    SNL is nightmare material for this. There are some good bits in seasons 2-5, but seasons 6-11 are apparently awful. I’ve been attempting to watch the entire show, and I’m currently stuck halfway through season 6.

      Are you not supposed to treat it like the NFL and just watch the highlight reels?

      Nothing against the comedians on SNL but who’s line is it anyway has a much higher hit rate.

        You can watch SNL however you see fit. I also enjoy Whose Line is it Anyway, both can exist and be good. I like sketch comedy, and the fact that SNL is live really adds to it and makes it all the more impressive imo, though I am aware that it’s popular to hate on it of course.

          WLIIA has the advantage of editing out the sketches that don’t land. SNL cannot. That’s why i say that “the best of SNL” is a preferable watch. No hating.
