...sucks!  I've only seen it once, and was extremely disappointed.  It's
a half-hour version of SNL's "Weekend Update", but with less inspired writing,
a weaker cast, more sarcasm and less humor.  It's produced by the old producer
of SNL, and directed by Dave Wilson (SNL's old director).  As far as I can tell
from the credits, it's written by the cast (plus a couple of others) and is
half an hour long once a week.  It's possible that I saw a poor example (even
good shows can have bad weeks) but it seems more likely to me that it's normally
*** awful ***.
