"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.
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.
It was a very brown and tan decade. Just like the 80s were pastels, the 90s were neon, and the 00s....well, I guess the 90s was the last decade with any personality.
Censorship is what's bullshit. If you don't like something on TV, change the channel. Simple as that. Her prudish type deserves to be stood up to. Also, on a psychoanalytical note, it doesn't take Sigmund Freud to see that your grievance masks a bitter, square personality. Good luck with that.
@@susieq360you seem like the type of person to support censorship of things that hurt your fee fees. Yeah, it may not be religious sentiments. But how does it feel that now you lot are now the same sanctimonious whiners perpetually offended by everything? 😆
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
@@jg2722 Agree 100%. Most people usually only see and remember the good from past seasons, not the bad. Rose tinted glasses and all that. I guarantee you after 50 more seasons people will be reminiscing about season 50 and droning on about how SNL season 100 just isn't the same.
O'Donoghue was much smaller in size and funny enough made fun of Aykroyd being obese...this was recounted in 1992 Rolling Stone magazine. Was there this much drama right prior to the show???
The movie exaggerates it greatly. It basically took about two or three seasons of blowups, meltdowns, and slowly simmering tensions and pretended that it all happened in one night with the dumb premise question of, “What is the show?” which, yes, is a question a producer might have on their mind for a long time - but here they make it blatant with every other character literally asking it out loud every five minutes. The movie definitely treats its audience as dumb. But then SNL always has.
O'Donoghue was known to be a troll though. He liked to mess with & upset people just for the fun of it or be edgy & dark with his humor. I've seen a lot of backstage interviews with former cast members who worked with him & they found him funny but they almost all mention how he enjoyed being difficult. Some people just wanna watch the world burn.
@@wellesradio They really did kind of overdramaticize a lot of it & also take some creative license which is too bad since most of the cast was really good in it. It's more the writing than the directing or the acting that is distracting in this movie. It goes a little over the top with the backstage melodrama. Like the scene where Milton Berle was hitting on Chevy Chase's girlfriend. I do not believe that happened or that, if it did, Chase would stand there & put up with that. He probably risked getting kicked off the show than letting someone else punk him. We know this from all the reports since then about how difficult or uncooperative he can be.
The pride before the fall for each and every one of them. Don't get me wrong they were funny when they worked together but look at each of them now, and SNL as a whole. While this situation may not have really happened it is a very ironic.
Pretty sure the mouth-breather injecting partisanship into a comment section for an SNL biopic is the sad part. Enjoy your tiki torches, though. I hear they're particularly therapeutic when you light them in your bedroom before going to sleep. Be sure to do that, Adolf.

"Yeah I've hit plenty of Tony's!" 😆

I noticed it too. I figured it was an already made prop with real food in it so they were just snacking on it. Lol
I have some news for you. That bit was used by the original cast and refused by Hartman years later ❤
NO!!! Oh my god, that’s brilliant!
You're supposed to duck the audio, not mute the whole mix. Quit censoring shit.
Am I the only one who finds it IRONIC that a scene about ridiculous censorship is ridiculously censored? WTF?!?
I coulda sworn that was joel mchale
I've seen clips of this movie. And I must say good acting.
So good
Why do cinematographers always tint the shots gold brown when they do the 70s?
It was a very brown and tan decade. Just like the 80s were pastels, the 90s were neon, and the 00s....well, I guess the 90s was the last decade with any personality.
@mmclaurin8035 the 2000s were beige. Also, late 80s early 90s was neon. Mid 90s was flannel.
I kinda wanted to see this movie before I saw this "look at the cool smart heroes standing up to the mean old censors" hacky bullshit

of the morning
The sky is full of burning scripts today.
Kinda sad that SNL now has very blatant branded content in season 50 - it’s been like that for the past 8-10 years.

Wow, if cringe behavior had a stream of consciousness, it would be this movie.
Yeah, this is gonna be a hard pass on this movie.

I noticed that too. I remember one of the fake ads in the first episode had him standing next to Chevy, and Chevy was towering over him.

This looks so pretentious. 💩
It was very
Film was very good though, I reccomend it.
@@SmileyySmiley??
@@SmileyySmiley I agree, I loved the movie and recommend it highly, the actor for Aykroyd especially nailed it
I didnt know the crazy lady from the mist was a writer on SNL

We reap what we sow. It’s all fun and games until you find out the whole thing is true and you’re screwed.
The sad part is is I don’t think this actually happened. I think liberals are so fucked up that they wanted this to happen.
They DREAM of this happening
I'm not even a liberal and even I think you're just spouting nonsense
Which part exactly? I mean... I know some liberals that are quite serious about bricks. Is that what we're talking about here?
Probably one of the more moronic comments that I have read. Of course, that’s just my opinion…Iike your’s.
