Who can forget John Belushi's immortal words , in a russian accent , "I would like, to feed your fingertips , to the wolverines "

I am old enough to have remembered watching it live. A great career cut short but thank god for video tape & film

I haven't seen a decent episode since 1990. It's mostly juvenile junior high humor with little wit or intelligence now.

Great cast but this season is awful. I mean really painful. Last season was great.

I do not think I have watched a full 90 minutes since Eddie Murphy left

I think of a great SNL episode as one that holds my interest until weekend Update. Even good episodes go down the drain after that.

Very true. At that 12:30am mark, the filler sketches come into play. I only watch now for Weekend Update and the occasional musical guest (especially this season, they've been more entertaining than the guest hosts!).

Exactly! (And that performance doesn't even do justice to the CD.)

The problem with SNL nowadays is that while it has always been about showing a more humorous side to a featured pop culture celeb, it used to be done with biting satire. Even when I watch old episodes from the 70s/80s, I STILL find the parodies and jokes hilarious. Nowadays, the sketches are done for the sole purpose of celebrity mugging and some misguided idea that Horatio Sanz's inability to keep a straight face is somehow funny.

I've always enjoyed SNL. I remember in 8th grade, the way to be "in" with my drama teacher was to know skits from the show. She loved it. Since then, I've been a big fan. I think that Amy Poehler and Tina Fey are hilarious, and I have a tiny crush on Maya Rudolph

I miss the early days of SNL in the 70's. Belushi, Radner, Curtain, Chase.........were the best. Today, SNL seems very childish. Maybe that is not the word I am looking for. Perhaps it startred to dwindle because it was just too much of a good thing.
