I've seen the promos for this. I absolutely loved SNL during the 80s. There was such memorable characters from that time, my favorites being Dana Carvey's "Churchlady", Eddie Murphy's "Gumby" and "Buckwheat" and Hanz and Franz "We're going to Pump... You Up!" :laugh:

The thing about SNL is, the cast changes every few years or so. Certain casts seem to 'click' together to make the show good,:clap: whereas other casts make a few seasons not very funny. :irked: I think that is what has helped it survive all these years, different brands of humor for different types of viewers. :lol:
