Taking you back

This was a great look into what it takes to make SNL, as well as some of the high and low's of the last 50 years.

Seeing how the 11th season imploded was insightful. And let's not forget more cowbell, that shirt was much tighter than I remembered it was.

Seeing some of the cast see their audition for the first time ever was cool as well. Especially their recollections of how they made it too the audition. Or in case of some of them, how many times that had to audition anyway.

Learning the crazy hours to pull it all together was a surprise. Especially some of the forgotten about effort, like costumes and sets..

Hope that they make more of them.
