wtf??? how has this lame dogshit show been on for 50 fucking years??? nobody actually still watches this crap, do they?
>>203688011they gotta find some new weekend update hosts, Jost & Che are phoning it in big time in recent years like theyre sick of hosting it but like most people on SNL nowadays they stay forever because comedy is dead so theres nowhere to go after SNL anymore
>>203688011The pre-taped segments are always better than the live sketches. I have no idea why they even bother doing it live.
>>203688011lol is Jost supposed to be Kamala?
>>203688011Man I have not heard a cultural peep out of SNL since the dick in a box guy
>>203688011When Bill Hader and Fred Armisen left it was over for good.
>>203688113Saying lol at that and also knowing who that is is pathetic Kill yourself faggot
>>203688011>50 years on the air>only about 5 of them were actually funny and that was in the 90s
>>203688011television seems to have something of a legacy fetish. nobody watches this boomer slop any more than they watch the Simpsons or late night talk shows but the metals Methuselah likes in charge of these networks can't let go of "old profitable thing" even when it hasn't been profitable in decades. Seriously, Summe Sumner Redstone only died like a year or two ago and he was like 100 when he finally kicked it. and Rothschild was like 97. Does the NSDT3 gene imbue longevity as well as schizophrenia and Stay Sachs?
Can't get Baldin back, because he killed a woman.
>>203688011i got peacock just so i could stream it live on saturday nights. i subscribe to their channel on youtube and have a playlist called snl faves with all my favorite sketches. it's my favorite show.
>>203688188
>>203688011I thought this kind of stuff wasn't allowed anymore.
>>203688011whens that movie coming out based on the first year of SNL?
>>203688302For me, it's the McChicken. The best fast food sandwich. I even ask for extra McChicken sauce packets and the staff is so friendly and more than willing to oblige.One time I asked for McChicken sauce packets and they gave me three. I said, "Wow, three for free!" and the nice friendly McDonald's worker laughed and said, "I'm going to call you 3-for-free!".Now the staff greets me with "hey it's 3-for-free!" and ALWAYS give me three packets. It's such a fun and cool atmosphere at my local McDonald's restaurant, I go there at least 3 times a week for lunch and a large iced coffee with milk instead of cream, 1-2 times for breakfast on the weekend, and maybe once for dinner when I'm in a rush but want a great meal that is affordable, fast, and can match my daily nutritional needs.I even dip my fries in McChicken sauce, it's delicious! What a great restaurant.
>>203688188SNL decades ranked:90s70s2000s2010s80sdogshit2020s
>>203688061comedy is having a massive resurgence, wtf are you talking about? the reason these losers stay on SNL is because they are industry plants that were never funny. organic comedy like kill tony and shane gillis are selling out stadiums, but the mainstream ignores it because it's "le ebil chud comedy"
>>203688011>>203688340how horribly transphobic and racist of them.
>>203688011>The most insane election in American historyare they being sarcastic? I can't tell anymore.
>>203688351why did all the men in 70s SNL all have porn mustaches back then? i remember always wondering why Aykroyd would be playing Richard Nixon and Jimmy Carter in sketches with a mustache then realized that was cuz Aykroyd on SNL almost always had a mustache i dont think they cared about the people looking like the person they were impersonating in those days, like Chevy would just look like himself playing President Ford
>>203688392Name one funny Shane gillis or Tony hinchcliffe joke
>>203688455look up Shanes joke about how hot he finds black guys cocks are, youll fall out your chair laughing
>>203688188They had another good era with Hader, Parnell, Suidekis and others.
>>2036883601986-1990 is absolutely great and way better than the 2000s and 2010s.
>>203688455the Madea goes to the moon bit was great, but you'll disagree because you're a contrarian faggot.i answered your question, so please tell me who you think is a funny modern up and coming commedian?
>>203688392Seth Simons would have a heart attack if he found out about Adam Egret.
>>203688351what a DEI woke cast
>>203688448They knew everyone watching were all high as fuck and didn't give a shit. Garrett Morris could've played Nixon and no one would care
>>203688455Jack Reacher
>>203688011>leftists go batshit crazy>infinite material to work with>nah FUCK DRUMPF REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEThat's why nobody watches anymore.
