SNL used to be good once. Does anyone remember that? I know it was a long time ago.

I am not even sure if Fire Marshall Bill was part of SNL. Shows how long it’s been since I actually bothered watching SNL.

I am sure I still clearly remember one of Dan Akroyd’s adds for the “Chinch Ranch 2000”, or something like that. He had a little condo-like stack of cages that you raised the Chinchillas in, and it ended with him turning a crank while ground meat and pelts came out of a couple slots. I thought it was the funniest thing I had ever seen in my young life, at the time.

Decades later, I realized that that was how the Democrats were using Chicago.

Probably wasn’t even good back then. It was the ‘70s and if you were up at that hour to watch it you were probably young and drunk/stoned.

They'd never make fun of Emma Gonzalez now like they did that other "bald chick" Sinead O'Connor back in the day.

...back when John Belushi and Gilda Radner were alive.

In the Phil Hartman or Dana Carvey days. Lovitz and Murphy too.

Yes, I remember. I also remember when the history channel was about history, the weather channel was about weather, and MTV played music videos. Back then, I think, CNN even showed news.

About the only thing that has stayed true to form is Turner Classic Movies, although "classic" has started to creep up into what I would call the modern era (but that just shows how old I'm getting).

Definitely. It was a good show for the first 3 years or so. It was a bit revolutionary for its time. The SNL commercials were fun. Ackroyd and Belushi rocked.
