And the humor just isn't subtle anymore.

I grew up in the glory years of the shows first lets say 10 years, where you had brilliant skits like the Killer Bee's, the Samuri Short Order Cook, Its a wonderful life alternate ending.

Weekend updates with Dan Akroyd, and Dennis Miller and even Tina Fey were brilliant.

The show has really lost steam, I'd say its as bad or worse then the cast that should have worked but failed with Robert Downey Jr, Anthony Michael Hall etc.
I think this is selective nostalgia. If you watch a re-run of an entire old 1970s episode, half of those skits sucked too. It has always been hit and miss.

The Behind the Scenes doumentary on NBC last week was very interesting.

I'm going to see Norm MacDonald this Saturday with some CP folks!
