724 'likes' and 5 separate affirmatve comments to date. You say that Kyle Mooney is a genius, and he may well be. But what about this particular sketch gives evidence of that? Will someone describe its virtues to me -- in what ways it's brilliant? It's supposed to be a parody of a particular genre of film, but it's not a particularly incisive example of that. And the torn pant legs as metaphor. Really? Did that resonate with anybody? In all sincerity, will one of this bit's admirers make the case to me, because I don't see a good case to be made for it. I see neither a good serious nor a satirical point to this sketch.
