I remember that skit clearly, and thought it slightly strange at the time.

“Saturday Night Live is still on the air???????”

Only a liberal wasteland show could last that long.

They did quite a job on Gerald Ford too.

Lorne Michaels destroyed that stupid show ages ago. He deserves a good swift kick in the nuts for all the anti- conservative liberal garbage they’ve pedaled all those years.

SNL. 'Saturday Night Live Lynching' of America and conservative ideals.

“They had one funny skit years ago with the talking Trump-dog.”

Yes occasionally they will have a good skit here and there. Even the classic SNL shows did not always have good skits. Some of them were just crap - particularly in the first season.

SNL has always been uneven and one would have to sit through stupid stuff for the gems which were hysterical back in the day. I might do that in my 20s. But who’s got time for that now? Plus the hard left slant makes it unwatchable now.

During one stretch of SNL, Al Franken ended every show standing on the stage and announcing, “This program has been brought to you by the Communist Party.”

I will never forget the first time I saw that dreck.

The station(KVOO 2 Tulsa) always had Fantastic Theater on Saturday nights. Horror and Si-Fi!

I sat down, in 1975, with my soda pop and popcorn and instead some voice comes on yelling..”LIVE FROM NEW YORK! IT’S SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE!”

Where is my sifi movie? I watched that dreck hoping they would have the movie on afterward. Nope. Never voluntarily watched it again.

Last time I was that upset was when I had to set through Playboy Penthouse back in 1961, before the Si-fi movie came on.

The 90’s was when I stopped watching. The TH author must be living under a rock if he’s surprised. I worked for Sandler here in L.A. on a project and he’s not a lib per se.

It’s an old joke that nobody likes SNL when it’s on, just that it used be better. It’s absolutely true though. It was pretty great in the 90s until Phil Hartman was murdered. The casts ever since have been real unfunny dullards.

It’s happened to a lot of shows since the leftist revolution since Bush in media. Nobody cares about South Park anymore. The left just can’t be funny cause to be funny you almost always have to offend someone and be bold, which is extinct outside a few standup acts.

Does this article mean Dave Chapelle when they say Dave Chapell?

More cowbell and Colonel Angus were my two favorites and both had Christopher Walken in them.
