[Baby Punisher]

I hope it happens.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

He acted like a baby when it came to Spade stuff especially when he called up there to be dick about it

 

[ORRFForever]

I THOUGHT he had appeared on SNL in the last couple years.

Guess I was wrong.

Either way... meh.

It's apparently by her choice. Didn't realize that she's been on for 5 seasons.

I know she's not that well liked around here, but, she's among the most recognizable cast members they've had in years.

He talked for like 1 minute at the 40th anniversary show. So you were right and wrong.

 

[ORRFForever]

Story of my life.

Im in the same boat. I feel like many have just joined or are fairly new. Then you realize that Pete Davidson has been on the show since 2014 and Cecily Strong is entering her 7th season.

She was just not funny. She always messed up her lines.

 

[Khelandros]

Well he does have a movie coming out next year. Makes sense for him to be hosting.

 

[Jumptheshark]

Looks one of the new hires is a bit if a history with silliness

Things not going great for Shane Gillis apparently.

I wouldn't worry about it. You think SNL knew before hand about his history? They probably knew and were fine with it.

All this outrage over things people said in the past is stupid. It ruined Kevin Hart's shot at the Oscars.

She was funny at first, but she only had 1 note that she could play and it grew old. She wasn't good at sketches either.

Maybe it does blow over, but, dropping a pretty offensive racial slur seems significant.

You seem to be more aware of this comedian than I am, so maybe this is an anomaly and was part of a character he was doing, but as a visible minority, I feel I have every right to be offended by someone using racial slurs in that capacity.

 

[glovesave_35]

If it was any other minority than Asian it would be a bigger deal. Replace what he said with the N word and he would be out already.

I don't know anything about this dude btw. Just a general observation.
