Saturday Night. . .Dead?

I am a huge fan of SNL. My delight with the show has continued through the bad years (it has always seemed to recover) and began with the ground-breaking early years when I was still in college. Has it been almost 30 years? The show has been a breeding ground for clever political humor, but now those days are over. The lame impersonation of GWB by this man has contributed most to the demise of SNL's political sharpness. I realize that someone gets this dirty job of impersonating whichever commander in chief is in office, and that it can be daunting and confining to be relagated to that role every week. When you're an unfunny doofus like Will Forte, that has GOT to hurt. The entire cast seemed to deflate when Jimmy Fallon left. (Yeah, I know HE wasn't even that funny!) He seemed to be the last glue that was holding the show together. It seems to me like no one's heart is really in it anymore. Maybe it's time to end the facade now before anyone else falls into a coma-like sleep while watching it.
