"This book presents an important study of the historical development of Saturday Night Live and its place in contemporary American cinema and television.It reinvigorates the area of comedian comedy by revisiting existing accounts as well as offering us fresh perspectives on film and television comedy." - Philip Drake, University of Stirling
"In this stimulating and agenda-setting book, Whalley reveals a formidable knowledge of Saturday Night Live and its relevant media and cultural contexts, as well as providing an acute and thoughtful analysis of its dynamics, its history, its influence, and its significance. He looks critically at established interpretations of the series and offers an original and convincing discussion that undeniably plugs a gap in scholarly work on contemporary U.S. media comedy." - Frank Krutnik, Reader in Film Studies, University of Sussex
