Old people who think bad impressions are funny

Charli has been essentially a character actor in pop music for awhile and finally getting her due. Feel like a lot of people would be like “oh that was HER on that song?” If they went through the list

I just listened to a few songs and wasn't familiar with any of them. Do people listen to this type of auto-tuned dance music outside of clubs?

I want to add that I am aware of how old I sound and I'm fine with it.

Charli had one of the greatest runs in pop history like 10 years ago, IMO. I haven't been able to connect with her last few albums mostly because, ironically, I think they sound a bit behind the times - I feel she has stagnated sonically. But, rest assured, tons of people listen to her music, Tommy; she's deeply beloved and is playing arenas on her current headlining tour.

Nah, they're definitely angling younger the last couple seasons.

The American Midwest.

SNL has always targeted like 14-35.

I don't think young people even watch network TV anymore.

Why is that link not linking?

That's why SNL is more focused on YT and Tiktok these days.

no one under like 55 watches TV anymore

This is what my 15 year old niece said - "I've definitely heard of it but I don't think many people of my age watch it, so I think you're right on it being an old people show"

Anecdotal as an elder millennial, but I feel like we might’ve been the last ones who had parents that thought watching SNL was important.

Paul Mescal hosts this week but they have two great ones to close ‘24: Chris Rock on the 14th and Martin Short on the 21st.
