I am guessing that someone in production had a unsatisfactory experience

All those delayed flights on UX to CLE. Thanks SNL for reminding us LGA<->CLE is being terminated later this month.

Funny skit, but I for one, am going to miss UA flights from LGA to CLE.

David Byrne of the Talking Heads. I saw a bunch of their concerts in the 80s, and they were great live.

Oh wow he was the musical guest! I haven't seen it yet. Can't wait.

Edit to add: This was certainly no Talking Heads from the good ole days. Just weird.

I wonder if SNL knew the UA CLE route was going away.
