  • That Show – The Horror…The Horror
    2025/01/29
    Season 11 of Saturday Night Live is often regarded as the weirdest—and possibly the worst—season in the show’s history, and episode 13 serves as a prime example of why. In this episode of That Show..., Nick revisits the infamous night when George Wendt hosted, Phillip Glass was the musical guest, and none other than Francis Ford Coppola directed the show. In an attempt to address harsh criticism, dismal ratings, and skepticism about the show’s direction, Lorne Michaels decided to transform SNL into an Apocalypse Now-like experiment. The result was a surreal, chaotic, and unforgettable broadcast that must be seen to be believed. Nick delves into the wild sketches, the bizarre creative choices, and the behind-the-scenes stories that led to one of the boldest—and strangest—episodes in television history. Relive this fascinating moment in SNL lore! [Ep108]
