You know what would have been a much much much better thank you? Having Sinead back on the show while she was still alive.

Nah son - maybe this was L Mike's thank you for her controversial performance that catapulted SNL back into the limelight when everybody said it was dead?! That pope pic rip is part of everyone's pivotal '90's pop culture moments.

Did they have Elvis Costello on, or is he still banned for critiquing capitalism in song?

He was invited back in the 25th anniversary special and performed Radio, Radio with the Beastie Boys. https://old.reddit.com/r/LiveFromNewYork/comments/w1oczn/beastie_boys_performing_sabotage_at_the_snl_25th/

Ps. Tbc, I was responding to, what I thought, was you making fun of Sinead tribute? And I'm not a stan, I just recognize society ate her alive because of her shaved, outspoken head, and hence a was a witch. Of course Lorne recognizes to include her for viewership, not significance.

Dude should know you never throw down against a comedian. They will eviscerate you every time.

It was sadly satisfying to see her Celebrated by Ireland after her death.
A demonstration that in the end they realized she was right.

Yup, you’ve got that right.

I watched the SNL music show the other night and what flashed back into my head and made me cringe all over again was the thought of the crass “Sinbad” and “Cueball” jokes they made about her on SNL. She didn’t deserve that. Ever.

She was right.

Not enough of the general public understood what she was trying to say.

Too many of the enablers knew exactly what she was trying to say.

"Nah son, I gotta simp for the worst person involved in that situation and who has been proven to be 100% in the wrong by history"

She wouldn't have gone back. Have any of you paid one ounce of attention to what she did in the years after her appearance? Or is it more fun to pretend like you give a fuck about what she stood for?

SNL didn’t even create the concept of “banned for life.” Ed Sullivan had done it to several rock and roll acts on his show. But, extremely weird that SNL has a “banned for life” list, virtually a list of guests who generated spontaneous moments on the show.

When you're right, you're right.
