Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/14/25 Full Review StephenPaul C LOL, the funniest 18 episodes ever, including at home segments!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Featuring the Heinz Relax products!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/07/23 Full Review Audience Member LOL, the funniest 18 episodes of the 2010s!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member COMEDY IS SUPPOSED TO BE FUNNY Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member The audience score speaks for itself and is quite generous in my opinion. It's like watching a high school play full of teenagers who think they're being edgy but it's actually just embarrassingly unfunny and unoriginal. The cast shows glimmers of talent but they've got nothing to work with script-wise. It doesn't help that the musical guests are mostly nobodys with terrible songs but that's more of an indictment of what passes for new music here in the 20s. Some argue that SNL is as good as it ever was. Go watch a show from 30 years ago back-to-back with one from this season and make note of how horrifically wrong those people are. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member It lost it's spark ever since the ISIS sketches. I didn't think those were very funny at all! Plus, the show is getting too political...and it's supposed to be a sketch show???? PASS! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
