The only part of SNL that's funny is Weekend Update. It's been a VERY long time since SNL was funny. This skit was an attempt at satire but the jokes were flat.

I missed the cold opening tonight.... this is actually funny, even though it's a joke SNL has played like 17 other times before. But it works mostly because Kenan and Ego really drive it home by sheer force of their personalities. (I love how central Ego has become to the cast this season btw... Has a black woman ever played such a pivotal role on this show?) (Not counting Maya Rudolph because I know y'all don't acknowledge her blackness, and I'm not 100% sure that she does either)

Snl is corny but isn’t this satire?

I mean...it’s a honest take on the history of police brutality against minorities. Society refuses to acknowledge this no matter how it’s delivered
