[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The show & the cast have jumped the shark. Put it out of its misery. [/quote]

People have been saying this for 30 years.

It's weird it keeps trucking along and even manages to be halfway relevant, yet it does. They have been recruiting cast members from TikTok and YouTube for a while in order to attract younger audiences, and it kind of works (young people do NOT watch SNL when it airs but they will watch and share clips online later, and older people both watch it live or watch clips online, so it actually stays moderately relevant).

Television in general is a dying medium, so of course SNL is in decline, but the clip sharing keeps it from being a total dodo bird.

I don't really like it but am glad it's still holding on, along with late night talk shows, because right now these are places where people continue to mock the president, and it's important that we live in a country where you are allowed to mock the president. Of any political affiliation, they mocked Biden too and that's healthy. Trump's efforts to silence these critics because he's thin skinned are dangerous and so this would be the worst possible time for this stuff to go off the air. We need it to stick around and help us get through the current threats to Free Speech and other political freedoms while we have these people in charge with totalitarian inclinations.[/quote]
