I auditioned as a writer for SNL this year (didnt get it). The workload and ambition is insane. it's really easy to criticize until you have to produce even just the first drafts of a weekly packet, let alone redraft and get shooting script ready.

Oh, I wasn't saying it sucked. I just haven't heard about it much lately and I remember it from the '90s, which was a long time ago.

It was on point and very popular during the Trump administration, especially during the early years. Melissa McCarthy did an excellent Sean Spicer. https://youtu.be/UWuc18xISwI
