Season 12 of SNL is “the weird year”, huh? Hearing Lorne Michaels saying he wanted SNL to die really hurt. But it's alive and well after 50 years, huh? Also, it felt like there could be way more episodes. I kept checking to see if more episodes would be unveiled. I guess not.

I don’t know. This season looks kinda Fire to me. FRANCIS FORD COPPOLA & PHILIP GLASS DID AN EPISODE?!? Yo fuck Damon Wayans. First of all, doing a stereotypical, effeminate gay voice is horribly offensive & homophobic. Especially considering he had an an openly gay cast mate. Second of all, how pet

and fuck chevy chase!

The ratings for this episodes are STUPID low. This was actual, informative Documentary Film. Fuck off.

the season 11 lore is never ending and it’s amazing

wow young lorne really did look kind of like gabriel labelle

Like catnip for an SNL nerd when Jim Downey, Robert Smigel, and A. Whitney Brown among others are talking heads. A little too "well, you know it was hard because it's an all new cast" like Jean and Dick didn't adopt a similar problem to solve when Lorne left initially (very weird to not mention The

The problem is I trust lorne with my life so it’s difficult to believe he’d ever do anything that failed

Why was Lorne so airbrushed

Didn’t know about the weird year

Not a fan of the editing this ep tbh

I honestly can’t wait to see this season.

The worst of the four, but it does round out the series fairly well

I wouldn’t mind another biopic sequel to Saturday Night solely about Season 11. A limited series perhaps? I would LOVE a director directing the entire episode again. Christopher Nolan? Jordan Peele?!?! That would be hilarious given he got rejected from SNL

so peacock cut the funny sketches from that Francis Ford Coppola episode? great on par with them

cesar catalina probably hosted snl

It feels appropriate they saved the best for last since, outside of showing why this season was so important to the history of the show for a multitude of reasons (it's easy to forget this is where Tom Hanks hosted for the first time as one such example), I liked seeing folks such as Terry Sweeney g

I really liked this deep dive into SNL's 11th season. It's such an interesting, bold, clunky anomaly and it's cool to see its impact on SNL and the launching of many entertainment icons through the season's successes and failures.

that FFC episode looks unbelievable WHAT

all i've learned is that lorne is only a hero until his wallet or legacy is threatened. then he turns into a villainous monster. once again, like the cowbell episode, this is focused on one singular thing (a single season of the show) just because it's the first season after lorne came back to show

It did exactly what I want a documentary to do for me — it taught me about a topic that I barely knew and raised my interest. So I must say: I would love to watch the Coppola episode. On the flip side, the ep dropped the ball in several ways, ways which are obvious given the intention and the money

And how a good sketch can be hard to write.
The year that got "weird",
Where everyone feared,
There might be no more Saturday Night.

Just like Season 11 this was underwhelming
