Saturday Night Live

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.

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.

Oh ok. I don’t use TikTok either but it was easy to google search /view it on a pc browser

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.

I didn’t know about this. Thanks for mentioning it.

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.

ha my wife and I both commented on this while watching as well. it doesn’t even look like plastic surgery… or is it just the rare case of good plastic surgery? anyway, she’s a different person.

Pretty underwhelming episode, though I bailed after Update. I’ll catch the back half today.

That's what YouTube is for.

Wake up on Sunday, watch the cold open and the parts of weekend update without guests. don't think about SNL for another week.

So why not have Dylan himself in SNL ?
Rather than sham a prick a ding dong?
Cos they’re cunts that’s why. And they’re about as funny as cancer so he avoids it.

Dylan has only been on SNL one time ever

Dylan's one appearance as the musical guest on “Saturday Night Live” came on Oct. 20, 1979, when he was in his Christian phase and performed three songs from his album “Slow Train Coming”: “Gotta Serve Somebody,” “I Believe in You” and “When You Gonna Wake Up.”
