The guy who does Trump does not do it well. And there was nothing funny in what he did.

It just isn't funny anymore.

I loved Hans Und Franz, Wayne's World, but nowadays? Fooey.

And Weekend update is almost always good. Though half-and-half last night.

He said that the MO of SNL back in those days was they'd try to make each other laugh. If they laughed, it went into the show.

I don't believe the writers laughed last week.

But most of them are just okay. I usually only watch it until weekend update, but I rarely stay awake that long. I'm sleeping almost as soon as my head hits the pillow
