has anyone on the site noticed the quality of saturday night live episodes have dropped over the last several years (not just my opinion I hope). this year I have yet to watch and find one (1) sketch that I find funny or even a little amusing. has anyone else come to this conclusion, what do you think is happening or the problem? the show just has not been entertaining, so far, this season, it does not make a big deal in the over all scheme of things, but why waste the air space on bad shit!
I’ve been watching for years and the political aspect of the show is always prominent in election year and it’s also only the 3rd episode of the season and the first few are always kinda rough… It’s like they take summer break and lose touch of the pulse of the people and have to get back into the swing of it…
I agree, hasn’t been too funny this season yet but should be getting better…
They need to bring back funnier recurring characters
Haven’t seen it in a minute but it seems like a lot of the shows have over last few years. Especially since everything is having to tiptoe on shit cuz of how easily everyone seems to get offended these days.
Yes, but the folks that they want to offend, are the same ones that the viewers of SNL want to be offended, so that isn’t really an excuse. I do disagree with @OleReynard, though, it has been since the casts of the 90’s that it has sucked.
I have watched since sometime near the beginning, and since then, I would imagine I have seen most of the best sketches created. All seasons so far, have had some good shows and so on… but it seams, to most viewers at least, the best is way, way in the past!
Yeah anything past the mid nineties into the 2000s I lost interest. After Farley, Sandler, Spade- that era, it really wasnt funny anymore. Haven’t seen anything since then that brought me back and the cast has been very underwhelming. It seems like theyre laughing at their jokes, before they deliver them as they are reading off a teleprompter.

Best one I saw after this crew was Alec Baldwin in Schweaty Balls. Flmfao
Yeah the Lonely Island music skits were good but the past 10 years it’s been more miss than hit.
The late 90s early 00s weren’t too bad but after that it started to fall off.
Today’s comedians have far more outlets to get themselves out there. That’s certainly gonna make it harder for them when they have to go out and higher a second tier cast since the top ones can explode from social media to selling out theater’s.
