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

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.

" It was a good show for the first 3 years or so. It was a bit revolutionary for its time."

It was very revolutionary.

And a lot of fun, most of the time.

Yes, the Bass-O_Matic was pure gold.

The commercials were a hoot.

I loved the "Little chocolate donuts" bit.

Some of the early years were not that funny, many misses for every hit.

For pure laughs, I would actually say that the late '80s early '90s were the best.

Who can top Phil Hartman and Dana Carvey?

Sure there was politics, but it wasn't JUST politics, and it didn't have the "mean" edge.

They went for the laughs first, politics a far second.

And before Alec Baldwin went full-retard "hate Trump", he was a terrific host.

Very witty and clever.

Now he's just a cranky, unfunny jerk.
