How does this stuff get past the review process before it's allowed to go on the air?
It's painfully UNfunny and the sketches go from embarrassingly bad to just plain pathetic.
It only comes on in our house by accident as I'm flicking through the channels but even a fleeting look sets it off to the next channel almost automatically. You simply can't watch it.
As I've said before, New York/ American humor has a nasty streak to it but it also has some brilliant comedy like Seinfeld , Curb your enthusiasm and Cheers.
These were clever satires and had quite intelligent scripts to keep you amused but these SNL skits are just shallow insults to politicians and society,
No amount of script doctoring can fix this thing and only very rarely does a musical act make it worth watching.
Do us all a favor and give it a decent burial wontcha?
