It's a comedy show. You don't like it, turn the channel

 

[Sonny Black]

Sonny has not thought the show was very funny for years....

putting a bass in a blender, NOW THAT'S FUNNY!
:jerk:

Would've been really funny if the truck was labeled "Junior Varsity".

SNL ceased to be funny in 1979. After that, it has sporadic moments of brilliance, but mostly long, drawn-out strings of stupidity.

Replace -a-Dad insurance was a killer.

Sonny Black,
I saw that episode back in the late 70s with my Grandmother...
She thought it was a "REAL" commercial.
She was elderly...

Yeah, that was funny!

[super-bee_ski]

Yeah,
You guys all know the rules...
"If it offends...turn to another show"

Same as the Political forum.
If it bothers you, don't go there.

But" honestly? SNL can offend, but this was a Satire....
I thought is was "practical" in this day and age...
Some clowns will go and support ISIS....

I could see John Belushi in the truck. Now that would be funny.

Back in the day, Hitler & the Japs were ridiculed and that was called patriotism. How things change....and not for the better.

 

[Meep-Meep]

Don't be stupid, be a smarty, come and join the Nazi party!

With all the crap Hollyweird pumps out on a daily basis,
shoving their ideology down our collective throats,
this is just a comedy skit, people get offended by this type of crap way to easily
& then stand up for the same lame people for their political views,
it's called hypocrites...

I'm with Ski you don't like it then change the channel,
it's not rocket science

I'm also in agreement with Sonny
SNL hasn't really been funny for a long time now,
just a few good skits here & there,
nothing like the Bill Murray, Chevy Chase & John Belushui era of SNL

 

[verdelaw]

I thought it was funny

My favorite episode was in 78 or 79...... plumber Belushi bends over exposing the famous "plumber's crack".

That was Dan Aykroyd as the Norge repairman. CLASSIC!

That is their right to make jokes about anything. But why can't they be funny? SNL, what a waste of air time. I haven't had a good laugh at their expense since the Motivational Speaker skit with Chris Farley.

BTW, Charlie Chapman was black listed by the Committee on Unamarican Activities for the socialistic speech he gave at the end of that Hitler spoof.

ISIS used to be the good guys...

I love that show Archer, funny for a spy spoof/Bond type knock off
adult comedy

[Photon440]

What is ISUS? Archer is ISIS.