>>20368836070s- good but dated since i wasnt born i dont know a lot of the references but im sure it was funny at the time, the less topical stuff is pretty funnyearly 80s- same, but a way less talented cast save for Eddie Murphy (and to a lesser extent Joe Piscopo) pretty much carrying the showlate 80s to early 90s - pretty much the golden era of the show with Hartman, Carvey, Lovitz, Hooks, Miller on Weekend Update all saving the show. and then into the early 90s it got even better when Sandler, Farley, and Spade guys all came inmid to late 90s- Will Ferrell years and Norm doing Weekend Update, probably the last great era, not as good as era before it with Hartman and Farley, but probably the next bestearly 2000s-kinda a step down but the Tina Fey Jimmy Fallon era of Weekend Update made the show feel freah for a whilemid to late 2000s- yeah Hader, Samberg, Wiig and Sudeikid def breathed new life into the show. and Samberg and his buddies definitely reinvented the show again with the digital shortseverything from 2010s to now- pretty much dogshit aside from Kyle Mooneys occasional brilliance which was usually sidelining for some annoying Kate McKinnon unfunnyness. Jost and Che's Weekend Updates have been the only saving graces for modern SNL and even theyre getting kinda tiresome at this point theyve been doing the segment over 10 years longer than anyone. Seems like every 5 years they should bring in someone new for that gig
>>203688011>most insane election in US history!!!I wasnt aware US history began in the 90s
>>203688571Seth will never get a man grill endorsement, and it's been the itch in his craw for years now
>>203688588they only had one black guy and he was the least used member of the cast. Loved Garrett Morris in The Stuff though
>>203688011it's an institution.I've watched almost all seasons in order and some are crap, like the Ebersol years or the late 90's, but when you got a good year, it's like nothing else on TV
>>2036881881995-1998 was abismal
>>203688750Nah those years were good, you had Norm doing Weekend Update, Will Ferrells sketches were outrageous (ppl forget he used to be funny cuz he sucks now), Cheri Oteri and Jim Breuer were also great as the wacky weirdos of the cast, hell even Chris Kattan was way funnier than hes given credit for, and Tracy Morgans crazy black guy shtick was always good for a laugh too
>>203688011>Fifty years of Lorne Michaels impressions>Make a movie and cast a kid who sounds nothing like him.
>>203688188>only about 5 of them were actually funny and that was in the 90s5 skits, you mean?
>>203688899I remember than it was sandwiched between two of great eras. Jim Breuer wasn't funny at all man.Oteri and Kattan didn't found their footing until two of three years after their debut.
>>203688899>Will Farrell used to be funnyYeah like the first time you see him. He does the same bit over and over.
>>203688935hes playing 70s Lorne, who didnt really talk in the more iconic Lorne voice yet when he was a younger man. the kid playing him does kinda resemble 30 year old Lorne from 1975https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xQP_Kdt2gE
>>203688061>weekend updateIt peaked with Norm and it has been a steady downward decline since Colin replaced him with his "your regular bar but with a different bartender" speech.
>>203688935young Lorne was way different
>>203689060It actually peaked with Dennis Miller. Norm is great but he’s weak in comparison.
>>203689003Breuer's Joe Pesci sketches used to make me laugh my ass offhttps://www.dailymotion.com/video/x57hupli like the one with him and Colin Quinn getting confronted by the real Pesci and DeNiro
>>203688351>first yearMurray was second year and he replaced Chase.
>>203689073Norm MillerChaseNealonSeth And Amyeveryone else
>>203689083Norm obliterates Miller.
>>203688186Hahahah Jesus fuck what’s wrong with you?
>>20368836090s70s80s>dog shit00s10s20s
Someone post the skit a couple months ago that was just girls bouncing their fat tits
>>203689083Dennis was way different.Norm had a more classic approach to comedy
>>203689101Maybe because I was watching them in order, I found that era specially weak compared to the other ones
>>203689154Norm was the best, but Miller was probably the first guy to make Weekend Update funny, before him the segment was dire (go back and watch the Charles Rocket, Brad Hall, Christopher Guest or Brian Doyle-Murray anchored seasons... woof!) Dennis was the first to make the segment more stand-up persona oriented, where everyone before that played it more straight in a faux newmans persona
>>203689187Apples and oranges, I agree, I just really enjoyed Miller’s rants. Love Norm too, just sayin’.
Miller and Victoria Jackson had an amazing chemistry
>>203689238Miller was so hip and cool.he really restarted the coolness of the desk
>>203689230This is very true, yes.
