Platinum Contributing Member Skidooski Posted January 26, 2017 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted January 26, 2017 So this "rising trend of racism" started with Trump? And you're going to have an entire episode dedicated to making fun of your POTUS.....How butt hurt is that? Quote In addition to airing some of the most piercing comedic satire going about our new president, Donald Trump, Saturday Night Live has also gotten very smart about who gets invited to host. Last weekend, host Aziz Ansari weighed in on the rising trend of racism in the U.S., as well as Trump’s responsibility, as president, to heal a fractured nation. For its next episode, the show has hired Kristen Stewart—an outspoken star who was once the target of Trump’s online bullying. And for February 11—historically a Valentine’s-themed show—S.N.L. has devised the perfect love letter to its fans, in the form of their presidential impersonator and trusty Trump teaser: Alec Baldwin. http://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2017/01/alec-baldwin-host-saturday-night-live-donald-trump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But hey....let's GET IT ON!!!! Let's test people's mettle for their cause (or complete lack of one). Let's see who is willing to sacrifice it all. Oh, I hope we are close! I'll tune in to SNL like I do every Saturday....not. I am amazed that is still in the air quite frankly. Who's been watching that lame show for the last decade?

And you need to be honest with yourselves, that show has become the little haters stick stirrer. Nobody cares though. i just don't think it's been funny since Farley left. Sure, there's a skit every now and then that'll give me a chuckle, but I'm not watching that poorly written train wreck for a simple moment of levity I can get anywhere else easier.

Gold Member BOHICA Posted January 26, 2017 Gold Member Share Posted January 26, 2017 I like saturday night live and how they make fun... wish they would have found somebody besides baldwin to do trump.... he is horrible at his impersonation. A show like snl should be able to do better but the talent has been getting less worthwhile the longer the show goes on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Show has definately put out some great talent over the years, but its time to put it out of its misery. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, like many of these types of shows, they've found an audience with the disenfranchised who like to believe it's just "humor" but deep inside it helps them validate their lives to see their feelings brought to national TV. And that's fine with me. I think Baldwin is funny. But like anything, after a while, making fun of a person, a group, or anything for that matter just looks pathetic. And knowing they are pushing their true feeling on it makes it even more pathetic to me. But that is what the Dems have become...and it seems to suit many. They just look like pathetic, petulant children to me. And I'm ready to start givin' giving out spankings! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
