“Saturday Night Live” opened with its latest episode Saturday night with a sketch that took aim at Donald Trump and the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 riot.
“One person is responsible for this insurrection, Donald Trump, and one person will suffer the consequences: me,” said Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, played by Heidi Garner, after holding hands with her “best friend” Rep. Bennie Thompson (Kenan Thompson).
Thompson let his panel-mates know that after presenting evidence they would all get the chance to enjoy “a little treat,” and showed off a tin of cupcakes,

What used to be a hip, edgy comedy show aged into a decrepit, unfunny propaganda vehicle.
So Not Laughable.

Back in the day, SNL was the best late night entertainment ever. The good actors have disappeared and apparently so have the writers. John Belushi, Garret Morris, Dan Akroyd, Jane Curtain, Gilda Radner, Bill Murray. Never missed it but now I always miss it.

It's funny. I suggest you all watch it. It's not often that SNL makes fun of Democrats.

I haven't watched SNL since Guilda Radner passed away. She cracked me up. I did catch a John Lovett by chance once as a pathological liar, funny, and looking back on it, typical of all duhmocrats.

I never watch SNL and instead was watching Cleveland beat the Yankees in the bottom of the 9th. What an exciting game!

Thanks #8. I did watch the clip, and it wasn't bad. Especially Schumer calling Door Dash from the bunker. For some reason, I think that actually might have happened.

I do warch the opening skit, mostly to see the direction of the show.Last night's opening skit was well written, but had an ameteurish quality to it on delivery. These kids are mostly new to the show, and it will take a while to become smooth.
The content of the skit, which made fun of everyone, wuld not have been doen during the Obama years, because he was untouchable, nor during the Trump years, because all attacks had to be directed at him.Now I'm waiting to see if they are willing to go after Dementia Jo.
