SNL50: Beyond Saturday Night

I loved the episodes about the auditions and the writers room. They were interesting, with a great balance of fun clips and relevant interviews.

Then the other two episodes were meh. I like the cowbell sketch, but a full episode about it when there are only four episodes is not necessary. They interviewed a guy from the cowbell manufacturer!!!!?? Really?! An episode about the most iconic sketches in general would have made a lot more sense when there are only four total.

The last episode about season 11 was fine, but again, it had no business being 25% of this runtime. This one would have been better served maybe as the history of Weekend Update.

Anyway, two winners and two okay-ers.