>>203689230i always found Kevin Nealons run on Weekend Update in the early 90s underrated, he kinda brought back the Chevy Chase style of saying silly things in a straight laced deadpan kinda way back. also helps that alot of the big iconic Weekend Update characters of the 90s were from Kevins era
>>203689331Nealon was the fucking man, also he's one the of the rare cases of a WU anchor was also brilliant in the sketches
>>203689264Vicky was so cute, their flirtatious chemistry was always charming, they shoulda married each other knowing they'd have similar politics years later lol
>>203688011SNL still being on the air in 2024 feels like your supermarket still having a post for people to tie their horse to.
>>203689362way underrated, him and Hartman always felt like the anchors of that era, Nealon was kinda like a sillier Hartman, he woulda been great in a Zucker Bros style comedy, he had that great knack for delivering ridiculous lines in a serious manner like Leslie Neilsenhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwbOwQFqLAYhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kHGoyMEXfshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOA7Jfcw8SUhe had a great sketch called “in and out, nobody gets hurt” i wish i could find, one of the best examples of his type of humor
>>203689386She was so fine, lads.what happened?
>>203689511apparently she doesnt have long left :(
>>203689506I mean the "subliminal man" was pure silliness
>>203689547it's kinda sad
>>203689511https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wAIQB2btAoi never realized just how hot she was until seeing her in this insane Rob Lowe as some bizarro world Arsenio parody where she played Linda Blair
>>203688011>>W-Were still relevant!!!meanwhile California will arrest anyone who posts a cheeky video of Kamala
>>203689555>what do ya say we got back to my place (hot sex) and we'll you know have a cup of coffee or something (hot sex) and get to know each other better (hot sex)lel still makes me laughhttps://www.reddit.com/r/LiveFromNewYork/comments/1c28n8l/the_debut_of_kevin_nealons_mr_subliminal/sorry for the reddit link only place i could find one of the non weekend update sketches
>>203688392>>203688501I'm so bored with this fat shabbos house nigger and the handful of low functioning retards who push him.
>>203689645the show is still relevant.if the internet was bigger back then, people would bitch about the same things
>>203689682>the show is still relevant.
>>203689587from that generation I preferred Julia
>>203689758based, she was especially hot as Pat!
Shane Gillis is saving SNL you retards.By 2030 the entire SNL cast is gonna be from the rogansphere
>>203689682Name one A-lister who got their start, or skit that everyone is talking about, or character that people look forward to seeing, that the show has launched in the past 10 years. Leslie Jones? Pete Davidson? They both had their 15 minutes.
>>203689833culture is way too fragmented now.even the viral sketches are only talked about a day or two.
Pick your favorite from the current cast
>>203689752>>203689758https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mppCyMmqtYshe kinda fine in non Pat roles, looked a bit like 80s actress Elizabeth McGovern
>>203689930Sarah i guess.
>>203689930that wacky jew sara squirm easily
>>203688011>nobody actually still watches this crapEven though it started in 1975 its the perfect show for the social media age since it consists of segments that can be cut up and posted on social media to watch on phones. The celebrity monologue, the news , the music guest performance and the sketches.
>>203689969https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l92C4IM9WWIyou think stavvy hit that?
>>203689930I can hear this pic
>>203689934even the normal girls were hotter in the 80's and 90's.I mean. look at Punkie
>>203689969shane had pretty good chemistry with her when he was on
>>203689992Stavy hit Rachel Sennot so I guess it's possible
>>203689331>>203689362>>203689506>>203689555Nealon rules, yes, one of the funniest guys to ever pass through SNL. >>203689547Sad. She was very beautiful and her stupid baby voice also made me diamonds.
>>203690007i wasnt attracted to Punkie until this sketch, now id def fuck that butch black lezbo knowing she was hiding tiddies like that all this timewhy she choose to look like this normally lol
>>203689985Which is even more curious how little cultural impact the show currently has. I guess when SNL first started it was rebellious because they were saying things that nobody at the time would dare. But now they’re the biggest Establishment shills. 90 minutes of DNC propapanda hosed at you. Obama even admitted he would veto skits that made him look bad.
>>203688351it's some lame birdman like real time movie on getting ready for the first episode
>>203688351SNL jumped the shark when they replaced based Chevy with redditfag Bill Murraywhy did Chevy quit after season 1 anyway? did he think he was too big for the show after being the shows star after the first season?
