Why doesn't Comedy Central air any Saturday Night Live reruns from the 80's? I haven't seen any early 80's episode in years. Comedy Central has the right to season 6-26. This is the last year they have the rights to the show. Why don't they showcase there entire library in this the last year. Do I have to wait for it move to E! next year.

Between E! and Comedy Central, you can watch Saturday Night Live reruns from 1975-80, 89-02.

PS: I am glad to see the first five seasons on TV again. It had been to long.

That kind of annoys me, too. I've seen some of the earlier ones, and they're a lot funnier than the ones CC usually shows.

Yeah, maybe next year when it comes to E!, I wonder how E! is going to air all 25 plus seasons. Right now SNL has 3 timeslots on E!. I hope it has more next year. I hope the first five seasons will always have there own time slot.

That is what they should do for all of the seasons. Give a timeslot that will just air episodes from certain seasons. 1975-80, 80-85, 85-95, etc.
