SNL's New Season

Posted: 10/2/04 at 11:40pm

Christ, this is pathetic. This 10 minute opening mocking the debates is the unfunniest thing I have seen in such a long time. It's just disperate. Give me 10 minutes and I'll write a debate parody that'll have you pee your pants.

Does anyone know how I can contact SNL? Little known fact about me is that my dream has always been to write for that show. And it seems this season they're gonna need me.

I was gonna post that I was pleased at how the opening sequence was fairly equally bashing of both Kerry and Bush.

But now Alec Baldwin is on my screen.. god, I hate that focker.

You call that mocking? I call it boring.

Every single person who knows me knows that ever since I was around 8 years old I've wanted to write for that show. It truly is my dream.

I hate the entire cast except maybe Tina Fey. They just lack the vivacity previous members had.

I never much loved it, but if you wrote things would change, Matt_G. I think you'd be good at it. Did you ever try to get in?

I'm not in New York yet so there was never any point.

Now things are going to change so I really would like to find out how.

well you gotta start somewhere, right! have u considered auditioning or taking classes with one of those groups? a guy I know from high school, a decent comedic actor at best, is in one of the Groundlings programs in L.A. if this guy was able to get a foot in the door, there's no telling how far a Matt_G type wit could go.