>>203690059most masc lesbians have incredible life changing tits
>>203688011Imagine how I feel when people are amused by an 80 year old man in orange make up.
>>203690139he was too big for the show in a way.
>>203688011>tranny and nog are the face of SNL nowGrim
>>203688351>look how badass we are I hate theater kids
>>203688351Bill Murray FUCKED
>>203690224they were badasses in that current tv landscape
It was so close to being dead before 2008 its really too bad
>>203690460I mean SNL had several near cancellations, one of the most famous one was in season 11.The jump in quality between those season is astronomical
>>203690139>did he think he was too big for the show after being the shows star after the first season?Yes, he wanted to be in movies, plus i remember and interview where he said he wanted to move to LA for a woman lol.
>>203690517>season 11was that the bizarre season with Randy Quaid, Joan Cusack, and Robert Downey Jr and Anthony Michael Hall in the cast? i think that was the first year Lorne came back and he thought casting young hip actors would save the show, forgetting these people were regular actors not sketch comedians
>>203690607Truly a terrible season, and it was followed by one of the best ones.
>>203690607why does Downey Jr have one black arm??
>>203690637yeah Lorne cleaned house immediately (only keeping Lovitz and Nora Dunn) and ended up with the tightest cast the show ever had. they opened the following season with this in reference to the previous terrible seasonhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_R2EzfUeiM
>>203690607the season was horrible but the joke at the end with the studio fire was pretty well executed
>>203690721I'm watching that season right now and it was night and day with season 11
>>203690759lel the part with Lorne running in and saving Lovitz (the only one that whole season who got any laughs) and telling him to wait in the limo was the biggest laugh of that whole seasonhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_iWQxt8uRyMthis was the quality of fine work Downey and Hall were doing that year lmap
>>203688270> nobody watches this boomer slop any more!!!Top show in the Demo. Nuff said.
>>203690828they felt so out of place here
>>203688392Lornes definitely pissed NBC made them fire Shane lol esp with how popular he is now
>>203690607> Terry Sweeny didn't die of the AIDS.Just amazing.
>>203690895Lorne in a way it's like Vince McMahon, he knows who works and who doesn't.the difference is that Lorne keeps updated about the different trends in show business
>>203690942he was funny as Nancy Reagan, and that was about it
>>203690851Yeah but it's still only 1.1 That's shit
>>203689331This era of SL was the absolute peak. Almost everything they did was successful, from Weekend Update to the sketches.
>>203691035aren't most tv ratings in the fucking crapper compared to the past.I mean a normal WWE Raw show got like 5 millions, now they fight for getting a Milly
>>203691035Can't be better than first. That's why the show keeps getting renewed.
>>203691071You are confused by the DEMO rating and total number of viewers.
>>203690721>>203690787Where's the best place to watch old seasons?Still archive.org?I do like that you get old commercials on there occasionally but the quality is definitely shit.
>>203688011somehow it was funny 40+ years ago, furthered the careers of several good comedic actors in the 80s and then became lame cheesy unfunny poo after that.don't know who watches it or who it is made for, but none of it is funny, and hasn't been for a long time.are there ten million 30 iq Americans that tune in every week and keep it going?
>>203688135Didn't hear about them embarrassing themselves over "Comey gunna get Trump"? Not a good cultural moment, but certainly memorable. Then a few weeks later Comey was a bad guy.
>>203691134maybe, it' not from the USwhat's the difference?
>>203691152I got it from a torrent years ago.
>>203688448because at the time it wasn't a porn 'stache. it was just a 'stache
>>203691152there was a torrent in here with everything between season 1-45, some of the older shows are from the Comedy Central reruns, but some of the key shows are uncensored
>>203690942isnt that the gay guy Chevy pitched a sketch to when he came back to host where Terry has AIDS and they weigh him every week to see how much weight he keeps losing lmao
>>203691286the same. Chevy was being Chevyeven in his old age he's a massive asshole
>>203691261>>203691280Fuck
>>203691152Fmovies also had them all before they got shut down but probably all the knockoffs of Fmovies have them still, they seem to be the same source as the archive.org ones judging by the old vhs style picture quality. def the only places to see the full episodes, the Peacock ones are edited down to shit, removing anything with copyright music rights or sketches that are problematic today
>>203691325I'm missing the covid season, but otherwise I have everything archived
>>203691327Yeah the Peacock ones are fucking abysmal, it's an absolute fucking disgrace
>>203691325I got it from /t/, so maybe lurk there for a while
>>203691286Chevy was such a hilarious prick behind the scenes
>>203688011>SNL IS LE BAD PEOPLE ACTUALLY LE WATCH THIS? >70s snlfag ranting as usual about how caveman era SNL was the bestTerrible thread as expected.
