And here is the second half of our two-part opener for this new season. In this episode, we look at LGBTQ-themed recurring Saturday Night Live sketches airing in the year 2000 and beyond. Basically, this one gets us from The Girl With No Gaydar to Bowen Yang, and that\\u2019s actually a pretty good synopsis for the evolution of queer-inclusive humor of on this show.
Our next installment will be the first deep dive into a specific era of SNL, starting with the \\u201cNot Ready for Prime Time\\u201d era, and that will be coming in November. So look forward to that \\u2014 and meanwhile prepare for a little bit of cultural whiplash.
