If it happens and it’s important Saturday Night Live is probably going to mock it. Your situation or drama is not official until the cast of SNL gets a hold of it.
So you knew that the power outage at the Super Bowl would get it’s chance on SNL. Per USA Today, the episode focused on the performance of the CBS crew during the outage, while making fun of studio hosts James Brown, Dan Marino, Bill Cowher and Shannon Sharpe.
The impressions were not perfect, but the idea, and the premise of what happened was spot on.

Bill Cowher once had three straight non-playoff seasons yet retained his job as head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers and later won a Super Bowl. In six seasons as Cowher’s replacement, Mike Tomlin has made the playoffs four times and has advanced to two Super Bowls, winning one.

More people were using MySpace than Facebook, banks didn’t need bailouts and Bill Cowher was still the Pittsburgh Steelers coach.
The 2005 and 2006 NFL drafts were the Steelers’ last two under Cowher, and they continued to stock their roster with players who would contribute to Super Bowl teams.
Three months after winning Super Bowl XL, the Steelers drafted...

Even though we were almost a full week removed from the Super Bowl, Saturday Night Live could not let the blackout (and CBS's coverage) go unspoofed. We were treated to a fairly brilliant cold open during this past week's episode. Keenan Thompson as James Brown really steals the show here. It is a mix of trying to mask his own panic while trying to keep everyone else'...

During last week’s Super Bowl, it was obvious that CBS had no idea how to handle the unexpected blackout that came just minutes after the halftime show. The analysts didn’t know how to break down what happened just minutes into the third quarter and sideline reporters Steve Tasker and Solomon Wilcots had no answers for why the blackout occurred. Bill Cowher even resorted to talking...

Before the Super Bowl, Saturday Night Live did a great job of mocking Ray Lewis, and this time, the Super Bowl Blackout was on a tee for them to do a skit about it. For their opening segment on Saturday night, they spoofed CBS and their crew stationed on the field for the game.Kenan Thompson did another great job, this time imitating Jim Brown perfectly, but the real winner here...
