      @@tsnovak20 Because all *SNL* does is push their anti-conservative political viewpoints on their audience and calls it ✌️comedy✌️. Hollywood is now full of morons who don't understand that people don't want their political opinions. Their sole job is to entertain the masses, and they can't even do that. It was pretty amusing to hear Ricky Gervais call out his fellow _'entertainers'_ on this for both the dying golden globes and oscars.

So, as funny as the scripts might have been, they were made 10 times as funny with the natural way they said the lines and reacted to the lines.

    These family sketches are like little one act plays; the quality of the writing is like that of fine theatre.

    Midge’s hair reminds me of Sylvia Fine’s hair style from The Nanny. Joanne Woodward looks gorgeous at 46 years old! My favorite movie with Joanne Woodward is “The Three Faces of Eve”. No wonder she won the Oscar for her performance, she was phenomenal! Truly a beautiful woman who stayed married to the same man for 50 years! A class act!

One explanation -- other than the likely one that the writers just wanted to bring the character back without explanation and hoped viewers would forget -- is that Thelma's funeral in the special was supposed to take place at some unspecified date in the future, and Mama's Family just hadn't reached that point in time yet.

    😄 Ol’ Eunice really put the fear of God into Ed and Mama at the end! Her expressions are priceless. And what a treat to see the great Joanne Woodward in a guest comic role. Hilarious but touched with that little bit of pathos/sadness, like all the ‘Family’ sketches. Eunice just wanted an evening of fun, but her friend gets driven off by the reality she is sadly stuck with. They don’t make quality sketch comedy like this anymore. Long gone.

    I loved watching these as a kid, I'll never forget that big old brown TV set and my brother, sister and I sitting around it. I think I liked TV shows from back then way more than today. The Carol Burnett show, Laverne & Shirley, Three's Company, Gilligan's Island I Love Lucy and The Golden Girls to name a few. I know they're all from different time periods but watching them in reruns is so relaxing brings me back to when times were good in the world.
