Which season of Saturday Night Live was the greatest of all time? In this episode of High and Low Retrospective, we go deep into the season that redefined late-night sketch comedy—featuring a legendary cast, breakout sketches, cultural moments, and a creative high point that hasn’t been matched since.

We break down: The cast that made it iconic, the cultural and political backdrop, the sketches that still live rent-free and why this season still resonates decades later.
