I used to love that. Did they get in trouble or something?

2. It's probably just too depressing to do it these days...
I sure can't watch it anymore.

4. I don't remember them doing it for the last 2-3 years.
Oh well. Only way I would watch it was with John Stewart doing his interpretation.

5. I agree.
We can't even laugh at the Saturday Night Live sketches anymore.

8. No, they stopped doing it a few years ago, not just since the strike
My guess is the writers cannot out-weird reality anymore.
