SNL ISIS parody

[john455]

So what do you think did SNL go to far, or is it just funny?

 I personally wasn't offended by the skit, I didn't think it was funny, but I can see how people could be offended. Did they go to far to soon? Maybe but it's SNL why is anyone surprised lol

I thought is was funny.

[TrickyNicky]

I loled :shrug:

[dralarms]

Not offended but very poor taste, IMHO

[glowdotGlock]

I can't say as to whether it is right or wrong but I turned it to SNL right at that moment and I did get a good laugh.

Historically SNL has been known for their non-pc poor taste.

I say good for them. It's good to see they're still doing what they do.

While I agree and acknowledge that's their lot we are still entitled to our opinions. :D

Now I have seen some hilarious stuff done by them and that one fellas impersonation of obama is spot on.

kinda stupid.

 

If they really want to push it they should develop a skit making fun of mohammad in some way. Maybe an art school scene where their only teaching is how to draw mohammad cartoons. now that would be funny.

I'm glad you told me it was a SNL skit. If I had watched it without knowing that, I would have thought it was a public service announcement put out by the Obama administration.

I tried to like your post but it said an error occured, that happens with some members here, don't know why.

That would be a funny skit, plus the Obama administration would have a ballistic hissy fit over it.

Hopefully in a year and a half we will have an administration who will actually combat ISIS instead of making excuses for them and not afraid to call them what they really are. Maybe then SNL can make a part 2 of the skit where daddys little girl is in Northern Iraq joking with her ISIS friends, turns around and is looking right in the muzzel of a 20mm chain gun on the bottom of an Apache helicopter, makes a funny remark right before she is suddenly dismantled.

Funny

[Grand Torino]

I'm good with it.

[Caster]

Funny and I'm cool with it.

I wasnt pleased when south park had Jesus in a boxing match with satan but that's an Americans right. That goes all directions. Screw anyone who is so offended they think a need for action is warranted. Laugh at what you want to laugh at.

I didn't find it super funny, but chuckled at the end.  I wouldn't call it offensive, it's just a comedic spin on current events, like most of SNL is.

[No_0ne]

Good skit, funny, and very typical of SNL.  I don't watch it very often anymore, but it's good to see they can still do topical humor, satire and farce as well as anybody can ...

[felinesNfreedom]

I chuckled as the truck sped off shooting into the air. Not really funny but I don't get offended and pissy about it. 

[TNWNGR]

Dumb and dumber....

[BigK]

I'm not offended at all, but then again, I'd like to think I didn't raise a kid capable of being recruited by ISIS. If anyone should be offended it's the parents who DID.

Ditto.  :)

My bet would be that they'd be too afraid to do it.

 

EDIT: Having watched it I didn't find it funny at all. I wasn't offended either, just...nothing.
