SNL was never good Even its so-called “golden age” in the 70s had maybe 1 good sketch per episode buried under a pile of cringe. Brace yourself for such knee-slapping sketches like “Chevy Chase Falls Down”, “People Say The Word “Cheeseburger Really Fast”, as well as “John Belushi Mocks The Japanese.”

Haptical Sales Slut posted:It was a different time. Being a sweaty gross guy was still a novelty. also it was network tv, before cable. It killed in the Nielsens because there was literally nothing else playing on other channels during its timeslot. It’s easy to come out on top when your only competition is a holding pattern.

I don’t think his mom is dumb. It’s just that standards for comedy have changed a lot as future generations became more media-savvy. And like I said before, there was also literally nothing else to watch if you were a young boomer staying up late on a Saturday night

Disco Pope posted:SNL makes me view America as a depressing shithole more than your work culture, car worship, health care system and politics. The world looks at a country with SNL and thinks "thank god that's not me" As an American… yeah, no argument there.

The funniest thing about Steve Martin is that he’s such a socially-awkward introvert off-camera that it’s been said “to be alone in a room with Steve Martin is to be in an empty room.” I’ll also go to the mat for Only Murders in the Building, it’s been a very fun mystery comedy series. It’s also the only boomer-detective-show I’ve seen where all the jokes are at the expense of boomers
