All on a single charge?!

I will say that some of their hosts of late I have never heard of in any way. And some once I know about them do not want to know anything else about them.

Had not heard about next week's SNL host but he looks like he might be quite good.

I don't understand the point "on a single charge"? I did not mention batteries?

For this weeks episode, Jean Smart was the host. She was the main character in "Hacks", which received a 99% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. It was a comedy about her as an elderly failing comedian and her younger writer. It was on for 3 seasons. I watched the 1st 6 shows of season 1 and I like it, but then I lost interest. It seemed, to me, to be mainly for a female audience.

I loved her husband Maxwells work on Get Smart. So good!

Nat Bargatze is next week's SNL host. I am not familiar with his work but it sounds like he is a clean comic. Suitable for all ages.

None of my kids (age 29-39), nor any of their friends, watch the show... So your theory may be incorrect...

He was just on last October... Odd to have him back so soon (although I really like his stand-up...)

I agree that SNL makes fun of everyone no matter what age, sex, political party or class.

You must not be watching the same show I'm watching...

And that was a rarity... They are most definitely one-sided in their commentary. They have been for years...
