My uncles loved SNL. They all stopped watching it, it’s unwatchable.
Even libs MUST be sick of the non-stop Trump attacks, there is more in the world to make fun of!
I don’t know at what point I stopped watching regularly. I think around 1999 going by rechecking the cast list. They had three decent stretches with good performers, the 1975-80 era with the original gang. The mid ‘80s or so (Eddie Murphy, etc.), and into the early/mid ‘90s (Phil Hartman, Chris Farley, etc.). When the latter group started to leave in the mid to late ‘90s, the replacements just didn’t measure up and I couldn’t tell one from another.
I could probably count on one hand how many times I watched after 2000. It seemed to get more hyper-politicized as it went along (not that it was never left-leaning, but it just got vicious and slanderous). When Tina Scarfeyce did Sarah Palin, that was the last straw for me, especially when people were falsely accusing Palin of what Scarfeyce said in her character assassination bits. We need not even mention Baldwin’s similar assassination of President Trump.
