    I think the season did have one truly great sketch that I can think of, the sketch where Chris Farley is somehow put on a Japanese Game Show and only knows English was from the 94-95 season, but it was early in the season before Mike Myers quit the show. Also the Zagat's sketches were from this season.

    Because this season was widely derided for it's poor quality, the "Bad Boys" (as they're famously referred to) being the main source of it- there was a definite feeling they were becoming, metaphorically, fat, dumb, and happy when it came to their sketch writing and acting. Many sketches were one note, repetitive jokes that rarely landed. Norm is one of the only exceptions, his Weekend Update being one of the only positives of the season.

    I thought it was because SNL's 20th season was one of their seasons that was so bad that NBC was seriously considering canceling the show (see also: Jean Doumanian's sixth season in 1980 and season 11 where Lorne Michaels actually had Joan Cusack, Robert Downey, Jr., Anthony Michael Hall, Randy Quaid, and a pre-In Living Color Damon Wayans as cast members) and the writers decided, "Hey, let's kill off the male cast members. Nobody will care because we won't be on next season."

Maybe (if the break from the familiar doesn't startle the anto-woke crowd too much) they can even try dubbing in a few bonus racial slurs for special occasions and replace the ending credits with photos of dead refugees intercut with soyjacks and rare pepes. I would say no need to credit me, but that would be intellectual communism and therefore "woke".

    After Farley left, I didn’t watch entire episodes regularly anymore. For a while I’d tune in and just be disappointed shortly after the cold openings, which gradually became the peak highlight of the shows. Then when they’d drag unfunny skits into the ground repeatedly, like the cheerleader skits in the late 90s, I would just turn off the TV for the night. Thankfully I moved away from dial-up since then, so if a rare modern skit happens to be funny, I can just watch it and not endure the rest of the show. Or I can just pull up the good old known classics whenever they happen to re-release them. (Please bring back more Eddie Murphy, Dana Carvey, Phil Hartman, Chris Farley, et al online SNL!)

Who are you, the Mighty Thor?" I don't know who wrote this one, but Its fucking insane how perfect every second of it is, and it couldn't have been that way without Norm playing the straight man.

    This sketch was meant as a send off for Farley, Sandler, Mohr, & Meadows, as Norm was the only one of them to be coming back for season 21. Meadows did get rehired after the fact, but this was Norm writing the most ridiculous send off for his friends at the end of the 1995 season. This is a time capsule of when SNL was amazing because while the writing might not have been great, the players involved made it amazingly funny. It was all downhill from here.
