Saturday Night Dead

Okay, admittedly this is too easy, but here's an editorial entitled
Saturday Night Live Sucks! Again, everyone knows this, but the writer does cover most of the annoying aspects of SNL over the last few years. One thing he leaves out that drives me nuts about SNL is the fact that every time they have one of the black cast members in a sketch, they do the same lame gag wherein a white cast member says something somewhat racist and the black cast member gets offended. That's the whole joke! Sometimes, the joke is that the black guy has no real reason to be offended, but that's about the only variation on the bit. Look, it was funny thirty years ago when Chevy Chase and Richard Pryor were doing that bit, but that was a long time ago. Don't get me wrong- I'm not offended by it- it's just not funny any more.
