Re: Saturday Night Live
I would expect the Eddie Murphy episode would get SNL's highest rating in years. I know I had a "wow" moment when I read the news.

Re: Saturday Night Live
Youre not wrong on any account but im leaning more towards"cancel culture has run amok"tragabigzanda wrote:on the one hand, comedians should be able to say anything
on the other, Gilli's jokes weren't at all funny and smell like mean-spirited isms without any depth
on another hand, cancel culture has run amok
on another hand, Lorne Michaels booked Trump to host and he gets to keep his job
my mind spins in circles. it'll probably land on some combination of "the free market at work dictates the show can hire any number of talented comedians who haven't takes gross shots at minorities."
Could you imagine if we ran Eddie Murphy off stage for some of his comments?
