Photo: 'Wayne's World"/SNL/NBC When it comes to the world of sketch comedy, no show has ever had the respect, reach, and influence of ‘Saturday Night Live’. Premiering in 1975 on NBC, the show has been a staple of the network and of late-night television as a whole. Even during the summer when the show is on extended hiatus, I still have to remind myself not to look up if there’s going to be a new episode this week. ‘Saturday Night Live’, often abbreviated to just ‘SNL’, carries prominence in the pantheon of pop-culture media, with many sketches often going viral before “going viral” was even a thing, and many events from the previous night’s showing making the news the next morning.
