I do remember funny moments, but a lot of the show’s appeal came from the fact that they were different from everything else on TV. People were laughing at things that they didn’t expect to see on television. That kind of appeal doesn’t last. The rest of the culture catches up. Plus, SNL repeats itself and has lost its satirical edge.
