The film commences with a memorable quote from Lorne Michaels: “The show doesn’t go on because it’s ready; it goes on because it’s 11:30.” This statement succinctly captures the spirit of Saturday Night Live, both in its past and present iterations. It also highlights the significant pressure Michaels experienced in ensuring the show aired that evening. Each narrative moment conveys a tangible sense of urgency, akin to the intensity portrayed in The Bear, yet centered on the challenge of assembling a live television program in the hour and a half leading up to broadcast.
