So this is what they meant when Lorne Michaels said at the end of last season that SNL would have fewer commercials but more opportunities for "original branded content":

The Microsoft branding in the robot sketch later on stood out like a sore thumb to me, as did a Burger King sketch earlier this season.
Although, honestly, the DD one was pretty funny - probably the best sketch in a relatively unfunny show, save the cold open. My cousin loves DD, and I could totally see her as a substitute for Casey.
I must be getting old, since "SNL was funnier when..." is finally starting to take hold. I'm not a fan of most of the current group since around the time Cecily Strong had a stint at the Weekend Update desk.
And yet I watch....

There's a picture of me somewhere holding an iced coffee next to my cars dash showing -17 degrees. I drink Dunkin's iced coffee year round.

"Grab a crullah, have an extra large, 3 parliaments, take a big dump. that's kinda the routine."
hysterical. If only they had him holding up the line with a big list for the construction site written on a 2x4.

When "Actual Customers" was put up on the screen, THAT was when I lost it.
They missed the chance to show a drive thru line spilling on to a major street blocking one lane of traffic.

Ahhh, you've been to Rt 18 and Park Ave in Weymouth? Supposedly the busiest DD in the world, with 2 drive throughs. In the morning the lines are out of the parking lot and down Rt 18. The town actually had to widen the road by a lane to make room, otherwise traffic was at a standstill.
I thought Canadians were bad when it came to our Tim Hortons.
As for the SNL spoof, loved it, my favorite part was describing his routine.

It's crazy from 5 AM till about 10 AM. It actually has two drive-thrus, one full service, the other a kiosk style hut that just serves coffee and donuts, no sandwiches. This is in a town of < 60,000 with 9 full-sized Dunkins and a half dozen kiosks.

Nah, Pawtucket Ave in East Providence. About a hundred yards from a school with a crossing guard! I love leaving third shift at 8AM!
