White House Correspondents Dinner on tonight
- Thread starter UncleMark
- Start date
Kommie channel studio people are trying to be light hearted but are having trouble getting past their disdain for all things Trump and Pub.
Just got home a little bit ago. I’d rather watch The View with Japanese subtitles.
Colin Jost is hosting? He’s at least likable.
Him at Che are the only redeeming things about SNL.
They’re real comedians too. Stand ups that work the clubs. Not paid actors like most of the SNL cast.

My ex stoker’s good friend was a writer at snl. You couldn’t find a woker crew
Jost and Che are talented.
The show stinks but we shouldn’t be dismissive of everyone who works on it.

Jost and Che’s Weekend Update is usually very funny and the best part of SNL and often many of the skits are mildly amusing rather than hilarious. However, sometimes they click and most of the show is hilarious. That happened about three weeks ago. The next week it wasn’t. Hit or miss, but we DVR and watch every new show. Been doing it for decades so it’s a habit and worth it when they click.
I can’t remember the last time I watched a show on network tv
Nah. Stop watching SNL. We are in a comedy renaissance. So many good stand ups right now.
Tim Dillon. Shane Gillis. Bargatze is good. Chappelle is still putting out specials.
You’re eating at Applebees when there is dry aged ribeye available.
I like DVR. I even DVR football and basketball games and start watching 15 or 20 minutes after they start so I can skip commercials. I like to be caught up after halftime to watch end of games live.
I find Ghosts pretty funny and we watch NCIS Hawaii since she grew up there and I have more than nine years living there. We crack up when they start a chase and instantly go from one side of the island to another.

What makes you think I don’t tune into those stand up specials? I watch what I want to watch. Many choices available.
Omg. All this time I’ve been arguing with my dork uncle.I like DVR. I even DVR football and basketball games and start watching 15 or 20 minutes after they start so I can skip commercials. I like to be caught up after halftime to watch end of games live.

I doubt it. My nephews are all very smart. 😉
I really thought the line about his age being a factor because he was a grown man "running against a 6 yr old" was pretty funny...
Most of the SNL cast comes from improv, since it is sketch comedy show. But over the years a lot of the cast members were from the standup world and were usually used as the Weekend Update anchors like, Norm McDonald, Kevin Nealon, Colin Quinn, and Dennis Miller,
Trump on Truth Social: "The White House Correspondents’ Dinner was really bad. Colin Jost BOMBED, and Crooked Joe was an absolute disaster! Doesn’t get much worse than this!"
What an asshole. Like he even watched a minute of it, although I'm sure he got word that he was the butt of several jokes.
Trump hasn't had the balls to show up at a WHCD since Obama hurt his feelings when he gently roasted him during the 2011 event. That, of course, was after weeks of Trump's unrelenting TV blitz where he suggested Obama was Muslim and repeatedly claimed that he was an illegitimate president because he wasn't born in the US - - "one of the great scams of all time," he told Bill O'Reilly.
If I was Obama, my humor directed at Trump that night would have been a lot more caustic.
Funny Jost joke Saturday night: "I’ll be honest with you, I don’t have a lot of time. I need to get back to New York because I’m juror number five on a big trial. Trump’s lawyer took one look at me, and he’s like, ‘He’s got to be on our side.’”
Whatever Trump "truthed" (that's an extremely ironic word), his slavishly devoted sycophants that didn't watch a minute of it will repeat verbatim. I watched some clips and Jost was funny and Biden was amusing at times. Trump is too thin skinned to let anything aimed at him, no matter how mild, slide by without a barrage of lies to counter it.
It's as though his emotional maturity and development stopped at about age 12. I've never seen anything like this in any other leader, in any setting - - at least no leader who lasts in the job.
My wife watches that Bachelor/Bachelorette series and group texts with friends during each episode. She's also a fan of a couple of Bravo "reality" shows. I find that stuff completely unwatchable, but then again I'm not part of the target demographics - - women and gay men.
