Totally agree. The Update writing has been very sharp this year, and this week Che's Beaver/Waxing Moon joke got lost, but was really funny...as was the one about the 102 year old beating Covid twice, but not his car. He was been very, very good.
But every week, there are a bunch of just terrible sketches that make you wonder if even the writer thinks they are funny, or it's just about filling dead air. This week, the sleepover is the perfect example. Like who thinks that was going to get any sort of a laugh?
It's time to either tighten it up to 60 minutes, or just put the thing out of it's misery entirely.
And I am not tagging for spoilers....in this day and age, 72 hours post broadcast is all the spoiler time you get for episodic TV.
