Nothing to see here. Move along.
This episode of New York City's twin huge embarrassments, right alongside the failing fish wrapper*, could barely be considered a legit TV show. It filled an empty time slot on the NBC roster and that was the extent of it.
Seeing a venerable "live" broadcast die right in front of your eyes is traumatic for anyone who has been a loyal fan. Now brain dead beyond any true hope of resuscitation, this former staple of weekend viewing must be put to rest with as much dignity as humanely possible.
Yes, I'm afraid it's true.
The time has come to pull the plug.
RIP SNL

*The term "fish wrapper" refers simply to newspaper traditionally used to wrap fresh fish at a neighborhood market or a greasy batch of fish and chips from a local pub. The implication or subtext is that the pulp daily has no use otherwise.
