Maybe it's just me, I wasn't rolling laughing at the jokes or anything but they weren't so bad I'd write an article about them.
It's late night comedy, what did you expect? It's supposed to be more crass. And yeah, "more afraid of it because I might like it" is a classic. Big whoop.
You're never going to be a hack writing sensationalist bullshit headlines with that attitude.
It's also Nikki Glaser, probably one of the most savage and unfiltered comedians working right now. You don't bring her on without expecting people to make a stink.
Just now started seeing her roasts on YouTube. My god, she's a modern-day Don Rickles, nothing is out of bounds.
Reminds me of Rickles roasting Sinatra's mob ties. I was like, "Jesus. And Sinatra didn't call in a hit on him?!"
Sounds presidential quality to me.
That was pretty funny actually.
I thought it was okay. But then, it's an SNL opener, not a standup special, so I don't expect to be rolling in my seat.
I guess it would be considered horrifying by yahoo's tastes. They're 20 years out of fashion.
I thought the video clip in the linked article was pretty funny actually. I also strongly believe that anything can be joked about, just be funny. If you're going to pick some serious material, be funny and not a preachy asshole, and I'm on board.
Is someone being precious?
People still watch SNL?
I went back and watched the very first season. The funny bits were few and far between then too.
I do! It's ok
