In a move that has sent ripples through the entertainment industry, NBC is reportedly considering canceling its long-running sketch comedy show, “Saturday Night Live” (SNL). Sources close to the network cite a significant drop in the show’s humor quotient, particularly following its recent ‘woke’ transformation, as the primary reason behind this consideration. “The show hasn’t been funny in years,” remarked a high-ranking NBC executive, who wished to remain anonymous.

SNL, a staple of American television since its inception in 1975, has long been revered for its cutting-edge satire and comedic take on contemporary issues. However, insiders suggest that the show’s shift towards more politically charged and socially conscious content in recent years has led to a noticeable dip in its traditional humor and viewer ratings.

“The charm of SNL used to lie in its ability to poke fun at all aspects of life and politics, irrespective of ideology,” said TV critic Sam Laughter. “But the show’s recent tone has alienated viewers who looked to it for a balanced, albeit humorous, perspective.”

This potential cancellation comes amidst a broader debate on the role of comedy in today’s politically charged environment. While some argue that comedy should challenge societal norms and promote progressive ideas, others believe that it should remain neutral and inclusive to all viewpoints.
