Nick revisits five moments from past “Saturday Night Live” episodes that the cast and writers now see as mistakes. These include scenes with outdated or offensive language, inappropriate portrayals of real people, insensitive jokes about serious events, or simply unfunny content. The actors who regret these moments are Dana Carvey, Tina Fey, Fred Armisen, Seth Rogan, and Bill Hader. They worked with others like George Wendt, John Mulaney, Bobby Moynihan, Colin Jost, Michael Che, Seth Meyers, and more on these sketches. You’ll learn about how these scenes were created, how they were received on the show night, and the public’s reaction afterward, including apologies from the creators. In today’s sensitive and politically correct environment, where understanding what is acceptable can be confusing, these five examples stand out as lessons learned in the history of SNL. [EP48]
