Well seeing as it has taken 4 1/2 hours to summarize
What SNL has been about for the last 40 years... I am not sure how to address this.
It's a live sketch comedy show that features a reg. cast of Comedians, a new guest host each week (from Actors, Comedians, Musicians, Sports icons, etc.), a feature musical guest that can range from top of the charts to indie. There is political satire, original characters, impersonations, digital videos, musical satire, etc. 22 movies have been made based on character skits from the show. Most of the regular cast have all gone on to be comedic icons.
It really is what has shaped comedy in the states on many levels.
So in summary... Your missing out
