I don’t think the problem with snl us is the not enough time.

>First on LateNighter: Saturday Night Live UK has yet to air a single minute, but it has already solved a problem
it hasnt even aired yet, so it clearly hasnt done anything.

The runtime differences are misleading. SNL is 90min including commercials but is 69min without. The uk has less commercials per hour so that 75min runtime will be more like 63min so pretty close with SNL.

Nah. I like that there’s structure.
Plus it’s a slippery slop: “Why does it have to end at 1?” turns to “Why does it have to start at 11:30?” turns to “Does it even need to be live?”

I still don’t see how this sort of thing can be successful over here.
