    Is SNL UK going to be a weekly? How does this compare to the other weekly shows in the UK?

    I can’t imagine Taskmaster / WILTY / 8 out of 10 cats does countdown costing this much.

    The UK has such a steady stream of amazing young comedic voices, giving them an additional path to be creative and get noticed can only be a good thing. Honestly surprised this idea wasnt attempted sooner. 

    My only hope is that they allow this show to find its own structure and don’t force it to be a copy of the original SNL with UK accents.

    With 250k watching it live…

    8 episodes a year.

    If Comcast, who owns sky, buy itv I could see then moving it to there.

  4. I will never understand why people care about the budgets of shows the way that they do.
