I watched the opening and the guy they have as Biden sucks. Even the jokes were garbled and dumb.


What’s the problem? Seems like he nailed the character.

Don't worry. I won't be going anywhere. The liberal turds need to keep it around to influence elections.


How exactly will a show that's kept around despite nobody watching influence an election?

Trump said it best.

Everything woke turns to shite. These people live in a bubble where they can't be wrong, but nobody else is buying that crap. You see it everywhere. Gutfield on Fox news is beating Colbert and Kimmel in ratings. Cnn is still losing viewers meanwhile Fox News is still going strong. All of the celebrities self gratification awards shows? Nobody watches that shite. People don't like it. I've gotten to the point that I won't watch certain things because of who is in it. Starring Robert DeNiro? I'll pass.

Unfortunately, SNL is a zombie that will keep shambling on because they have the ability to completely turn over a cast and try something new every so often.


Whenever the show hit its rock bottom, like in 1980-1981, 1985-1986, and 1994-1995, they pretty much canned everybody except a few key players and tried again.

That said, SNL has ALWAYS leaned left. Most comedy has. What's being missed is that it leaned left then because it was cool to be counter culture. Left was hip and not "the man." It was rebellious and punk.


Update under Norm was pretty right leaning. Always gotten the impression that everyone in Sandler’s crew (minus Chris Rock) were pretty right leaning.

It's clear that Norm hated the Clintons, but I think that his Update felt "right leaning" simply because he had them to work with every week during his time there. He was obviously a dick with no boundaries, so he was going to eat them alive. I honestly don't recall him going after more "traditional" target when he was on, but again, it could very well have been that The Clintons were such attention hogs. But he was clearly more right leaning as he got older and you saw him outside the confines of the SNL Update. Even so, he's the exception that proves the rule. He stuck out precisely because, as with most of his comedy, he went the other way.

Yeah, as they've gotten older it does feel that way. Which is odd, because Sandler is tight with Judd Apatow, who is a gaping leftist vagina.

Seriously, you wouldn’t find 3rd Grade plays this juvenile. If Norm was on the cast, he probably would have found some homeless crackhead on the streets and given her a thousand bucks just to crash the opening: YouTube


Yeah... That was pretty cringe.

I thought it was going to be the 'All I want for Christmas is Bob Mueller' skit... nope.

Then I thought it was the first time I watched them bring mothers on the show but that had a somewhat happy ending with one mother asking them to lighten up on Trump.... Nope

This was just another cringe.

SNL and the rest of the late shows still proving the assertion: Everything woke turns to shite.

I watched some of the Dave Chappelle one, but that's the only one since they actively sabotaged the show when Trump was on it.

Biggest reason they suck is they ae not allowed to make fun of Biden and most of the BS that is going on the country. People see thru the fakeness of it all and just decide to tune out.

remember watching SNL in the 70s and 80s. Just another good show ruined by leftist propaganda.


I was a devout SNL viewer…really thought it was some humorous shite. Now I watch an old rerun and have a hard time seeing anything that’s particularly funny. Maybe it was all the weed, beer and Doritos that we smoked and consumed that made SNL funny in the 70’s-80’s…..lol!

Just the latest substantial cultural Institution corrupted and diminished by Cultural Marxism. From fresh and irreverent to stale Ruling Class cultural guardians in the blink of an eye. There is absolutely no chance Loren Michaels can still get a boner at this point.

At this point they could roll Norm McDonald's coffin on state and play some of his stand up on a recorder and get better ratings.

Those were the good ole days. Now, you're not allowed to have fun because somebody somewhere is being oppressed or experiencing racial injustice or looking for a better life in America or having to suffer with the unvaxxed, etc. But at least no one is being traumatized by mean tweets!

It started the downward spiral when they fired Norm MacDonald for his OJ jokes.

Norm, Chris Farley, Tracy Morgan, they were the best.
