take out will ferrell (who JUST got hot
two or three years ago), and by almost
every measure

1.) box office clout of alumni
2.) impact on popular culture
3.) impact in the music industry
4.) impact on hip hop

in living color wins if you measure
them from the time in living color
came on until now.

which actually shows how wack snl
really is, because ilc has been off
for a long ass time, and snl still
sits way in the back.

the only reason its still on is because
its an american institution at this point,
and because every six or seven years it
manages to spit out a couple halfway
funny people who occasionally go on
to be big.

oh, and also because its a total cash
cow for nbc and brings in tons of ad dollars.

but on a funny, culturally relevant level?

ilc got it, easy.
