Lorne Michaels has ruled ‘Saturday Night Live’ with absolute power for five decades, expertly managing egos while adapting to cultural shifts, keeping the show relevant.
Michaels likens ‘S.N.L.’ to a Snickers bar: viewers expect a specific blend of humor and familiarity, highlighting the comfort level built over years of tradition.
The show has faced ups and downs, akin to the New York Yankees, with audiences feeling a sense of nostalgia for the seasons that correspond to their youth.
Michaels believes entertainment professionals juggle two tasks: their actual job and finding ways to improve ‘S.N.L.’, indicative of the ongoing quest for quality in the show.
