The shift in SNL’s content has been particularly noticeable in its approach to political satire. Once known for its equal-opportunity political jabs, recent seasons have seen a more one-sided portrayal, often at odds with a significant portion of its audience. “Comedy is subjective, but it should also be inclusive,” noted comedian Joe Jest. “When it starts to feel like a lecture, it loses its essence.”
The response from SNL’s fan base has been mixed. While some applaud the show for taking a stand on social issues, others feel that the heavy focus on ‘wokeness’ has detracted from its primary goal – to entertain. “I watch SNL to laugh and escape from the week’s stress, not to be reminded of it,” commented a long-time viewer.
NBC’s deliberation over SNL’s fate also highlights a growing challenge for networks: balancing content that is both socially relevant and broadly appealing. In an era where viewership is fragmented across various platforms, the need to maintain high ratings is more critical than ever.
