Interesting to see the contrasts, in comments. Over here in the UK we never saw the SNL episode, just the aftermath in the newspapers and frankly, that was the only time I ever gave SO'C any credibility. Couldn't stand her music. *g*
We knew that allegations had been made, and were continuing to be made, and my general reaction was 'yeah, can see why she did that, fair enough' and I don't actually know anyone who condemned her for it. (I am not Catholic but half my family are - but Italian and not Irish, or they might have had more to say about it.)
The Father Ted stuff I just took as being an easy target, and in context an obvious one. Almost every guest character there was a nutter of some sort AND obviously mocking at least one real celebrity of similar type, so one based on SO'C didn't seem like it was solely and specifically aiming to hurt her.
