Saturday Night Live is a late-night sketch comedy and variety show that first started in 1975 for NBC. The sketches are often parodied on many stuff like the president election or other TV shows or other media references. They also have their own shorts and characters on the show like "Coneheads". During the course of the show, it featured a lot of funny comedians like Chevy Chase, Eddie Murphy, and Adam Sandler, which helped build their careers later in life. There were a lot of movies related to the show like "The Blues Brothers", "Wayne's World", and "Wayne's World 2". Today, the show is still going on and it's one of the longest comedy night shows. There are some references of "Saturday Night Live" on many of the Homestar Runner toons.
