Feminism killed comedy and just about everything else like relationships, marriage, sex, the workplace, our military, educational institutions, America's standing in the world, blah blah blah. It's no mystery why SNL isn't funny anymore. Gilda Radner, Jane Curtain and Lorraine Newman could actually pull off playing female roles. GONE GONE GONE.

If you want COMEDY watch 'I Love Lucy'.. STILL ON TV AND STILL GETS TEN TIMES MORE LAUGHS THAN SNL!!!!

The early years of SNL were the best.

Yep, feminists are toxic to humor. That’s why the punchline to the best feminist joke is: THAT’S NOT FUNNY!!!!

I was thinking about this earlier today (as I read about SNL’s parady about the movie yesterday) and it really shows how basically small Hollywood is nowadays. They can make these snide remarks about conservatives, Christians, Republicans, the NRA, or other similar sorts of people. However, ones like Norman Lear and Mel Brooks say that they could not write and produce the movies and television shows that they made back in the 1960s and 1970s nowadays because of the pressures of political correctness.

At least ones like Lear and Brooks took on all sorts of things and sent them up or satirized them. You can even see how episodes of “M*A*S*H” were written back in the McLean Stevenson-Wayne Rogers-Larry Linville era (particularly in the very good old days of Ugly John, Spearchucker, and Ho Jon) and know that they probably would not be able to make episodes like that nowadays because it would be shouted down as racist or sexist or whatever other offence perceived.
