I watched the unreleased Drake skit they had a few days ago , and I couldn't believe how corny and cringe it was


Why did Drake agree to such a stupid skit

It's a sketch comedy show, so I think it's somewhat unfair to judge an entire episode or season. There's always going to be a mix of funny, meh, and godawful. The show has almost always been like that. It's darkest days were '93-'98 or so, IMO. That said, I haven't tried to regularly watch the show in about 6 years. I just seek out the skits that get a lot of buzz online after they air.

'94-'95 season gotta be the WOAT cast/season. All the vets obviously had their sights set on getting off SNL and stopped being funny and the new people just weren't any good.

I been through a lot of era's of SNL. I started during the Eddie Murphy years, but I would say the last time the show was really funny was when it was when it was Will Ferell, Tracy Morgan, Tina Fey, and them, so I'm gonna say the early 2000's. I'll say this, this current cast has a lot of talent but the writing kinda sucks.
The writing is atrocious

yeah, i can see that. because both of them were great writers
Yeah. I'm not saying that they were the reason why that cast was so good but they were part of it. And I feel like once they left they were like the last of that writing group.


The funniest shyt post them imo have been anything involving andy Samberg

They probably knew so that's probably why they didn't release it

It was official when these three left. They were great writers & contributors. Now it's meh, mixed in with a lot of hot or miss episodes depending on who the host is.

When Celebrity Jeopardy Sean Connery skits stopped.

Literally the last time I've ever laughed at a SNL skit.

When Will Ferrell, Fallon, Poeler, Tina Fey and Morgan left to do movies and other stuff. I will admit Samberg, Wiig and Bill Hader were the best things after they left
