SNL has been shit for 40 years and it's all because of how they run things behind the scenes. It's chaos.

If they ran it like a proper production they might actually manage to write some funny bits.

I grew up watching SNL all the way back to Belushi, Radner and 'young Billy Murray ' and I can say that EVERY SINGLE YEAR people say the same thing: oh, it's not as good as such and such last year, last cast, etc.

But people still watch it.

For me? It's like listening to radio back in the day, you had to listen to 10-12 shit songs to hear the hits, but now you only get the hits on the 'oldies' without slogging through the garbage.