>>203691381https://youtu.be/EIcTvygs4lw?si=tt-FM45vHgzw0urZimagine being this dense in your old age
>>203691520you have to watch the earlier season as almost an historical object.comedy sensitivities have really changed in half a century.
>>203691520Most people in here are saying the 90s were the peak so not sure what you mean. Also ironic that you'd post one of the 90s writers to try and make a point about how modern SNL holds up (i can only assume that's your point, otherwise you don't have one)
>>203692059>Most people in here are saying the 90s were the peak so not sure what you mean.I said 70s snlfag was doing his usual routine. I didn't say anything about most people. >Also ironic that you'd post one of the 90s writers to try and make a pointIt was a random webm. This thread is terrible and your reply is a great example. Can't wait for real SNL threads to start again in 1 week.
>>203692376I thought it was a pretty decent thread myself but I don't post on /tv/ regularly so I can't recognize recurring posters and other schizo goobledygook.
>>203690851Do you actually watch this show?
>>203688135Pretty much. The only person after Andy Sandburg who made any cultural waves was the lesbian girl who played Hillary and the fat black dyke who was also in the FemGhostbusters.
>>203692416me too, this is a very civil thread, like we oldfags use to have way back
>>203692719Hader was pretty successful in Barry
>>203692812Hader predates everyone he mentioned, doesn't he? Pretty sure he was on the show before Sandburg
>>203692928Hader and Samberg both joined at the same time (2005)
>>203692928>>203693221Yep, Hader and Samberg literally started the same episodehttps://www.tiktok.com/@huggyattack/video/7338292846216236319?lang=enThis was their debut immediately establishing their personalities on the show with Hader as the impressionist and Samberg as the idiot goofball
SNL died for me when they got rid of Saturday TV Funhouse, they should have just made that into its own sketch series on Comedy Central or something.I know they have the “Best Of” available on DVD, but is there a collection of every single one of their sketches available? The X-Presidents still crack me up hard.
>>203693406Why did Smigel stop doing these? They were so damn good, even loved the Comedy Central spin-off that didn’t last very long
>>203693406Mediaopoly was censored after ir aired, but you can watch it online I think
What is your favorite intro, bros?
>>203693948Probably the early 90s one, I just watched those to death as a kid because they were always being replayed on Comedy Central
>>203693406>Saturday TV Funhouse, they should have just made that into its own sketch series on Comedy CentralAnon -- they did. The cartoons with a Pee-Wee's Playhouse wrap. Back in the aughts.
>>203693493The ratings were ass and because of the production schedule lost any topicality some of the SNL toons had.
>>203693948Early 90d circle logo was best logo
Powerhouse opening roster.
>>203694938Will only watch the Nate one.
>>203694373Digital shorts took their place
>>203694938The fuckis a Jelly Roll
Celebrity Jeopardy was the only funny SNL skit ever. But holy shit was it goddamned funny as hell.
>>203695729For me, it's Massive Headwound Harry
>>203695729This a coworkers take
>>203695439This fat fuck.
>>203695933Man. You guys make anyone famous.Remember Bubba Sparx
>>203688061Not an american but my perception of SNL is the best bits of weekend update cherrypicked out for youtube shorts, I get some decent laughs, but man i've also noticed comedy goes right out the window when it comes to abortion and the seethe really shines through
>>203696323Why?
>>203691237Demo is the Demographic that advertisers want the most(18-35 year olds basically), they have the lowest impulse control and most disposable income.
>>203696794Got it
This show is like condensed anti-humor. Just godawful. The fact it's been on so long should make Americans ashamed
>>203689663cool blog post xer, where can we read more of your striking commentary?
the only good season was the one with randy quaid and danitra vance
>>203688011it was the original hollywood ritualif you wanted to be "famous", you just "had" to host SNL episodeThis applies to musicians as well. If you wanted to be "famous", you just had to play on SNLYou can see from history of other episodes, what others they were shilling, what musicians they were shilling at any given time.All created by a jew who was born in Mandatory Palestine. Yes, that's not a joke. Look it up.
