I got 6/10 correct.
9 out of ten. The show will never be as good as it was in the 70s, 80s and 90s!
Why did it stop being funny after the turn of the century?
7 of 10, after the 90s, SNL is just a blur.
I guess And most of them is still get 8 of 10. Stop watching This show. After I got out of my early teens and was able to go out on saturday

5 of 10. I kinda knew I wouldn't do well on any questions after the early 80's. I never missed the show in the 70's but it lost it's magic for me after many of the original players left or passed.
I so agree, after Steve Martin, etc left, it was no fun anymore!
Hmmm...okay. Steve Martin never "left" since he wasn't a CM. He's hosted numerous times since the original cast left...if that's what you mean...

One of my favorite shows in the 70’s & 80’s. It was not the same caliber after those decades, in my opinion, and now I wouldn’t give it the time of day or late night as it goes.

Wow! 3/10. But I haven't watched SNL since the early '90s with Dana Carvey & David Spade. It's not funny anymore. And at times it's too political.
It was always "too political".
7/10…RIP Phil Hartman and Chris Farley. They truly made SNL worthwhile. So talented, yet gone too soon. 😔
That is soooo true!!
Let's not forget John Belushi and Gilda Radner. Two very different ways of leaving this Earth, but both sad nonetheless.
7/10. I don’t think I’ve seen the show since the early 2000s.
7 out of 10 :/
Not even close. Are you sure it hasn't been going for 48 years now...and is STILL the the #1-rated late-night program for all of the important demographics???
8/10 Brian Fellows and Church Lady made me miss. Still watch the show, but at my own convenience. Still like it, especially Weekend Update. Big fan of the show since 1975. But you know you're getting old when you watch a new episode and you have never heard of the host or the musical guest.
Hubby & I never really stopped watching, but every season (the current one, especially) more and more we find ourselves looking at the host and saying, "Are we supposed to know who this person is?" 😆
I so agree, Bapa. I've been there since 1975 as well. Too often nowadays, the host is simply some young nobody promoting a movie, and the musical guest is some other young nobody with little discernible musical talent.
But...do you know about the "SNL 1975" feature film that just started filming for release next year? Ostensibly, it willi tell the story of the last few days before the premiere of "NBC's Saturday Night" (Not yet SNL!) in 1975. It could have some fun, interesting stuff that we don't know about, or even that we've already known about all these years. Most of the young actors are fairly unknown...you don't want to go with big names here....but they also didn't go out of their way to find "look-a-likes". Let them act. I'm looking forward to it...could be fun. And also SPINAL TAP 2: THESE GO TO TWELVE NOW....

6/10 Had to guess on anything after the 90's. Think I 've only seen 1 or 2 shows since then
2/10 (not even worth typing:()
Love the classic skits such as "Matt Foley", "More Cowbell" and the "Church Lady."
Watch the current SNL on occasion, but the old skits are funnier, "jmo."

or even the SKETCHES are funnier...
Sketches or skits they're funny!
