Could These Skits Save ‘Saturday Night Live’ from Itself?

The iconic sketch show 'Saturday Night Live' is facing a pivotal moment as it prepares to tackle political satire in a way it hasn't in years, particularly in relation to President Donald Trump. This shift is significant because it reflects a broader trend in comedy where political figures are often the target of humor, something SNL notably avoided during Barack Obama's presidency. As the show seeks to regain its relevance, this new direction could either reinvigorate its audience or highlight the challenges of modern political comedy.
