not funny

Sure it was.

It's ok to laugh at the stupidity of people.

Thank you! If we can't enjoy satire what have we become as a people? Watch the old skits with Chevy Chase interviewing Richard Prior.... HOLY CRAP!!! Today AL Sharpton and Jessie Jackson would be screaming racism but it was HUMOR and !%!^%$# it was funny!
People take life (and humor) to seriously... Let it go, have fun with it and don't have a heart attack at 40.

Not offended but also not that funny IMO. Don't know if that was because Isis isn't funny or the parody of the bad commercial just didn't work.
Yes I said it, the original commercial was a bit cheesy. Kinda playing to the Patriotic crowd a little too hard, don't believe Toyota gives a flip about our troops except to sell them and their parents cars. They deserve to be made fun of.

Pryor sure is a race baiter... Jeez. He went too far with the Grandmother at the end.

I DO NOT THINK ONE THING ABOUT ISIS, OR WHAT EVER THEY CALL THEMSELVES TODAY
HAS ONE IOTA OF HUMOR IN IT.
The death and pain they inflict is the ultimate evil on this planet.
Sorry folks NO ! Not funny in the least to me.
Many and even most on Saturday night live is funny, but not this...................... That is over the top.

not funny

Usually I have a well developed sense of humor. In this case tho I agree with >mcathcart< here. Nothing funny here.

... It did remind me, of Why, I quit watching Tellivision 8 years ago... And that was.... The Pure Stupidity of what they provide to view.

IMHO, Watching TV, produces Jello Brain Syndrome...

Saturday Night Live has always pushed the boundaries with satire. Tina Fey basically killed Palin with her "I can see Russia from my front porch skit" which is sad because look who we're stuck with?
If we allow people with thin skin to dictate our choices of what we see on TV (1st Amendment, freedom of speech) what's next? The 2nd Amendment??? Oh that's right, it's already under attack

Wow SNL is such an old TV show I think I was still a teenager when it first came out. Seems like that outrageous goofball Chevy Chase was one of the main stars.
