I Watched The NBC 3-hour special: "Ladies & Gentlemen... 50 Years of SNL Music"....

It was one of the most entertaining shows I've watched for a long time. It was really well done. I lived those 50 years and the clips on the show brought back many fond memories.

I love the way they integrated some of the comedy skits with the entertainers.

I recommend watching it if you get a chance. You won't regret it!!!

'Ladies & Gentlemen... 50 Years of SNL Music'

They may highlight it as a new offering soon, but I could only find it through a direct search....

My only disappointment was that some of the earlier performances were cut short or skipped over. There's no way they could have featured all of the musical performers in one three-hour special.

The high quality of this Special suggests that the official SNL 50th Anniversary Special will be even better and more exciting. Sunday February 16th, and they are promoting it as a "red carpet event." It will be a 3-hour show running live and simultaneously in all 4 time zones... starting at 8 p.m. Eastern time, and 5 p.m. Pacific time. Also streaming on Peacock.
