To be a comedian you have to be funny.

Not ducking the question. I don't think what Gillis does is comedy as I understand the term.

I really have to question how familiar you are with his entire oeuvre, as he's not well known. And as you know, people you do not think are funny does not mean they are not comedians, if that's what they make their living at. Lorne Michaels thinks he's funny.

That would be more impressive if SNL hasn't been a bad show since 1980s. And also if Michaels hadn't hired Gillis to appease conservatives. https://variety.com/2019/tv/news/snl-conservative-shane-gillis-hire-1203339723/ …

Youre ducking the question, pretending comedy is not subjective. It's okay Jeet. We'll end this here.

Sure, comedy is subjective and my subjective experience is that the last time I really enjoyed SNL was in 1980s when Eddie Murphy was on cast. So I can't get worked up about Gillis one way or the other.

I remember it still being decent in the 1990s.

When were Jan Hooks and Nora Dunn? They were funny. I agree it hasn’t been funny for some time, but Kate McKinnon does a terrific Hillary, so it’s case-by-case.

Kate McKinnon also did a terrific Jeff Sessions.

She's the best part of the show but wasted because it's so bad: like grapes in a barrel of sawdust.

She needs her own show.
