Good fucking lord this Bill Burr monologue on @nbcsnl is the most out-of-touch “the kids these days are too woke” pathetic shit. You could feel the audience struggling to comply with the “applause” sign. Just awful. And not because it’s “offensive,” because it SUCKS.
Really feels like Lorne Michaels was like “you know who we should focus on right now? The unheard voice of the straight white man who just feels like ‘everything has gotten too political lately’”
Reminder that SNL tried to hire Shane Gillis but had to fire him bc of his racist comments. Tonight they tried to have a country singer on but fired him bc he violated covid guidelines. Pandering to the “guys who get their news from Joe Rogan” crowd is ALWAYS a losing strategy.
