Unavailable on home video for many years (except perhaps as a grainy, nth-generation VHS bootleg), Penelope Spheeris' seminal document of the young 1979-1980 Los Angeles punk scene includes chaotic live performances by now-legendary groups like Black Flag (with short-lived lead singer Ron "Chavo Pederast" Reyes), X (giving themselves stick-and-poke tattoos) and the Germs (whose unpredictable lead singer Darby Crash would commit suicide before the film's release) interwoven with talking-head interviews with teenage punks and, most entertainingly, older club owners trying very hard to describe a growing form of music they were clearly unprepared for. The footage of Fear's confrontational set would later grab the attention of John Belushi, who snagged the band a 1981 appearance on Saturday Night Live (and resulted in $20,000 in damage to the studio). - Tom Fritsche

The third (and seemingly final) installment in Penelope Spheeris' Los Angeles music trilogy, THE DECLINE OF WESTERN CIVILIZATION III follows not the punk acts of Los Angeles from 1996-1997 but their homeless teenaged fans. Musician interviews in this DECLINE are fewer but include interesting musings from Keith Morris from the Circle Jerks and Flea (credited as the "ex-bass player of Fear"). DECLINE III lives up to its title as Spheeris explores every facet of the gutter-punk life, from their damaged upbringings (nearly all were abused or neglected as children) to the self-destructive lives they lead on society's fringe (alcoholism, homelessness and run-ins with skinheads, among others). - Tom Fritsche

The Decline of Western Civilization Part II: The Metal Years is a documentary film directed by Penelope Spheeris about the Los Angeles heavy metal scene from 1986 to 1988.

《周六夜现场 Saturday Night Live》的长期固定环节《周末新闻播报 Weekend Update》将会再次登陆黄金时段，NBC宣布预订该环节的半小时版本，在夏季播出四集，于美国时间8月10日9点档首播。（过去在08﹑09﹑12年时就试过。） 　　该版本仍然由Colin Jost及Michael Che负责，而且会有《周六夜现场》其他主持出现，饰演各种角色。（先前官方自吐糟说只负责10分钟却拿其他主持一样薪水的梗用不了。）

主持人尼禄弗格森提出疑问，为何发源于15世纪的欧洲文明能够统治世界的其他地区，以及西方文明今后是否会被其他文明追赶上。同时，弗格森揭示了西方文明之所以如此风靡的“必杀技”。包括竞争、科学、有产阶级民主、现代医学、消费者社会、新教工作道德等等因素。最后弗格森得出了一些惊人且挑衅的结论。同时，他还认为，东方正在迅速崛起，即将飞速的取代西方，我们一起来看一下这些结论吧！
