SNL Goes Full-Blown Woke

Once upon a time comedy was meant to make you laugh by poking fun at real life things. Things that may offend, and while most people laughed it off, it has become blasphemy to even consider talking about such things in today’s woke society. “Wokeness” has started to creep into the world by extreme Leftists, and real comedy has become a thing of the past.

Saturday Night Live is a prime example, and if you thought it couldn’t get anymore woke, think again.

The show added its first ever nonbinary cast member to the lineup who will make regular appearances every weekend.

Actor Molly Kearney will join SNL for its 48th season, meaning it’s time to say goodbye to the show we once knew.

Kearney rejects the gender “binary” and does not identify as a man nor a woman, but instead opts for gender-neutral pronouns instead.

This comes after a mass exodus of actors who were longtime characters on the show left. Kate McKinnon, Pete Davidson, Aidy Bryant, and Kyle Mooney have all decided to move on, however it is unclear why they decided to go.

From Alec Baldwin’s Donald Trump to Jim Carey’s Joe Biden, almost every show has someone impersonating a political figure, usually aimed at bashing the Right.

That’s what I said, the Carvey, Meyers, Hartman years were so great.

The late 70s and early 80s weren’t that good. Late 80s sucked. The Trump episode was so bad I can’t even remember anything from it.

I wouldn’t be surprised if SNL does that.

Maybe Molly has never watched SNL.

This might be out of there, but I had a bit of a crush on Julia Sweeny, especially in her brief Pulp Fiction cameo.

It’s such a shame that she turned out to be a bitter old hag later on.

Don’t forget about the music. It ranged all the way from good, bad, awesome, to WTF. But all in all it used to be worth it. Now for decades the acts are as if they’re not Teen Choice Awards candidates, the show doesn’t want them.

It's a publicity stunt. She's clearly a woman. If she wants to cut her hair short and wear a tie, maybe she could make the nonbinary thing work.

Back then the cast only had 9 members. 7 were Not Ready For Primetime Players and two were occasional. Now I count 22 cast members which shows it takes over twice as many people to suck at something these days.

Consider this two 90s SNL stars are now 100% anti Democrat. Rob Schneider and Jim Breuer.
