“Hilarious” and “SNL” are two concepts which have not been used in the same sentence in the last 20 years.
In before the inevitable dorks who need to bore us about how SNL “hasn’t been funny since Belushi days”. Yawn.
Cold Open for SNL 1991. Clarence Thomas hearings.
Pretty darn funny.

I normally avoid SNL but this is a good watch.
Woody Harrelson as Biden was pretty funny. Larry David as Bernie was good too.
The Greta bit was tacked on at the end. Their audience didn't think it was mocking, they thought it was a public service announcement.
Too late. I haven’t bothered to watch SNL since at least the early to mid 90s....the last time it was actually funny.
They had a good run from the late 80s through the mid 90s with Chris Rock, Chris Farley, Phil Hartman, Mike Myers, Dana Carvey, Adam Sandler, John Lovitz, etc. Notice how many of those had success outside of SNL.
Look at their casts since then. Notice how few of them had success in anything else.
Maybe they saw the British election result and have shitted themselves with the realisation that if they don’t go after the cranks on their side, they will keep losing.
'Now I'm gonna tell you a long rambling story that's gonna make a lot of you uncomfortable'
Kate McKinnon is in the movie about Fox news Roger Ailes. She is 1 of 2 fictional characters and of course she is a lesbian. I read that she beds a Fox news employee as well.
Good point! Plus, why they pay Michael Che to be on there is a mystery to me.
