    Elon Musk to host SNL

    Somebody educate me. What is all the fuss about Musk hosting SNL. Apparently a couple of cast members have been posting nasty tweets.

    Because the current SNL cast is a bunch of no-talent hacks trading on the reputation of way funnier people from years past.

    Seriously- SNL, like the Rolling Stone mag, Madonna, the Simpsons, and a few other holdovers decades old counterculture turned mainstream turned shambling post pop culture zombies need to be humanely put down.

    Last I checked, those folks were employees of NBC. I am supremely confident that Loren Michaels has a notebook with multiple potential cast members in every conceivable demographic.
    My attitude would likely be you all can say whatever you want about Musk, on any platform you like. Just be here thurs for the off book rehearsal at 1500 on your mark, with your lines, in the skit with Musk or here is the last check as per our contract and your desk contents in a box at the security desk.


    I check in the show from time to time. The Trump/Biden/Harris/Rudy/Sessions characters are moderately humorous.

    The Eddie Murphy Come Back episode was the last one I watched from beginning to end since the 90s.


    As a kid who attended K-12 in a very integrated urban public school system (KCMO metro area) and worked retail at a similar mall thru college, I thought the Cha Cha Slide Skit below was quite funny, and was chock full of "inside baseball" if you were ever an odd person out at a high end African American Social Event.

    Can the writers and stars get higher?

    I stopped watching when Dennis Miller left.

    I was a teenager in the mid and late 70s. It was time to stick a fork in SNL about 40 years ago.

    Now GET OFF MY LAWN!

    And that right there is funnier than 98% of the stuff they put out in the past 20 to 30 years!

    Every now and then they'll come up with something good like Alexa for seniors and black panther- Black Jeopardy which make it to YouTube where they will live forever.

    I can't think of the last time I watched the show itself.
