Saturday Night Live

[epilogue]

I wanna go to the Chalamet taping just to see if he does Tiny Horse as Dylan...

I'm so sick of this "Chalamet covers Dylan" thing and it hasn't even launched yet

Sure, but Tiny Horse!

I happened to flip on the tv tonight, channel guide told me Chappelle was on SNL. Fuck yes.

Never heard of Glorilla until tonight and while I’m sure SNL has had worse musical guests in its 50 years on the air, I’m struggling to think of who that was. Give me those few minutes back.

[Matters]

How many more years do you think this show will still be talked about?

[spike]

First two eps of SNL 50: Beyond Saturday Night down. First ep is fun to watch past stars watch their auditions, and the second ep covering a week with the writing staff was super interesting.

[Anders]

Twenty.

That’s why I start the show late and fast forward through commercials and the musical guest. I don’t like rap to begin with but wow that seemed below average for rap.

I laughed out loud early in Chapelle's monologue, but got bored during the Diddy jokes and moved on to Weekend Update.

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

[Anders]

One thing that is strange is that we’ve never had SNL on tv here. We’ve got s hundred channels, all the movies, all the sport, all the talk shows, but never has a channel shown SNL.

I only watched the monologue. It was so much better than fine. A+, and not a trans joke in sight, thank God. Biggest laugh for me was when he pantomimed slowly masturbating while looking disapprovingly across the room. The final 2 minutes were very moving, I thought.

[dad]

Evacuation skit was hilarious.

Only Dave Chappelle can get away with the cigarette smoking and the jerking off mimicking.
Solid episode overall for me.
1. Monologue
2. Weekend Update
3. Evacuation Alert
4. Immigrant Dad

[spike]

When are the Kneecap guys going to host?

Finally listened to the Jim Downey episode of Fly on the Wall, maybe my favorite episode. So much BTS stuff that I’ve not seen covered elsewhere.

I could listen to Downey (and Smigel) talk SNL all day long, although I'm not 100% certain I'd choose Carvey and Spade as the interviewers.

One thing that is strange is that we’ve never had SNL on tv here. We’ve got s hundred channels, all the movies, all the sport, all the talk shows, but never has a channel shown SNL.

I think it has to do with music licensing, which has been a constant challenge for them in the streaming era. Both performances and skits that rely on licensed music are problematic for international markets; a lot of time the original song in a skit will get changed for streaming or syndication.

Bugs me that I can't see the Your Love / Josh Hutcherson sketch on YT because of licensing issues.

I'd add Martin Short to the list of exclusions.

Lol, I didn't even know about this sketch. Plus I love "Your Love". It's on tiktok

Yeah that's where I typically find it but I don't use Tiktok so I have to sit through all of that platform's desperate pleas to sign up before I can watch it.