>>203688547no, wasn't even watchable again until like 89, and then it was good until 94, you're way out of like with that 86 shit
>>203694938is Nate Bargatze funny? seems kinda bland from what ive seen, id rather see someone like Normand or List who are way funnier if theyre gonna get a relatively lesser known (lesser known by SNL/network tv/the normie crowd standards) stand-up to host
>>203699546I'm currently watching season 12 and it's great
>>203699557He's fine
>>203699546farley wasn't funny
>>203699648Yes he wasYou're just being a contrarian online
>>203699215based, for me its the Charles Rocket Gilbert Gottfried season, who were instantly hated because it was the first time SNL had to replace the beloved original cast with a group of nobodies. i actually dont mind the season, dont find it as terrible as ive always heard it was, its more artsy and going for weird over funny than most SNL seasons. Charles Rocket was pretty good on the show too, and was always good playing a prick in different movies over the years. also its kinda cool hearing Gilberts real voice before he was known for the famous yelling voice he always talked in in everything else hes done ever sincehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8CZ7d3qVn_Uhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLGs1hUOZfg
>>203699546Disagree, the late 80s had a lot of good stuff going for it, just wasn't the perfect gumbo that 89-94 was
>>20369954686-89 was the Hartman, Carvey, Lovitz years. that era is gold. only diff is Sandler Spade Rock and Farley werent there yet
>>203699686he was a (much) funnier version of Bert Kreicher but he wasn't close to Norm or Hartman or anyone desu
>>203699726i didnt know that short blonde porty woman from Dream On was an SNL cast member in the 80s, i think she also played Roseanne Barr in a TV movie in the 90s, i have a vauge memory of her being on Leno promoting it and saying Roseanne was furious about the movie being made
>>203699786>Hartman, Carvey, Lovitzthey were all there in 86? If so I take it back, all I remember is I stopped watching the show at some point in the 80s and didn't really start again until I happened to catch a funny skit about a church lady years later, then a few years later when they had Farley and Sandler and Spade and all that I even started taping them for a couple of seasons (like 92 and 93)
>>203699871Dumbass kept talking shit without even knowing what he was talking about. Many such cases.
>>203699906shut it, zoomer faggot
>>203699786Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer, The Pathological Liarthose were good years
Why do people forget about Mike Myers? Sure, he's a massive faggot now but he had a really good run on SNLRarely see him mentioned though even though he was part of some of the best casts and years the show ever had
>>203699871Lovitz and Miller and Dunn were actually there in 85 they were part of the troubled season with Quaid and Downey Jr as seen above>>203690607before Lorne cleaned house and got just kept Lovitz and Dunn, with Miller on Weekend Update. very first episode with the new cast had Dana Carvey doing Church Lady and Choppin Broccoli, it was obvious from one episode in those guys were gonna save SNL, this was the first sketch of the night with the brand new Hartman, Carvey and Hookshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUMV1xq31rwthey seemed like seasoned pros right outta the gate, compare that to most new cast members now who seem like ppl whove never been on tv before, green as hell, usually takes a season or two for them to get good, if they ever do
>>203700020Carvey some early signs of Garth in there as that character
>>203700047Carvey was astar on day one
>>203688011https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_36z3Hk7wl4i miss when SNL was allowed to do WHITE GUYS DOING SILLY FOREIGN ACCENT skits
>>203699726That season was grim
>>203700259"sony guts" has never left my vernacular because of this sketch
86 had an all white castSomething like this would be impossible to pull now
>>203700259Part of this was reused in Zohan, right?
>>203700259is that a young Robert Smigel as the announcer?
>>203700325yeah they def reused the sony guts line in zohan, i think smigel and sandler wrote that movie, the same writers as this sketch most likely
>>203700293also that season where they brought in some recognizable names to replace Eddie and Piscopo like Billy Crystal, Christopher Guest and Martin Short. but that was just one season. its kinda crazy they went from 1986 to 1990 with no blacks, wasnt until Chris Rock joined in 1990 they finally had a black in the cast again, then Ellen Cleghorne and Tim Meadows the following year I think
>>203700293>>203700441theyre definitely overcorrecting in recent years for their past history of having either no blacks or just one black in the cast. now half the damn cast is black. if you count the latinos and asians, i think theres more non-whites than whites on modern snl
>>203700494non-whites: 7whites: 10nope, whites still win!
