Maybe it’s a function of age, but I never watch Saturday Night Live anymore. When I was in college, it was new, fresh, and even if the odd sketch fell flat from time to time, overall it was cutting edge humor. I just don’t think it’s funny anymore.
Over the years, though, there’s one aspect you could always count on to be funny, brutal, and on-point: SNL’s political humor. So during political season, we make a point of watching SNL – at least the opening sketch. The show usually goes over a cliff after that. That being said, if you missed it on TV, you absolutely have to watch their version of last Thursday’s Vice Presidential Debate between Joe Biden and Sarah Palin. This is SNL at its very best and destined to be a classic. It’s about 11 or 12 minutes long, so grab a cuppa “Joe” and enjoy!

P.S. – Tina Fey should get a freaking Emmy for this. If they give them out for stuff like this.

all things considered, it’s not surprising that the GOP won’t schedule any more unscripted air time for Palin
