Pelataunt was awesome, with the follow up of the Gorilla Glue lawsuit was great.

My wife informed me that it was inspired by real events. And the lady has 5 kids and runs a daycare.

    Yeah, Eddie's imitation of Tracy Morgan standing next to Tracy Morgan was next level.

i missed the cold open, but there were crickets during the impeachment jokes during WU...i literally think it was too soon lol 

Regina King is funny. i've never seen her in a comedy, she's got good timing.

She's amazing not in the Scary Movie series . Back-to-back SNLs where the hosts commit to the sketches, after Krasinski surprisingly just kind of showed up. Makes a huge difference.

oops there's multiple black Reginas

She was also excellent in Southland. Very underrated series overall.

You mean Regina Hall? Was that part of the joke a couple weeks ago?

I didn’t care for last night’s episode, I thought it was really weak. Even my favorite part Weekend Update was not good. 

It was a subpar W/U for sure, as has been the case for many weeks lately which is strange given all the parody material with which they have to work.  

She was a great host, committed to every sketch.  But writing sucked as usual as did the cast-written sketches/pre-records

Yeah, it sucked.  Felt like Regina Hall could've been funny as shit and was wasted with bad writing.

The skit where she's opening up the gifts of decorative signs that get progressively worse and darker was funny.  I laughed at the gorilla glue skit as well.

The whole thing was mostly great.  We laughed a lot.

no idea who the host was...but he also committed 100%. 

Texas featured a bunch...and everybody hates Ted Cruz 😄

WU was better this week.

Watch Bridgerton. He popped on screen last night, and my wife couldn’t help but wax poetic for a good half hour about how he is easily the sexiest man alive.

I’d have argued with her if I could. That dude has it going on, and I’m guessing he ain’t hurting for dates. And he owned it and had fun with it, which actually made for a decent episode.

But the fact that they did 78 different jokes about Cruz...that was good.

Yeah it was actually a pretty well done episode.  The first time my wife said "I want to watch the whole show".  And then she was annoying the whole time.

The Murder Show song was legit. Hits way too close to home.

Another good show IMO. The final sketch, with Jonas and McKinnon flirting at the bar, is one the SNL haters would probably make exhibit A why the show is awful, but it's exactly why I still love it. Not the funniest sketch of the night or anything, but it's just silly and uncomfortable and the cast doesn't care, they have fun with it.

One of the better shows of the season. You can tell when the host has actual talent and gaf.

My wife: “yep, I’ve watched all of those”

Maya Rudolph hosting. The Beyonce hot wing skit was legit funny af. NFT bit wasn't bad. WU fell off fast. Kubrick bit was good. C+ show.

Loved the Kubrick bit was great.  Always liked Maya but she was woefully underutilized.  One of the great all-around talents and writing was just garbage for her this week.  RPM is right about W/U.  Maybe the best joke of the year was the bit about not knowing the difference between kissing and assault and then the whole last half of Update was just awkwardly unfunny.  

I have high hopes for Daniel Kaluuya next week, seems like he's got some range.  Two weeks from now it's Carey Mulligan whom I've never understood the fascination with.  She appears to have 3 settings:  Mopey, Brooding, and Broodingly Mopey.  

all the pre-recorded videos were pretty funny, 'boomers got the vax' was lol... and the live skits all still seemed kinda awkward.

Only laugh I got was the names of the hot peppers. Hitlers Penis and Satan's Diarrhea.

i kept saying the GF, "they've been off for 4 weeks and this is the best they can come up?"  cold open was bad.  monologue was bad.

Beyonce Hot Wings and Boomers got the vax were brilliant.  i didn't see the Kubrick skit so i'll need to check that out.  everything else was underwhelming.

Last nights episode was really good imo and one  of the better ones In the last 5 years or so. Daniel Kaluuya was great as host.

 

 

Never heard of Kaluuya before but he was a great host. They gave Gaetz no quarter.

Damn, you never watched "Get Out?"  Or more recently "Judas and the Black Messiah?" 

He's a great actor and those were great movies.  The latter is currently on HBO Max.  Not sure about "Get Out."

i couldn't tell you why but the Titanic Iceberg on WU seriously cracked me up 😂😊

Best sketch of the night.

Because it was hilarious! Love Bowen Yang.

i watched it again to see if it really was as funny as i thought the first time. it was. 

 "...and suddenly there's this...Irish cacophony behind me...full-on Riverdance..." 😂

W/U, and that Iceberg bit in particular, were damn funny.  The wartime correspondence and lesbian period piece (which I think were back to back IIRC) were laugh out loud for me.  First half of the show was awful except for a few minutes of that teenage nerd crush sketch.  Looks like they're taking several weeks off again before the last run in May.

I don’t understand the SNL cast sneering at Elon Musk hosting the show this week. SNL has a problem that they think more of themselves than they should. They definitely don’t bring business people as hosts very often but is it really any different than when a sports figure hosts?

with that being said, I don’t think Elon will be that good of a host but the success is more dependent on the writers not him.

I will rephrase for you.  Elon musk is hosting SNL. The cast has said they don’t like it. I don’t understand why they think the show is somehow above him.

I haven't seen or heard anything about the cast one way or the other. Link?

The cast has acknowledged that they will appear in sketches with fake billionaires, but not real ones.  Somewhat honorable.

The show has forced cast members to appear with misogynist assholes like Martin Lawrence and Andrew Clay.  Lying assholes like Lance Armstrong.  Habitual date rapist, Steven Seagal.  And another racist asshole who has had 26 women allege sexual misconduct against him.  But appear briefly with a rich guy in an episode that will likely be start-to-finish sketches poking fun at him?  Oh no, that's just a bridge too far.  

None of these principled protectors of societal good had a problem when Adam Sandler hosts.  He's worth a half billion.  Everybody was excited to work with Eddie Murphy and his quarter billion.  Maybe they had goodwill because they're SNL alums?  Frequent host Tom Hanks and his third of a billion is always welcomed at 8H.  As is Tom Brady's quarter billion.  Put out a policy statement from the cast and writers on what the exact limit of net worth is.  Once you go above it, you can't host SNL anymore.  Yeah, that should really help wealth inequality in the country.   

Broke: SNL sucks because Aidy Bryant and co. Aren’t very funny

Woke: SNL is principled and of and for the people; support them even if they fail in their charter (to be funny), because this fight is important.

So the cast, namely Yang and Bryant, are disgusted by Musk's immense wealth? This is like NBA players bitching about how much the owners are worth.