>>203700363https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myCcQN5of_Ehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zu28KvV92she was mostly a writer but did appear in sketches once in a while, was part of the "DA BEARS!" skits. him, Conan and Bob Odenkirk were the part of the reason that era of SNL was so good, being the writers behind a lot of the best skits back
>>203688102100%. I don't think they have any great live performers anymore, and they've increasingly relied on pre-tapes. Last time I watched was for Dakota Johnson hosting in January and the live sketches were garbage but 2 pre-tapes (the please don't destroy roast and the you are not the father Maury home movie) were excellent.
>>203700711Smigel was great on those bit roles
>>203700773https://youtu.be/eQvVxY20yOY?si=XGE6jd84AgCCs4n8&t=170one of my favorite bit roles from him on SNL was as the Penguin at Supermans Funeral
>>203700767Because of the tradition of the live show
>>203700441Harry Shearer of Spinal Top and The Simpsons, Elaine Benis, and Rich Hall, creator of Sniglets at the top too. that was a cool season of SNL
>>203699955Because he actually was a mixed bag. He started strong in 89-91 but he hung around way too long. 93-95 he is absolute junk, you can see how comparatively smart it was of Carvey to leave in early 93 once Bush Sr lost. Most of Myers sketches weren't good with the rest of the cast, and he was always an asshole and difficult to work with too.Hartman and Carvey were fantastic leads for the show, and Lovitz/Nealon were great at backing them up. Myers is talented and a nice shot in the arm as a feature in 89 but as he took over more and more of the show it upset the equilibrium.
>>203688011>most insaneEh even with two shootings this is pretty boring compared to 2016
>>203700957The scripts were weak as hell
>>203700980he was probably my least favorite of all those guys back then. never liked Coffee Talk which it seemed like was in every episode, and Garth was always the funny one in Waynes World
>>203700980He overstayed his welcome
>>203701042only good thing Mike Myers ever made
>>203701042Sprockets was his best recurring sketchs
>>203701042I liked shit like Lothar of the Hill People and Sprockets quite a bit myself
>>203701072Underated film
>>203700441https://streamable.com/52bwvrthe opening credits to this season were insane and maybe my favorite SNL opening creditsever?
>>203701083oh yeah, Sprockets was definitely his best, they almost made a Sprockets movie, had a script written and everything then it never happened, too bad.https://www.tiktok.com/@huggyattack/video/7256570863531658538?lang=enthe one with Ben Stiller making his SNL debut as Eddie Munster was great, think this was the first Sprockets, Mike and Ben started as new featured players at the same time in 1989, only Stiller quit after like 6 or 7 episodes over creative differences or some shit like that
>>203688307This made boomers piss and shit their pants with laughter
>>203701191Garofalo also quit and they end up working together
>>203701262lel yea wasnt she badmouthing SNL in the press constantly the whole time she was therehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vEEqjnl3Z1Ihttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJfPVdGbszManother weird SNL season with Chris Elliott was there too for some reason, i liked this sketch where he just keeps getting kicked in the nutsand they had her and Chuck McGill playing the Clintons now that Phil Hartman was gone
I fucking hate Kenan. The guy's so bad that his gimmick became "he plays one character lol."
>>203701416its kinda pathetic that hes still there after 21 seaons with no signs of leaving, someone give this man a sitcom or something so he can leave
>>203701435They already tried that I thinkmultiple times even
half a century of shit
>>203701416He has like 6
>>203701405She wasn't made for that style of comedy
>>203689101Goddamn, I wish Comedy Central was still airing old SNL reruns.
>>203701555Oh yes, of course, who could forget Kenan, Kenan with a mustache, Kenan but bald, Kenan as an old man, Kenan with a hat, and Kenan with a Hawaiian shirt.
>>203688188how would you know unless you watched them?
>>203701736Same, used to be the easiest way to see all those 80s and 90s episodes on the reg. Those and Kids in the Hall reruns on 90% of the time you’d turn on Comedy Central was a comfy time for that channel
>>203688608>Garrett Morris could've played Nixon and no one would carethat would have been great
>>203699726>light flurries of rapesurprised they even uploaded it.funny to hear gilbert sounding normal
>>203688353they have a mcchicken sauce? i thought it was just big mac sauce, I typically eat the Mcdoubles which doesnt have it so im barely familiar with the sauce, their fries and nugs are great if fresh but it can be rare
>>203699924>ZoomerI'm 31.
