What is your favorite period of SNL?

For me, mine is seasons 37 to 39.

In October of 2012 (when I was 13) I was held up in a condo in Hartsdale, NY trying to escape Hurricane Sandy. During the storm, when we miraculously had power and internet, I watched everything recent episode leading up to that date, and the shows immediately after. I fell in love with Fred Armisen, Jason Sudeikis, Taran Killam, and especially Bill Hader. After the exodus of cast members I lost interest.

What was your favorite period of SNL? How does it reflect the conditions of your life at the time?
