It won't last, though; when you make intentionally provoking the President the main goal, comedy becomes secondary, and SNL needs all the comedy it can get.

I can understand why people would follow a religion that offered so few answers.
And yet they'll continue to ignore the dozens of domestic terror attacks and continue to not have any meaningful gun law reform. Bread and circus.
He needs to be taking the sort of medicines you use to put down a Clydesdale.
Obviously the frogs were born this way.
Listening to Joe Rogan is only slightly less painful than listening to Alex Jones.
So the answer is to give him even more coverage? I don't follow the logic.
Reporting on his insane antics only encourages them though, because it's guaranteed media attention and traffic to his website. He won't go away, but the AV Club and other media outlets can refuse to cover his nonsense and take away the exposure he so desperately craves.
He's so dangerous that you're giving him an open platform to spread his nonsense by covering it? Great job, AV Club. Next you should do a report on David Duke's thoughts so we can cover the full spectrum of people who don't need to be given any more attention than necessary.
Wow, that is scarily accurate.
A regular thing? This is SNL. They've hit on a good idea, so they will absolutely run it into the ground.
The Wonka sketch would've been a lot better if she wouldn't have been reading cue cards the whole time.
I am getting pretty tired of Baldwin's Trump. It's a one-note character with zero subtlety and although the impression is pretty terrible, the tone is spot-on, which makes it just depressing rather than funny. I get why they do them, but it's a lazy out in my opinion.
There's also the someone inconvenient fact that it's all imaginary and never happened, so no one is exactly "wrong" about it.
As long as TV Guide's existed, Trump has been rich enough to have someone read him the TV Guide out loud, so I'm not even sure I'd count that.
I knew he didn't read books when I heard him speak.
Also literally every time he sits down at a piano in the movieā¦
One question I think we're not asking is: do we really *need* an oral history of a flash cartoon website from the early 2000s? I enjoyed Homestar Runner as much as anyone did back in 2002, but come on.
I watched Janeane Garofalo's early 90s HBO half hour the other day and I cringed at how amateur it seemed. She's definitely gotten exponentially better over the years.
I loved the special and I love Jen Kirkman; my only complaint about this special is that she's done a ton of podcasts where she basically runs through all these bits in the form of stories on the podcast, so there were a lot of jokes I'd heard before. It was still a great hour of comedy though.
