why on earth were some of the skits and also the musical performances cut out? if your paying to watch it, you should get to watch it all. i would give a higher rating if i felt i was getting my money's worth. i bought this episode to see bruno mars perform, and one skit and both performances were cut out. last time i purchase something like this from google play. rip off!

This show was funny in the 70's and 80's. Most sketches are not even funny now - you're lucky to get one laugh per show. I think comedy has been eviscerated, perhaps by overactive "social consciousness." I'm not sure. But I can't tell you how much I wish this show would be funny again. Please, God, do whatever is necessary to make this happen.

This was really good back in the seventies in the 80s but whoever is running Saturday Night Live now can't even operate a bubble gum machine There is no comedy and Saturday Night Live anymore in fact the entertainment altogether anything past the 1990s is just simply disgusting not even worth spending any money. I'm NOT paying those dirty rats in Hollywood. I miss the old days when things was really entertaining and funny and when you turn on the television people had class and Showmanship.
