... the television industry showed its lack of imagination and innovation by passing over, time and again, new and ground breaking shows by sticking to the safe old formulas.

SNL isn't the best thing since sliced bread.

And, strictly speaking, SNL is more of a variety/skit show than a comedy series. Tituss Burgess should have won this award.
