Is SNL still on the air? Sorry, couldn't resist.
I will say this -- when I taught middle school, most of the kids watched and enjoyed "Mad TV," and now that I teach college students, few of them watch SNL (the topic came up again last week). I don't know who its target audience is, but if they are 22 and younger, they are missing it. And to me, SNL is supposed to be a counter-culture series geared towards the youth of America, the opposite of MTV which is supposed to be a pop-culture series geared toward the youth of America. Somehow neither seems to hit their respective marks these days. To me, SNL feels more and like the Sunday morning chat shows, which are geared more toward a select few rather than the masses. And by select I don't mean special or better educated; there just seems to be a market for SNL and I'm clearly not in it any more. -- Kevin M. (RPCV) -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People!
