Literally no momentum at all came from either action it’s wild. People were so pumped that it would lead to some ongoing movement.
That hasn’t happened at all.

Edit: For example they could’ve made sketches about the No Kings rallies. Even if we all agree those Rallies were in good faith overall, there are still funny/goofy instances within them. We all know that. But it almost feels like you can’t joke about it because it’s seen as backing the administration by the viewers if you do so . So they just avoid doing something like that altogether.
love SNL. The ability to mix sharply written comedy with a variety of topical satire is typically top notch.
But there is currently no variety or creativity. There is no shock or disruptive commentary. It’s just extremely predictable rinse and repeat messaging. Every week is “let’s just recreate what the administration said/did, but make it a little goofy”.
They don’t need to avoid topics, they need to become less predictable. Problem is they probably don’t feel the need to change because the audience loves every second of their administration satirization even if it’s woefully repetitive.
Comedy should be scathing and disruptive on all fronts. Not just constantly aimed at the same front over and over and over and over.
At some point it’s no longer funny satire, it’s just pandering. Th
Was born in the 90s so never got to see Isiah’s run with the bad boys.
But it’s not like I haven’t been blessed with seeing good Pistons basketball. The 2003-2007ish run of success was right when I first started getting invested in Detroit sports. And it was awesome.
But those teams famously didn’t have that 1 superstar. It was maybe the last example of a legitimate “team” winning with players 1-5. Big Ben, Rip, Sheed, Prince. All good but none superstar.
Now we have Cade. He’s the guy. He’s box office. He’s admired by the entire league. He’s fucking awesome. And he’s still young.
Growing up in the era of being jealous when other teams had that 1 star to watch night in and night out, it’s pretty great to be a pistons fan in 2026.
