What the hell happened to SNL? Tried watching it tonight, and it's so bad.

[northernlights7]

I always remember thinking SNL was so funny back in the 90's when guys like Adam Sandler (when he was actually still funny), Chris Farley, etc. were on it. Saw some tonight, and wasn't amused at all. Who the hell is still watching this crap on a regular basis?

Liberalism/wokeism

Yeah turned to absolute garbage once all the good actors left or died. I think Jimmy Fallon was the last remotely funny guy on there. When he left it was over.

[OptimusTrajan]

It has always been bad. Madtv back in the day was better.

[northernlights7]

Right now it's a parody of Jake from State Farm commercials with the theme being that Jake from State Farm is a black man who has stepped into a white family's life, started boinking the white guy's wife, stole the white guy's whole family and house, and destroyed his entire life. Then the white guy gets hammered and goes to jump off of a bridge to kill himself because of his wife cucking him with black Jake from State Farm until a couple cops show up to "talk him out of it" by doing a brief parody of those shiiiitty Liberty Mutual ads.

What in the actual fukkkkk? How is that supposed to be a humorous sketch concept? This show is worse than bad; it's a dumpster fire filled with buffalo shiiiit on a 100' F, humid summer day.

[northernlights7]

Now they end the show with a song performance by some retarded mumble rapper who uses as much autotune as fukkkkking Daft Punk.

Holy balls. Never wasting my time on this bullchit again. Can't say I didn't give a try lol

SNL had been bad since the 80s. There was a brief time where they had a few good skits in the 90s, but all the talent left for movies.

the cork soakers bit was the series finale for SNL in my opinion.

Anything after that is fake.

The show has not been funny or generated new comedians since the 90s.

In the 90s, there were always people becoming movie stars from SNL. Also, the cast created many funny and unique characters that would be talked about all of the time by everyone. People would say the character catchphrase, etc.

Since then, that is not really a thing and the show is almost never funny, at all, and it's not creating celebrities.

I find it puzzling because how can there not be new comedians?

It’s always been awful

Been bad for a long time, but I laughed at this one.

It’s only ever good when “controversial” comedians (aka those who committed the crime of doing their jobs well) open. Otherwise, it’s just a horrible fusion of dad jokes, politics, and overtly sexual shock humor from notably unattractive women.

[frankdtank20]

It was good in the late 80s to mid 90s, a steaming pile of diarrhea since around 2000. Will Ferrell was great but he started phoning it in after he started getting movies.

Shane Gillis could have saved it but they cancelled him for saying chink on a podcast

No Norm Macdonald, no care

Best thing that could've happened to him in the end. His standup is really good, so everybody but SNL wins.

The only good thing they done in years is the one bit a year where the news guys write each other's jokes to get them to make racist jokes.

Liberals and Jews don’t feel the need to hide their hatred of Europeans anymore

In the 90s they had a skit about how GE and other corporations were poisoning everyone

[whogotmuhbeers]

It’s kinda like what happened to night shows I used to like watching Leno and O’Brien then it went to jimmy fallon and that far ugly dude from the man show.

Wokeism is spreading like a cancer.

Liberals happened

SNL was staffed by coked out perverts and hippies since it began.

It was never conservative by any stretch of the imagination.

[MEDITATE]

it was never good

[iamanalphamale]

Whats an SNL?

Liberals and hippies used to be heavily anti corporation
Now they are massive corporate cucks and openly anti European/ civilisation

Here’s the SNL skit from the 90s. With todays corporate bootlickers this would never see the light of day

Fuark I wanted to plow this madtv sloot hard AF back in the 90's.

[TulsiAdmirer]

just not that funny

comedy is dead because everything is super srs now

I actually blame nazis and not wokes. Ppl thought we were over nazis, but we aren't.

[lightsarefallin]

Same thing, OP. Last time I saw SNL was in the 90s as you mentioned. I don't really want to imagine how it is now in 2023.

I'll just be in my van down by the river

Oops!

You win the argument!

That is an excellent point and I agree.
