Update on the failure of "Hate Trump" TV

SNL keeps sinking to new lows. Can cancellation be very far away...




NBC’s Saturday Night Live saw its ratings sink to a new low this weekend, just one week after host Elon Musk helped boost the show’s viewership amid pushback from some cast members.

SNL‘s ratings tumbled dramatically from the prior week, with a 3.5 rating among households and 1.5 among adults 18 to 49 years old. The results represent a new household season low and match a low among viewers 18 to 49, according to Deadline. Saturday’s episode featured guest host Keegan-Michael Key and musical guest Olivia Rodrigo.

The prior episode with Musk and musical guest Miley Cyrus drew a 4.7 rating among households and a 2.7 for adults 18 to 49.

The precipitous decline comes as Saturday Night Live faces mounting criticism for its left-wing slant and anti-conservative bias. The show reportedly allowed cast members to opt out of performing with Musk if they felt uneasy about the billionaire guest host, who has voiced anti-woke opinions.

During the Trump administration, SNL repeatedly mocked then-President Donald Trump, who was played by Alec Baldwin. But the show has mostly avoided making fun of current President Joe Biden, despite his numerous public gaffes.

As Breitbart News reported, SNL failed to air a single skit about Biden or his administration in the month after he took office.

There is some sort of syllogistic fallacy at play here...

I tried to watch Seth Meyers late night show for a few minutes last night. Someone needs to tell him Trump is not president anymore so he needs to find someone to blast.

And yes I've backed way off on watching SNL. But I happened to catch the Weekend Update last time. The jokes the anchors wrote for each other were brutal and so funny.

Thanks. I will do an update post on my life since December when I get time. It takes a while to describe all that.

What should you expect? Until Trump and some of his minions are finally convinced that he's not President anymore people will continue to talk about him. Some people are gullible and believe in whacko conspiracy theories.

I disagree with both of you. They should be proud their guy won and act accordingly which includes MOVING ON. Continally bashing Trump makes them look small.

..and paranoid.

And part of it is because their Trump Derangement Syndrome made them support a dementia patient/corpse..and they know they look foolish.

All of that makes them lash out. It will continue.

Greg, I did not vote for Mr. Biden.

Again, if Trump would go away there would be nothing to bash. But I do agree that if they would quit talking about him most people would forget about him - regardless of what he says or does.

Mark, you are one goofy MF. But i.guess in your goofball world, that's a good thing.

I must be a glutton for punishment because I watch Seth Meyers late night show for the 2nd time in one week. Actually, I kind of wanted to see if the Trump bashing thing is something he throws out there every night. Yes it is very much so and it's never funny. But Seth Meyers seems to fancy himself as some kind of political commentator. He should give it up and go with being funny like Jimmy Fallon pretty much has. Jimmy Fallon still mentions Trump occasionally but mostly he has moved on...thankfully.

45 is an unending source of comedy material.

The Clintons didn't go away. The Obamas didn't go away. Why should Trump?

I'm not saying he should, but if he wants people to shut up about him that would be the best way to do it. Having said that, Bill Clinton pretty much went away, and so has Obama. Trump can't keep his yap shut. He's like the guy that drives a tricked out Hummer with gold wheels..... it's the "look at me" syndrome.
