    I'd never seen or heard Adele before last night's SNL.

    1. She's a more talented comic foil than half the cast.
    2. She has a beautiful voice and great charisma.
    3. Her songs are terrible and they all sound the same.

    She needs to pull a Ronstadt and just do covers.

      Michael Che’s Jeffery Toobin/New Yorker joke was the highlight for me.

          I've gotta say a lot of my disappointment was compared to the book. If you have not read it or can let it go then you may enjoy it, it just is a completely different project that happens to share the same gimmick.
          I'd have to look up my thoughts on it I posted before. I liked it, but it did seem to go a little off the rails.

            Yes you did. You watched Skyfall, even if you hated it. She won the Oscar for best song for that one.

                Yeah, I should say "hadn't heard knowingly." This happens a lot with Weird Al parodies.

                  Of course I'd heard of her. I don't live in a cave; I just have standards.

                  Although, let's look at the current Billboard top 10 songs:

                  0 0 never knowingly heard song; never heard of musician(s)
                  0 1 never knowingly heard song; heard of musician(s)
                  1 0 knowingly heard song; never heard of musician(s) <-- the Weird Al thingy
                  1 1 knowingly heard song; heard of musician(s)

                  1. 0 0
                  2. 1 1 (I have heard of Cardi B)
                  3. 0 1 (I have heard of Drake, not the other one)
                  4. 0 0
                  5. 0 1 (I have heard of BTS if they're that K-Pop group of like 40 guys)
                  6. 0 0
                  7. 0 0
                  8. 0 0
                  9. 0 1 (I have heard of Styles; I also know the Richard Brautigan novel and bet most of you don't. It is meh.)

                      Dr. Mrs. has the worst taste in TV of any person I have ever met:

                      Pen15
                      Mindy Project
                      This Is Us
                      Modern Family
                      Awkward
                      Jane the Virgin
                      Ugly Betty

                      I am convinced that every one of these shows is written by misogynistic Incel males who just want to make fun of the superficiality of Gen X and Millennial women.

                          My wife watched this and I have to say it was pretty decent. A little goofy funny without being too goofy funny; some really good lines thrown in at various times.

                          Same with Modern Family, though it could have been tightened up by being a couple of seasons shorter.

                            The show of that type that I actually appreciated was Crazy Ex GF. It's a vicious parody of those kinds of shows and the women who watch them -- the kind of show where if the audience had any inkling what the writers were really saying about them they would have a heart attack.

                              The first few season of Modern Family were great...it fell off a cliff fast though and I never went back.

                                That is the current standard; just that those have been around ALOT on TikTok. So if you haven't heard them, or heard of them, that'd be why.
