I wish SNL would have ended with the mothers day greetings

Wtf was that

[nolabear]

1. It was nice.

[MattP]

2. Having moms complaining about Trump's witchhunt?

[Takket]

4. see... SNL is a comedy show.... and that was a joke............

[nolabear]

6. How many years has it been on now?

🤦🏼‍♀️

[USALiberal]

10. Why does that matter? nt

[nolabear]

12. I think it's safe to assume everything is meant jokingly.

9. The joke is that the only funny parts

Of SNL are the political sketches.
The other stuff is pretty sophomoric humor.

3. Totally agree!

[question everything]

5. Boring. Turned it off

Of course, I may not get it. Spouse suggested this was millennial humor. We are old boomers..

7. It was awkward. I felt bad for the moms fed lines they didn't know how to deliver.

Comic timing is a talent. You can't just feed a punchline to the average person and expect it to be funny. These women were not comedians and it showed. It's cute that they wanted to showcase their moms, but I felt bad for the moms as they flubbed their punchlines.

Now Melissa McCarthy as Michael Che's mom on Weekend Update, THAT was funny!

14. I thought they were surprisingly good.

Not professionals, no, but they vamped and clearly were loved and had a ball.

[Tipperary]

8. Lol.

Yes, your spouse nailed it.

11. I didn't care for it.

I thought it looked to imply that all the women my age are for Trump.

[nolabear]

13. I thought it was a joke about "what if all these anti-45 people had moms like that!"

If you watched the 2015 rerun right after it had a Mother’s Day opener too, with some of the same moms. I’d have been thrilled to be in on the jokes and was impressed how good they were.

[Uncle Joe]

15. I'm just curious. Was it a generational split?

"Women your age supporting Trump" and Millennials made to look naive or ignorant?

I only saw the last part of the news update segment.
