They have their moments when they aren't political.

So, they have had a successful show for 50 years.

It was ok. The bit about the tie was funny and the guy doing Trump does it pretty well.

I tried, but it's unwatchable.

Nothing more than the same propaganda disguised as humor we have seen for years.

There were a few halfhearted smiles. No out loud chuckles or laughs.

The Elon take was so-so, but Myers did a soft british accent.

The Vance take was just flat out awful and nowhere close to reality, which took away from the humor.

And there was a time when SNL would do political parodies without making it a full-on lambasting of the policies they clearly disagree with. Lampoon the person (either R or D) and I'll laugh. But using mediocre humor to mask their personal political commentary is a turn off. I want to watch SNL to escape political lecturing, not bask in it.

Mike Myers does a way better Elon Musk than Dana Carvey.

Looks like TA Republicans need to get a sense of humor.

Sure, SNL targets Trump and gives Biden a pass, but this skit was pretty good. Myers got the Musk speech pattern down pat too.

Learn to laugh a little. Not everything is a conspiracy.


I have a sense of humor. I thought the Dave Chappell 2016 Election Day skit was hilarious as well as the first Black Jeopardy with Tom Hanks as a contestant. I'll go back and rewatch those any day. This just wasn't funny. Sometimes they just fall flat due to desperation. This felt like one of those times.

I have a sense of humor. I even thought a black guy was funny once 9 years ago.


Holy crap…has it been nine years? I'm so old.

It was ok. They had 24 hours to come up with it and probably scrapped what was planned so was t expecting much. I just really dislike the Asian dude and whatever he's in. He's over the top gay theater kid

No, I don't care what CNN or MSNBC said this time

Elections are when people find out what politicians stand for, and politicians find out what people will fall for.

I watch the show sporadically. If a skit is really funny, it is usually referenced multiple times on internet.
My reaction to this one is... Meh, writers could have used a couple of more days.

I prefer to go by Conservative because half of the republicans in office are part of the establishment that has been stealing from us for years.

Haha.

I just thought he sounded just like Austin Powers, with Dr Evil movements.

Made it to the "it's going to be a great trap" and knew it would be garbage at that point

typical MSM....all-in on the take. America has been duped.

Not funny.

SNL takes all the liberal talking points derived from all the gaslighting, and then makes "satire" from that point of view. This is why they miss so often. It's also why they fail at any "satire" aimed at the left. MSNBC and CNN gaslight in a completely positive spin around that side, so there's nothing for them to mock.

There's a reason why I laugh my ass off watching Shane Gillis do his Trump impersonations and can barely stand to watch the SNL trash, these days.

There was a time, you know. When SNL actually succeeded at political humor:

Still can't believe that little weasel Zelenskyy had the gall to try litigate the case against trusting Russia as an honest negotiator in front of the American media while in the White House. Completely inappropriate. I'm glad JD put him in his place. Hopefully next JD goes after the idiot that thought it would be a good idea to have Zelenskyy in the White House in front of the American media to litigate the case against Russia.

1:47, and I'll never listen to what OP says is funny again. Reminds me of a high school drama club trying to roast Trump through "parody." "Oh, we are so witty in our skewering of 'the man."

I watched the entire 7:45.

Some jokes fell flat, but I liked the acting and there were a lot of laughable moments.

And did you find a way to blame "greedy CEOs" for all the ones that fell flat?

Not only that, but the fact is, Zelensky has no interest in ending the war

If the war ends he has to face elections. If the war ends his celebrity ends. If the war ends, the grifting ends.

He wants another decade of stalemate grifting to consolidate power and Dems are all too happy to give it to him

I can see how leftists, media duped, and ideologically possessed find something like that funny. But to be actually funny, the basis has to be centered in the middle and from a non-biased stance. This one started off completely biased and let you know immediately that far left progressives whose ideas have bankrupted and ruined our country wrote it. From that point forward, the only humor was slight chuckles at character traits. The substance was absolute garbage.

I can laugh at republicans and Trump.

But I couldn't laugh at that.

Its just bad.

Well, it doesn't help that Lorne Michaels is Canadian.