>>203688102The live sketches are pretty funny when they start corpsing, but otherwise they're just as awful as every other skit on SNL.
ITT Trumpettes maulding at SNL because they made fun of their (parasocial) orange boyfriend.
>>203688448>why did men in show business have moustaches when moustaches were fashionable?we will never know...
>>203701483It's more like 35 years of shit and 15 years of having 1-2 good sketches per episode

Nobody cares about election shit anymore

>1990s best SNL years >Most conservative castWhat does this mean
>>203688307>>203701198i forgot to make the weekly thread on that sorry
>>203689331only reason i can stomach weeds
>>203704043Rightwingers are funnier than pussy libs
>>203704043>>203704352SNL was always a chud show for bros until around the time they hired Kate McKinnon and it become the yaaas qween girl power hour, show has seemed to skew more to female humor ever since Tina Fey Amy Poehlrr era honestly where the woman suddenly became more popular the the men cast members for the most part, whereas in the past the dudes ruled the show and nobody cares about the women
>>203703520This is slightly off year wise, Sandler and Farley crew were all gone by 1995 when the Will Ferrell crew came in
>>203688157this anon knows.
1992 election was SNL’s best election season. Big year for Carvey with him playing both Bush and Perothttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbCFNS8NZTERunner up favorite was the 96 election with Norm’s hilarious Bob Dole sketches
>>203694938>stevie nicksher aborted ghosts will be in the audience cheering mommy on
>>203701072anyone that didnt experience the nineties can pop this movie on and hear "there she goes" exactly like it was being heard back then
>>203704492Lel they made Spade dress up as the Perot body double for the non close up shots, he’s still bitter about this whenever it gets brought up on the SNL themed interview podcast him and Dana Carvey have been doing for the last few years
>>203704492I used to rent a lot of those SNL star maker vhs tapes at blockbuster as a kid, was kinda how I first remember discovering SNL and it’s earlier sketches in the pre internet days
>>203688157The last 3 seasons have been some of the best ever.
>>20368836090s2020s80s70s2010s2000s
>>203705296Obvious bait
>>203701111That's really cool. So of the times
>>203688693>Larry Cohen
Only in muttland do you see faggot politics being inserted even into scientific and entertainment publications. why are you fucks so obsessed with politics?
>>203706066Lol faggots were running Europe 40 years ago.
>>203706480Europe has been ruled by america since 1945.
>>203706513>America conquered the ENTIRETY OF EUROPE without invading or even firing a single bulletWow. They're THAT powerful???
>>203705572Yeah, but Cohen was one of those psycho Jews like Lloyd Kaufman who used his Jewiness in favorite of something actually kind of interesting instead of just robbing people. I could watch Michael Moriarty's scenes in Q on a loop forever.
>>203706546Uh, did you forget that little thing called World War II?
>>203700494Ew. Why in the fuck would anyone watch this cast?
>>203688307>>203701198
>>203689930For me it was Cheri Oteri from the 90s
>>203706678I really don't get it.
>>203706678>>203707209its just a funny little song about King Tut it's not that complicated. A cow tools level overreaction to *gasp* a white man making a joke
>>203707209You need at least a masters in Egyptology and a good familiarity with archeology to understand his thesis. I'm not surprised it went over your head, it did for most people, like the LadiesofReddit twatter person.
>>203688270The longevity is from adrenochrome and never having to work a day in their lives
Genuinely believe the boys should have pitched a skit show competitor to SNL to adult swim rather than TAFS. Nick is probably the best skit/bit writer in comedy today.
>>203704393Yep, it was literally dudes high as fuck on a dump truck worth of coke rocking.That said MadTV and WKUK were still way better skit comedy shows.
>>203688011Metropolitan leftist establishment circle-jerks have almost unlimited opportunities for profit because they reflect the views of the elite.SNL never needs to compete with anyone because they will always receive as much funding as they need to go on.
>>203706678This is true for majority of comedy
>>203707209Isn't the joke just Steve Martin making fun of all the commercialism of king tut being discovered or whatever?
>>203688011Simple:(((Lorne Michaels)))
>>203688340>i made my entire career out of acting like a retard and doing what was offensive for the time, now i will not do those things and by me saying i wont do them i have effectively stood up against anyone doing itmake my money, pull up the ladder
