Comic Strips

Yeah, I don't expect to really enjoy it until I get to the SNL of my highschool years which *checks watch* is roughly season 35. I'll also note that I'm not sitting down and watching it through, I'm watching it while I do other things, because ADHD I guess.

I will say that, while a lot of it is political and news based, it's mainstream enough and often spelled out enough that I usually can pick it up either through context or because I've kinda heard of the event. There are also a lot of sketches that are largely not based on current news. I'd say I more or less understand most of what they're putting down, though I'm certainly missing more than I think, as it goes.

I mainly wanted to watch it all to learn about this history of the cast, as well as do a more serious watch of the era from my high school years when I was super casual about watching it and missed a lot, as well as the legendary eras from the ~10 years before I was watching at all. Slogging through the early season is just a side effect of that I guess. I've just made it to S07, it's a slow process haha.
