RE: Today in History : Saturday Night Live premieres for the first time

in #history5 years ago

My wife and I were actually up later than usual the other weekend and we noticed that they have moved it to an earlier time slot. At least where we live anyway. We didn't bother watching it, but we both commented that it seemed to be on earlier. I remember when I was a kid it would come on at like 11:30 after the 11:00 news. It seems it airs around 10 or 10:30 now. It is hard to believe there was a time when those icons were relatively unknown.

Sort:  

yeah, it was the only reason i was allowed to stay up so late when i was young. I think it was one of the last shows of the night (shows my age... programming would cease at a certain hour and the Poltergeist screen would take over after the national anthem)

I, like pretty much everyone else that doesn't really watch tv not on demand, have no idea what time it airs now :P

Yeah, I hear you, if it isn't on the DVR my wife and I really don't watch it. I couldn't tell you what day or time most shows air these days. :)

It can't help SNL that they are very protective of their stuff as far as online distribution is concerned. As far as a i know they don't really participate with any 3rd party online and most of the ones that are available online are blocked in many countries, including the one i live in. Oh well, I probably wouldn't watch them anyway :P

It would be smart if they started some kind of deal like Jimmy Fallon has with YouTube. That is one channel that I actually subscribed to on YouTube.
