Why do you need a line of defense for a comedy show.

Weekend Update is usually pretty funny. As for the skits, I don't see why the performers constantly cracking up at their own jokes and breaking character is now seen, by some, as the pinnacle of comedic talent.

Also to add they only show the best videos of the old days so it all seems like gold. Completely agree with you.
