Could it make the British legendary American comedy show laughing?

The TV Foundation in the United States entertained viewers and created comedy stars for 50 years. Can the British version reach the same heights?

For five decades, the phrase “Live from New York, Saturday night!” Soldly opened with episodes of Saturday Night Live, with a mixture of topical comedy and topical testing, celebrities and great music guests.

Now, Staple Staple will be in the United States directly from London after Sky announced plans to launch the “UK starring”, which coincides with the British comedy talents, to launch next year.

The broadcaster, who is supervised by the origin of the original presentation in the United States, Lorne Michaels, is the same as the same “live style, fast -footed” as his American cousin.

Since its launch by Michaels in 1975, SNL has been a vivid starting point for comic talents such as Bill Murray, Iddi Murphy, Tina Fay Will Ferrell and Mike Maires.

“They have taken a drawing comedy to another level completely,” said Joe Pescobo of the Group of Eighties of the last century. “The comedy slowly rock and roll has become.”

The unpredictable living hypothesis, along with longevity, helped keep her position. No other offer was nominated for (331) or (90) more Emmy Awards.

“I don’t think you can reduce this heritage when calculating his current success,” says Rachel Aruiste, a writer at the Guardian Rachel Aruiste. “This is something clear that the British version will not be able to simulate.”

Heritage is one of the reasons why the show still attracts major young stars such as Timothy Chalithit, who grew up as they watched even with the fans of linear TV sharply in the broadcast era.

“In the United States, the participation of guests is often worthy of publishing itself – they also know that their presence will generate a lot of advertising, so it is a profitable situation for both sides,” Arosti adds.

“I will be surprised if the British version is able to attract the same caliber.”

Atlantic writer Helen Lewis says that the public industry reaction is that assigning a copy in the United Kingdom is a “courageous step – I hope the team” with a difficult proposal. “

There are some noticeable differences between the via Atlantic TV.

The SNL budget in the United States will be much larger than the UK TV base, paying the price of a large team and a team of writers who work to The Wire to keep the current jokes.

“In the American version, it is a very expensive coordination, and it has a book room and keep a group of actors to spoil, mainly, all the time. This is really costly,” Lewis told the BBC Radio 4.

Lewis believes that the culture of American comedy is also different.

“Humor can sometimes be more striking. A lot of time, Americans struggle with British humor because they think we mean very.”

Comedian Jack Bernhardt agrees to the presence of various comic traditions. Sketch groups in the United Kingdom are often formed through friendships and their talents are presented in Edinburgh Fringe, while many American comedian actors are trained in improvisation and drawing clubs, especially the sharpening of their skills such as SNL.

Bernhardt says that these differences “cannot necessarily be repaired by assigning the British version of SNL – it is a complete comedy culture that needs to be shift.”

“This does not mean that one cannot do the other.” “Only this version of Sketch does not necessarily play the unique strengths of the comedy scene in the United Kingdom. This is even before we get into difficulties in making a living show.”

Looking at these challenges, the import of the name of an ancient brand like SNL is a gambling, especially at the same time When the TV industry stumbles in the United Kingdom.

However, the US fortunes appear A relatively firm contract was heldEven if the assessments are much lower than before reporting.

eagle I found that SNL is an average of 8.4 million viewers, surpassing all other shows late at night. It is also the best entertainment series for the Network TV between adults between the ages of 18 and 49.

“You rarely hear anyone who asks whether SNL will” remain “, just how Michaels moves,” the correspondent Joseph Adali wrote. “He may fight linear television for his life, but SNL seems to be safe.”

It is important, that coordination of the drawing allows the ideal way for the social media era, and it is easy to easily digest on digital platforms. According to the economistThe average SNL via online clips is about 216 million views for each episode on Tiktok, X and YouTube. Certainly, these viewers are not seen directly, but the content is undoubtedly lived.

Previously attempts to translate the United States often are often struggled at night to the United Kingdom.

However, in the eighties of the last century, on Saturday, Live – which was later renamed Night Night Live – ran for four seasons and helped the professions of Ben Elton, Harry Infield, Stephen Fry and Rick Maayel, while The Channel 4’s the 11 gave a show by Riki Gervis and Sacha Baron Cohen.

For veteran British comedy producer Jimmy Molville, presented by Hat Trick Productions, including, have you got news for you and whose line is anyway?

“If Sky gets this correctly, they will create new stars, and among them they can show other shows with these artists,” he explains. “These offers can be great, they can continue for years, and they can show a new talent all the time.”

The producers will need to collect the appropriate team from the book and the performance artists.

يقول مولفيل ، الذي شارك في استضافة المطلعين على المطلعين: “إذا تم إنتاجه جيدًا ، فلا يوجد سبب لمعرفة سبب عدم نجاحه”.

He recently took the display of the Long Topical Panel from the BBC, have you got news to the United States, where it was assigned the second season by CNN. It is recalled that one of the American talent agents warned that the offer was “very British” to work through the blessing.

“I said, yes, but I will write it by the Americans and the Americans perform it to the Americans.”

The opposite will be true for SNL. “In the United Kingdom, it will be written by British writers with British artists for a British audience. So it is no longer an American show.”

In fact, “Live from London” will not be sufficient on its own to succeed, and SNL UK will need to feel like a real British comic creation and not just a restored imitation of an American strike.
