'SNL' Post-Election Show With Dave Chappelle, Foo Fighters Delayed by Clemson and Notre Dame Game
11/08/2020 12:08 am EST
Very 2020
After four days of counting votes from the Nov. 3 election, the delay in Saturday Night Live due to the Clemson-Notre Dame is a big 2020 mood, per fans online.
Waiting for Chappelle
While the episode is the first time in four years that Chappelle hosted, it might look to be a new tradition for the sketch comedy series as the 47-year-old hosted the first post-election episode of SNL in 2016.
Enough is enough...
While Notre Dame scored a touchdown in the second OT quarter, fans waiting for the episode were hoping it would wrap up really quickly.
Football sketch?
Was SNL experimenting? Fans joked that the delayed episode due to the football game was an experimental sketch. But definitely, one that didn't score with audiences at home awaiting the highly anticipated episode.
Unwarranted delay
Of all the shows delayed, fans took issue with NBC delaying SNL tonight, especially in light of the election when Joe Biden was projected as President-Elect on Saturday morning, beating out the incumbent Donald Trump.
Saturday Night Live airs Saturday nights at 11:30 p.m. ET on NBC. For the latest on all things SNL, the 2020 election and much more, keep it locked to PopCulture.com for fresh, up-to-the-minute news.
