That was the first time I watched SNL for about 2 years.  Boy howdy
was the fake Mac Jr. add funny.  I am surprised that Apple has not
sued NBC.

SNL usually has only 1 fake ad, and it is generally very early in
the show.  This program had 2 fake ads, and the Mac Jr. add was
shown very near the end of the show.
