Seems like their material was superseded by something better every day

Oh, but to be a fly on the wall in the writers lounge.

There have been years/seasons when the conventional wisdom was that SNL was dead. I don't watch it mesmerized and seldom like the niche sketches about commercials and whatever is "hip" in the George CARLIN sense. And I never liked most of the original sanctified cast (BELUSHI, et al. ) .

*******But here's my question:

Who died to make Pete DAVIDSON the pope of SNL?!1


Oddly, I have been seeing him since GUY CODE, when he was just one of those guys over there, no big deal about him over there.

Yeah, I know his story about the dad and 09/11 AND his depression/suicidal struggles. I don't get how the big league ladies seem to flock to him - is it the Hidden Talent thing?!1

Is he really really funny - not to me, though I don't get worked up on the issue, don't care, just on the level of huh?

***ON EDIT: Che's comedic quotient for me is also low.
