SNL can go to hell

Yeah, the show's been pretty much unwatchable for at least the last four years. Still, the pruning they did was pretty bad. Actually, I'm kind of glad they got rid of Chris Parnell and Finesse Mitchell. They were awful. But while they were at it, why didn't they dump Darrell Hammond. He's overstayed his welcome by about six years. Once Gore was out of the picture, he was dead in the water. And Horatio Sanz. Dear, dear Horatio. The one cast member to have a skit that I actually laughed at (besides of course comedic genius Fred Armisen). That's right, I'm talking about "Carol." Easily the stupidest, most underwhelming writing the show has seen since "Simmer Down Now." Still, like Cheri Oteri, Horatio could somehow pull laughs out of nowhere. Ah well. While we're at it, some others who should have been led to the guillotine: Seth Meyers, Will Forte who couldn't find a laugh with a maglite and GPS, Kenan Thompson (he of the big-boned black drag characters who all have the same personality). What were they thinking? Once again, if the show hadn't already been in a four-five year decline this would upset me much more. Ah well.
