I have 4 stations that are PBS stations and they run 24 hours a day. One of them only plays children shows. Sounds like they've gone overboard with all the extra money that's coming in.  SNL has become the pathway to Hollywood and movie stardom. If you don't mind suffering the wanna be comedians and the bad writers in anticipation of seeing a good comedian with a good writer it's worth watching.  If they do get a good one, the question is how long they'll be there.  I've never seen a comedian that left SNL for Hollywood return when their career went belly up.  Maybe that's part of the deal. When you leave, that's it. No coming back. Or it might be too humiliating. Ain't show business grand.
