For years I have wondered why I bother to watch this show, its terrible liberal slant, but mostly its just not funny. I usually wind up fast forwarding to the news segment, which can be funny, if still liberal, and then not watching anything after that.

But after the Kanye pro Trump speech last week, this week they did a segment in the news with Pete Davidson. He proceeded to apologize basically for anyone having to hear that, how horrible it was for Kanye to say what he felt, and how terrible it was that the viewers delicate ears had to hear something pro-Trump.

Then he started off on how someone like Kanye should keep his mouth shut about politics. Now I don't give a shit about Kanye either way. However, the hypocrisy of hearing this drug addled douchebag lecture anyone on why they shouldn't be able to speak was too much. Fuck these assholes. I hit delete and cancelled the series recording. I am finally done with this turd of a show. Like I said, should have done it years ago, but this was just too damn much.

I used to watch them faihfully. Years ago.
Now I watch the replays of Waters, Gutfeld, and Pirro around that time slot.

Too bad. Some of the SNL players are quite talented. But the material they do now is not funny. Stupid is not funny. And political, liberal, is disgusting.

I gave up in utter disgust mid-2017 when it became the "Shit On Trump Show".

If they think this show is going to survive on smearing the Trump administration in 80% of the sketches, they are dead wrong.

Davidson is an idiot. He's mentally ill (facially he looks it), having admitted as much, enjoys his pot way too much and now that he's engaged to that strumpet that got felt-up by a paster at Aretha Franklin's memorial, thinks he's all-that and a bag of chips. The SNL bridge was bombed long time ago, this is par for the course for them.

I haven't watched it since Mr. Robinson's Neighborhood last played.

"Kill, kill, kill the landlord"

They have their moments. The Tom Brady "how to avoid workplace sexual harassment" was pure gold. but I cant stomach an actual show anymore. just too much stupid.

What took you so long?

^^^^^^^
Yeah! I quit watching SNL about 1980.

Even Chevy Chase was hard to take.

Just another example of "Whitesplaining"

Pete, you ignorant misguided cuck. Who did you sleep with to get your job anyway.

I stopped watching when they went full on TDS.

I bet this clown still loves his Hillary tattoo What a fool.

This season was the end for me. At one time they made a half-assed effort to be balanced. No more.

I guess I really quit watching at the exact moment I got a car in 1979.

late 70's, sucked. 80's, sucked. 90's, couldn't take the suck anymore.

I will say that in 82 or 83 I was in Chicago and went to the 2nd city club. 3 guy's & 1 girl. No props except a couple of chairs. Best live show of any kind I've ever seen. The level of talent was off the charts.

There were pictures of past performers all over the walls. A veritable who's who of SNL stars. My dad told me that 2nd city was kind of a launching pad to SNL. I remember wondering how people that came through there suddenly became unfunny...

I don't give a shit about their politics. Besides, it's based in NYC, what else do you expect?

It's still plenty funny most of the time, and always has been, through each and every cast.

My sense of humor is plenty flexible, thanks. I can and do laugh at just about any subject.

I enjoyed the bit about the Alexa for senior citizens, that responds to any name similar to Alexa. Don't know any of their names but the black guy cracks me up. He always has a twinkle in his eye like he knows the next funny line is right around the corner.

I honestly cannot recall the last time I watched SNL, probably sporadically in the 80's when they went through the "good cast/bad cast" volley but had a few bright moments

And now Davidson's on the news complaining that he's being "bullied" online.

After the shit he's said and "he's being bullied"

I really can't understand how you can be so detached from reality .......what an asshole.

Whiny little asshole.

agreed

SNL has ALWAYS been hit-or-miss

one skit would be great followed by two bad ones... but there were some real gems in there

now though - this going back like 15 years - it is just unwatchable
