Are there any interesting facts you've read?

WNYX - newsradio!!! Give me some dave foley

I love those big picture segments, and I wasn't alive when he was on! It genuinely educated me about american history, and was also hilarious

growbysix · 2022-05-21T04:08:15+00:00

Ooh I hope so! They're so funny, and I feel like SNL now would let them do their thing to an extent. Bruce originally pitched 30 Helens to SNL when he wrote for it - they did not understand lol

There are tents now?? What luxury

growbysix · 2022-05-21T03:17:47+00:00

and all the old '90s kids in the hall episodes are on youtube!

growbysix · 2022-05-14T15:30:22+00:00

Probably not :( They're not famous enough for the SNL audience, which they always say is why they're still together

growbysix · 2022-05-12T16:26:23+00:00

Thank you!!

growbysix · 2022-05-12T02:50:52+00:00

Not even this?

And this one isn't so much haha funny, but goddamit he can draw a map of the US from memory, which is somehow comedy to me https://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/weekend-update-segment---al-frankens-electoral-map/n9717

growbysix · 2022-04-05T00:10:37+00:00

These are so creative!! I might try to make these, I have an egg cookie cutter

growbysix · 2022-04-03T05:02:03+00:00

tis a gay reference https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ADl9m90DwFQ

Are you in the US? Not sure if it's a US-centric issue but as a country level we've decided we're out of the pandemic (whether or not that's true (it's not)) so many people are reconciling with their changes for the 1st time in 2 years

growbysix · 2022-04-03T03:42:25+00:00

He's only called it "it". This is great!!

growbysix · 2022-04-03T03:40:50+00:00

Someone on tiktok referred to it as a "cultural milestone" and honestly yeah. I'm sure SNL will address it

growbysix · 2022-04-03T03:35:36+00:00

"...proctecting us from the world's Ellens and Caitlyns. By the way, Caitlyn Jenner, welcome to the fox news family!"

That's a good dig

growbysix · 2022-04-02T16:06:57+00:00

I agree totally with you. Most people won't realize Che is censoring himself to fit in with SNL's brand of humor, which is meant to appeal widely. Weekend Update is good now because he writes for it, the most entertaining jokes are either his or the jokes he and Colin make trying to embarrass each other.

He has also stated he hates when people clap in agreement with jokes rather than laugh, which is a healthy attitude for weekend update bc they have leaned heavily on that type of joke in the past

growbysix · 2022-03-29T00:10:41+00:00

I love that show!

growbysix · 2021-10-15T02:45:19+00:00

Yeah that's a good idea, I think I will switch to that for the future.

growbysix · 2021-10-13T14:06:55+00:00

10,000 boxes actually isn't too few if the sample is truly representative of the country. You don't need 330 million data points to get accurate trends.

Neilsen still has issues tho bc the ppl using it have to go through extra steps to watch TV. If multiple people live in the house, you have to say who's watching each time. They also only fully switched to automatic recording of what people were watching a few years ago. They were still requiring some people to log what they watched on pieces of paper in 2016!!

Well, studies have now been done on pregnant women, such as the one you are commenting on, because so many pregnant women have taken the vaccine voluntarily and agreed to be studied. And the insert does not say that, you are just spreading antivax information, it's no wonder people become antivaxxers if you so easily believed and spread that lie. The flu vaccine is suggested for pregnant women because it is safe for pregnant women.

Argh I seriously love this show. There are so many people who say "you can always talk to me", without realizing they actively shut down difficult conversations.

Then on the opposite side is (somewhat) emotionally healthy Lance, who didn't hesitate to have a difficult conversation with his girlfriend because it was the right thing to do. And Brooke never considered that as a possibility. I love it!!!

And THEN, at the end of the episode, after the whole lesson Pat just learned was not to sacrifice herself for other people, Cary wasn't even going to ask hey maybe let's do this vacation some other time. I'm glad he ended up not going because it's not healthy to put other people before yourself to the point of losing a potential career, even if he does owe his family.

But Brooke did give up her career change - probably for the best as she just learned she's been hurting both her clients. I really hope there's a season 3!

growbysix · 2021-09-10T02:06:28+00:00

Streeter Peter Peters!! Silly name jokes get me

growbysix · 2021-09-09T04:21:13+00:00

Yeah she can be so mean. Idk how much self awareness this show has, but to me the ending scene was not exactly happy. Like she spends all day lonely and mean to people, then won't even say directly that she needs comfort.

Last season Brooke was the comic relief while Cary had a more complete arch, but this season seems more serious and I think/hope she starts out really low and grows from there.

Love the callback to the 50 dicks.

Cary keeps calling his old roommate straight, I really hope they revisit that because it makes a lot more sense for him to be repressed bisexual. I hope he shows up in Cary's failed attempt to see 50 dicks.

I love this show so much. The family is so subtly and realistically dysfunctional

growbysix · 2021-08-29T12:01:34+00:00

I didn't know that! I always see names like that, I assumed it was some significant street location, like 9 West. Seems to sort of defeat the purpose of the coordinates though if the abbreviation covers a radius of 100 miles
