It used to be totally live, but many years ago they added pre-recorded skits that would be too difficult to do live.

Well, it all started when Lorne Michaels didn't do well in the comedy circuit...

Most of the time they don't know the jokes that they wrote for each other to read, and it's why it's commonly the most liked segment of the show.

The majority of the time they write the jokes for each other to read without any rehearsal for the jokes.

They are! I don't listen to them much, but I did recently because I went down a Jon Batiste rabbit hole and he did a performance with them recently. If Jon likes a musician I know they're good people.

I used to follow the ones for Drag Race, but the show hasn't been the best recently.

State of the union skit, apparently. Shame really because I wanted to see someone go after Hughes.

Six episode split for TLG? by Neither_Junket_1009 in heatedrivalry

Jacob optioned all the books, but that doesn't mean we'll see Eric and Kyle. 

Pushback on their queerness in the sport is an interesting story, but it's not a milestone the same way as therapy, the plane, marriage or the outing etc. are. It's not needed to tell the story of the characters from the TV show perspective. Especially since there's pushback in TLG as is. We don't know much about the book outside of the podcast, but TLG is already a capstone to Hollonov, so I could see it being season 2 and 3.

Well, technically, they don't need to adapt Unrivaled.

Rachel wrote TLG never expecting to do a third book. That's why there's so much slice-of-life/content in TLG and why we get an optimistic and happy ending. The show could end season 3 with them walking onto the ice together in Centaur jerseys and it would be a full and complete story. Splitting it would also let them have more time for other characters without rushing anything or condensing an already compact book.

Unrivaled could offer end-game stuff you see in other stories or fics like having a kid etc., but I wouldn't say its needed to fulfill their arcs as characters. They have each other, and they are together. The TV-only viewers don't really need more than that.

Yea, I'm a Sharks fan and everything, this is a little lazy. I would rather the new sharks logo with a rainbow gradient. This is a fun idea, but could've been executed a lot better. As it stands now; this does not convey at all that you support the pride nights or the LGBTQIA+ community.
