When SNL whiff, they wiff hard. Not even the comic genius of Sarah Sherman could pull this sketch out of the cesspool. They decided to ridicule Aimee Lee Wood, to quote Keith Moon, "it fell like a Lead Zeppelin". Aimee Lee Wood is gorgeous, her overbite is part of her charm. She's sweet/sexy, the new Terri Garr. If she fixed her teeth she'd lose her identity, potentially losing her career.
I thought this was a great take-down of Trump, the White Lotus, and its fans. I agree the Sarah Sherman part wasn't funny.
3 episodes into Black Mirror season 7. The first episode is disturbing. Next two great stories, well told, but not a bad. Sometimes with this series one episide is enough at a time.
Haven't gotten to the Paul Giamatti and USS McCalister sequel stories yet.

Lorne Michaels is hinting at stepping down as Executive Producer of SNL, he's lobbying for Tina Fey to take his place.
Tina Fey's writing chops are still sharp, she has limited series coming out on Netflix on May 1.

"Adolescence" on Netflix is good, and well acted, but imho doesn't deserve the rave reviews its getting...
Maybe not a popular opinion but i find SNL to be slow and far too obvious humour. Take a funny expression/situation and repeat over and over. Their UK accent impressions are not well researched and their UK based characters all seem to be very plummy or exaggerated Scottish (if it's not Scottish it's crap) stereotypes. Never been a fan of SNL.
I agree. It's very hit or miss...I could not sit through an entire program. However, every once and while a skit hits the mark and gets good exposure on social media.
The rot has set in and settled. I am watching this show on Friday nights on Bravo. God knows why, but it gives me comfort for some reason.

Basically an unfunny cunt steps down to be replaced by an even more unfunny cunt.
Although she did a good Sarah Palin. Not funny, but a good mimic.
I'm catching up on Black Mirror now, lost track after S1. So far the episode with John Hamm as a cyber interrogator and the dynamic duo of Kelly McDonald and Faye Marsay attempting to stop a cyber Armaggedon are the top episodes inho.
In other news, Blake Lively has filed an $89 million lawsuit against NBCUniversal for defamation on SNL. Sarah Sherman is catching flak for her awkward spoof of Aimee Lee Wood, she didn't do anything stupid. Instead, she arranged to be in the same restaurant as Ron Bennington (the Godfather of the NYC comedy circuit) hopping to get his support. It worked Bennington calmed turbulent waters on his next radio broadcast.
The Robert Mugabe 'Cunt-o-Meter'* now sits at 130, (as of 11:35 AM on April 22, 2025).
* Total number of posts in The Lounge where he has used the c-word at least once.

I can't pick between White Christmas (John Hamm) and Hated in the Nation (Kelly McDonald, Faye Marsay) as the best episode of Black Mirror so far.
Ms. McDonald probably wasn't 20 yet when she showed up in Trainspotting.

Two episodes in and kinda hate everyone and the whole lifestyle!
Filomina Cunk made me spit out my mango smoothie.
Black Mirror is too heavy to binge, I alter with Ms Cunk. There are five seasons of the Cunk series apart from Cunk on Earth. Diane Morgan is a talented comic writer/actor.
