Featured review
Missing it's teeth
I watched this episode of SNL and something didn't sit right with me, it felt "off", but I couldn't figure out why immediately.
I tried re-watching some episodes from the 2000's and early 2010's and it suddenly hit me: The show has no teeth. Not anymore.
I think somewhere along the line SNL in the mid-2010's decided they couldn't make fun of celebrities anymore, unless they are politicians, because the show has just become so weak and safe with its humor.
Case in point, 1/29's episode. A skit about bad dogs? A song parody about...insomnia. Really? Where is the biting social commentary? The satire? I suppose the cast all want jobs in future Hollywood projects nowadays so they can't afford to offend anyone for fear of missing out on future roles.
Gross. Take some risks outside of politics. When this show is safe it is boring!
