Apparently they brought it back last night, I haven't watched the link yet but I saw a couple of skits last night and whoever writes for SNL now couldn't write a damn knock knock joke. It's really hard to make Bill Hader unfunny but they tried, even Stefan fell flat.

SNL has had political sketches since their very beginning. People are more sensitive now for some reason. Trump is an easy target because he's an idiot. Just like Ford was an easy target because he was a clutz. Trumpsters are a sensitive lot.

SNL hasn't been funny since the early 90's.

Maybe during election cycles, but they do Trump skits every weekend, make fun of his kids, etc. They would be funnier if it was once every few weeks. It's Overkill.

Weekend Update is all Trump all the time, they had Kate McKinnon playing Betsy Devos last night. When's the last time SNL spoofed the Secretary of Education?

This is the same problem with late night talk shows.

SNL has always been heavy on political skits especially as the open. Think Slick Willie and George W. BTW if Trump wouldn’t keep putting out the crazy every week, they would have no material.

SNL hasn't been funny since the National Lampoons/Second City crew all left. They are what made the show.

Hillary tops them both in those categories but they tend to leave her alone?

Lost in everything was Pete Davidson’s opening joke.

That Arcade Fire performance was god awful

They are one of those “cool bands” that people say they like just because other people say it.
