Anyone else see the open box of Colon Blow on the desk? It's from a satire ad that starred Phil Hartman, which came in a much-later season... but it's a nice shout-out/Easter egg.
"You will be forgotten." Fifty years later... I believe the guy who got punched by the guard was meant to be scenic designer Eugene Lee, who won a Tony earlier in the year for Candide, which I saw in December of '75.
Whatever that means. As a big SNL fan i can honestly say SNL has been hit or miss since the beginning. Every season has hilarious sketches but also bad sketches.
@@jg2722 In the last decade or so, a large number of sketches end with a cut to some product and a punchline that loosely ties the product to the preceding sketch. I would agree that the show has always had its ups and downs (by and large, I actually think the current season is pretty good), but that particular feature feels very hacky and soulless.
@@jg2722 That's possible; I've watched a lot of sketches from all eras of the show, but I'm definitely most familiar w/ the most recent period. Did the earlier decades of the show really have a lot of sketches ending w/ product placements? I can't think of any but that doesn't mean they don't exist

You're supposed to duck the audio, not mute the whole mix. Quit censoring shit.
So good
Kinda sad that SNL now has very blatant branded content in season 50 - it’s been like that for the past 8-10 years.

@@harryfranklin1263 no not the last decade, ALWAYS. Nostalgia is just blinding you.
