First ‘SNL U.K.’ Weekend Update Takes Aim at Former Prince Andrew: His New Residence, Marsh Farm, Is ‘Named After the Nearby Marsh Where His Body Will Be Found’

There's an SNL "UK"?....

Yesterday was the premier episode

I'm more surprised it took this long to have regional variants.

There was a Friday/Saturday Night Live in the UK in the 80s

Oh really? Interesting.

That was Friday / Saturday Live and was wholly unrelated to SNL.

I just looked this up to add to my Sonarr. A few others came up. SNL Spain, France, Korea, Arabic, Poland, and Quebec.

All from between 2009-2017. The only one still going is Korea with 16 seasons. The rest didn’t make it past 4 seasons. Interesting.

There have been several instances since the 90s.

They made 'SNL Québec' a few years ago.

They need to create a separate youtube channel only for SNL UK, I'll not endure random videos on the Sky TV channel just to watch SNL stuff.

Anyways, I love this, more SNL is always better :^)

Because they didn't link to it in the article

We used to have really good satire in the UK. It’s like the worse things get the more safe and kid gloves the comedy gets.
