:(insert 90% of the skits from the last 6 seasons here)was maybe the greatest concept for a comedy skit ever, and they just fucked it all up.
:There'd be a joke, and they'd wait for the audience to finish laughing, but since nobody was laughing, there'd just be uncomfortable silence.
They've had their moments, like the Jeopardy skits(not just because of Will Ferrell, but Ben Stiller as Tom Cruise, the guy who does Sean Connery and Norm McDonald as Burt Reynolds, classic), the Jim Carrey/Soundgarden episode was fucking hilarious. "Ride the Snake" and Carrey as a lifegaurd at the hot tub was brilliant. But most of the time it is just really bad.
: I plan on auditioning for SNL. My audition tape will be 20 minutes of a show, where nobody's laughing, then me, pointing at the screen, and saying "You call THAT funny?"
