Can you define a woman? Do you not want to or not really know? Or worst of all do you know that you can define a woman but it goes against your politics?

Do women matter to you at all? Wife? Daughter(s), Sister(s), Mom, anybody? All those titles mean something. Whether you want to admit it or feel like society should recognize it or not, it matters. I'm not a birthing person, I'm a mom. I'm not a bleeder, I'm a woman or a girl/female and it matters. There is nothing wrong with a trans person/trans woman but they aren't the same as me. They should have and deserve rights, but it should not interfere with mine.

Do you not understand the significance of the definition of a woman for somebody in general society let alone this position?

Only republicans can be made fun of, and they don’t currently control any branch of our government.

Yeah they never make fun of Biden or Harris. And Trump is definitely not in the news anymore.

“I'm not a biologist" could provide a lot of comic fodder. SNL chose to make fun of the question. I wonder why?

The answer was stupid too. Yet they only chose to make fun of the question. When Hillary lost to Trump instead of making fun of her loosing to a clown they had a sad piano solo to open the show. If you really don't think their "jokes" target a certain side of the political aisle then you must be watching a different show.

:lol: Is this a joke? I can't remember the last time they did a parody of Biden or Harris.

Probably the best episode I’ve seen in a few seasons. Very good monologue by Chappelle. The skits weren’t great but some funny parts. Weekend Update was solid. I skipped over the music. I don’t think I’ve recognized an act all season.

I don't remember the last time I watched it. It was really good. I thought the new Trump was perfect.

Yeah that Trump guy is a bit of a one trick pony but he’s really good.

Pedro Pascal this past weekend with Coldplay as musical guest. I know it is a low bar to jump over but one of the better episodes this season. Pascal was good in most of the skit but a couple of them went off the rails with the cast cracking up and laughing which made it a little funnier. Mildly funny which again, is a pretty low bar.

Watching SNL tonight because Charli xcx is on. It's honestly pretty good. I feel like SNL is coming back.

NBC showing the Holiday Special. A few sketches I didn’t recognize because I don’t ever watch the show anymore but they’re not bad. Looks like they’re saving the classics for later…it’s 2 hours long.

This season has just been ok. Very hit or miss but the cast definitely has a couple of rising comedy stars.

i think the best newer sketch i hadn't seen before was the apply pay ebeneezer scrooge skit with martin short (and steve martin eventually). another newer one i saw was about white elephant which was painfully unfunny.

they left out a few classic skits that come to mind to make room for that one? yeesh.

Sarah Sherman is going to be the next big star. She might already be.

I haven't watched it live in a couple of years and don't think I'm going to start again anytime soon. That being said, Jost and Che put on my favorite Weekend Update since Dennis Miller.

The do-each-other’s-jokes bit was very good.

"Shiiiiiiizzz!" was funny but it was overshadowed by Colin Jost getting caught off guard but that wild, enthusiastic ovation for Luigi.

Sarah Sherman is carrying this era of the show, with an assist from Dana Carvey, of all people.

Esquire posted a top 25 cast members list. To say I disagree with most of it is an understatement.

I can't comment on the last decade because I've barely watched. But Ferrell, Fey, and Chase are too high. Hartman, Murphy, Belushi, Radner are 1-2-3-4 in my book. Kenan Thompson probably deserves to be a little higher than listed because damn it's tough to do that job for as long as he has.

Eddie Murphy and Phil Hartman at 1 and 2 for me. "There is no SNL without them" is true for both of them but in two totally different ways. Dana Carvey and Mike Myers should be right up there as well. Tina Fey belongs right at the top.

I'm just glad Norm Macdonald was able to just barely edge out Pete Davidson in the writer's eyes.

Fey, Carvey, Meyers, Ferrell are in the 5-10 for me in no particular order. I'd leave the other spot for somebody from the last decade.

Weekend update anchors only: Norm is the Rickey Henderson of update anchors. Then Dennis Miller and Tina Fey. Chevy Chase didn't do it long enough.

Carvey and Hartman are definitely in the Top 5.
