YouTube Votes Thumbs Down on “Saturday Night Live” Sans Tina Fey, Sarah Palin
That was fast.
The recent resurgence of “Saturday Night Live,” spurred by Republican VP candidate and Alaska governor Sarah Palin and her comic doppelgänger, Tina Fey, may already be over.
How do I know? Well, there’s the gut check–I watched most of Saturday’s show, which didn’t feature Palin or Fey, and it was a snoozer (the absence of new mom Amy Poehler probably didn’t help either).
But we can also gauge the reaction of Internet users, thanks to the good folks at TubeMogul, a small start-up that specializes in tracking Web video views.
And the results are not so good.
