The moment reminded me of how I felt when I watched Andrew Garfield and Ryan Reynolds kiss at the Golden Globes four years ago.Ī lot can happen in four years. Presidential administrations give way to new ones. But there's still progress to be made on 'SNL.' LGBTQ protections appear in the workplace. That's not to equate 'SNL' as an indicator of our overall culture. No single show could bear all of that responsibility nor should it. But the series remains an institution that people regularly watch and discuss, even if it's simply to gab about a YouTube clip of one of the sketches.
