Truth be told, there were a few great skits over the years, but for the most part it has received way more hype than it ever deserved. You can pick out your favorite era and try to watch a few full episodes, and you will find yourself bored to tears.

I even tried to watch a few of the "greatest hits" of Sandler, Farley, Spade, etc.. and the stuff just didn't age well. It was probably funnier in high school or college because I was with a group of people, it is just the affect of laughing when other people around.

Never watch a compilation of them at one time. Spit them up or you will get bored with it very soon.

I loved the one of Will Ferrell at the dinner table, and also the one where he was a cheerleader with Cheri Oteri. And him as the old prospector was hilarious.

NEVER, EVER thought Adam Sandler has been funny as an actor, he’s a very good writer though IMO. When he acts it’s just not funny to me, it never has been. Same thing with David Spade. Better as a writer. I can’t even fake laugh at him when he’s trying to be funny. I don’t know what he’s trying to do.

Chris Farley, Will Ferrell, and Dana Carvey were always hilarious to me, but I can see how people could think Chris Farley tried way too hard. Norm MacDonald’s weekend updates were brilliant.
