Got the 2nd season also.
SNL used to be funny.
I remember staying home and watching the show on Saturday night.

1. yeah, I remember making sure I was near a TV on Sat. nights... |
|
...so I could watch SNL during the first couple of years. I haven't watched it in many years-- but in fairness, I don't watch ANY television any more. What a wasted medium!

2. those are the best ones, those and the Eddie Murphy-era ones |
|
the only thing I liked about the past 5? years (mostly I found SNL pretty much unwatchable) was Tina Fey.

5. The skinny lady was Laraine Newman. |
|
I am having a good time.
Twenty bucks for all the complete shows isn't bad.
I will be getting seasons 3 and 4.

7. I've seen every episode to date |
|
There's always at least one funny thing each show that makes it worth tuning in for, IMO. Season one and two were hilarious when I saw them live in my early teens.

9. I got the DVD for Christmas |
|
and the memories! It was defiantly must-see TV at the time. On Monday at work, or school, you had to be primed on what was the best part.
