Am I alone in finding SNL to be just awful?

I watched last week just for the Lady Gaga performances. I didn’t laugh once.

I’ve been flipping back and forth to tonight’s episode and it’s just unwatchable. How is it that places like Gawker still talk about SNL as if it’s culturally relevant anymore?

The best thing to come out of SNL in recent years are the Digital Shorts from Andy Samburg, and those are hit or miss (I’d say less than half are funny, with only a handful being very good).

Are there really people who are watching this when Nick@Nite is running Malcolm in the Middle reruns?
