When did SNL start getting funny again?

(i apolagize in advance for how vague my story-telling is)

a month or so ago i happened to catch Weekend Update right when that politician (i want to say senator) got in trouble for having hired a male prostitue, so it came out that we was gay AND liked hookers. then he attended a repairative therapy camp (teaches you to be straight) for 2 weeks and announced he was now fully heterosexual. Then the new anchor (not amy, the guy) looks into the camera and goes, "You hear that, homosexuals? 2 weeks. That's all it took. Get off your couches."

I died laughing.

am i the only one who's increasingly sick of those geico caveman commercials? it was sorta funny the first time but now i'm over it.

i hear they're making it into a tv series too. which is really just what we need.

um. nothing about cavemen will ever be funny. any kind of caveman joke or skit is usually sexist and not remotely original in any way. for something to be funny it has to explore some kind of repressed aspect of society, which cavemen references do not. dumb. i think its even worse than the fucking lizard.

commercials are sad. i'd rather just have a 50s style one "please buy our product. if you use our product youll be a happy american. thank you." but in jingle form.

Phil Hartman as the Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer was funny the first few times!

It was more a mockery of lawyers and TV law shows, though.

Have you seen the commercials? Because that's it exactly.
