Lorne Michaels handlers still think the younger generation watches his show?

Or any television for that matter.

They didn’t open with Hillary Rotten Clinton, they opened with Trump.

Few things are more repulsive than the sight of Ellen boogieing with the likes of Hillary and Moochelle.

Do you know the pedigree of the clip of Hillary bellying-up behind the black woman stroking her crotch? Is that legit?

This should give Trump a five-point bump.

The more they attack him, the stronger he gets.

I saw the Trump skit, and it was not particularly mean-spirited, IMHO. I mean, come on, it's satirical comedy. Personally, I like irreverent humor.

Overall, they're relatively consistent in their bashing over at SNL. I remember back in the early days some of the Jimmy Carter stuff was brutal.

It was actually reasonably amusing, and as others have observed, once you've made SNL, you've hit the big time.

I agree, this type of stuff won't hurt Trump, in fact it will probably help push him more effectively into the mainstream, so to speak...

In before the “I haven’t watched SNL since the second show...” Comments.

Then there's always the, "I don't even own a T.V. therefore I'm better than you" crowd.

However, Palin never said this in real life. Yet amazingly, the whole country, including many conservatives who should have known better, assumed this was something Sarah Palin herself actually said.

Obama said: "I can see Vlad's nads from the tip of my nose!"

Because of the shadows and Hillary seems out of focus it does seem photoshopped.

But here is a 1:06 minute clip of Hillary, she moves up and holds hands, before they start to grind, ...CNN had the same clip.

Hillary dancing in Johannesburg Africa (August 7, 2012)

Actually, the clip seems legit.

Chevy Chase says that in the years he was with SNL, they absolutely made an effort to affect the outcome of the elections.

Likely true for the year he was a cast member.

Chevy Chase was a full-time cast member for only the first year.

It would if anyone besides liberal douchebags watched that dumb show anymore.... They don't and haven't for decades.

Just watched Cankles skit. Does anyone know how I can unsee that?

Well, you could commit seppuku but other than that you're on your own.

I thought the Trump open was very funny! He is a comedy goldmine!

After their original cast left the building, we quit watching because it was no longer funny, just LOUD! Did watch this clip....and it’s still no longer funny.

Hillary was on SNL in person tonight. They did make fun of her but it was pretty mild.

I think Palin could have done a better job rebutting that perception. - She probably wasn't counting on the lower 48 at being so backward and easily fooled

Not bad really-- I thought the Jimmy Fallon with the real Donald in the mirror routine was A-1.

The entire Show was a Trump / Republican Bashing Session.

A little harmless Joke or two about Bernie were thrown in to appease their special Guest Hillary, who even made a Trump Joke in her little Bartender Skit.

Not one Joke about Benghazi / Email Server Clinton. I guess they just couldn’t think up any funny material about her.

In other words, nothing I didn’t expect.
