Entertaining, Dated, Funny

See it if you just want to poke fun at celebrities, politicians, etc. Jokes are a hit and miss, but it's still a fun show overall

Don't see it if you are not up-to-date on current events or "celebrities". The skits will only be funny if you know the people they are portraying.

Cleaver at times

See it if you like satire of the news. Some of the skits are cleaver. Some miss the mark. Kudos for fearless acting and singing.

Don't see it if you don't like current events or satire. It can get a bit off of the mark some of the time.

Clever, Entertaining, Funny

Clever, Entertaining, Funny, Fluffy, Overrated

See it if you like topical comedy sketches that get updated from time to time but with inconsistent quality in the ever-changing casting

Don't see it if you want something thought provoking or meaningful, this is mostly gags in revue style based on headlines, but nothing deep or meaningful
