James Austin Johnson is a fantastic Trump. but Shane would definitely pop, and his Trump is hysterical. we know Maya will be Kamala. big question is who will play Walz and Vance. i don't think those have been announced, unless i missed it (which is entirely possible). Certainly sucks for JAJ’s career, and honestly I’m not sure what else he does well on the show. Straight men/white guys are a dime a dozen. JAJ might have some trouble locating his agent today. That said, Gillis is the right choice. Bringing in the big guns for the 50th Anniversary/presidential election year.
September 26, 20241 yr I think Gaffigan is the best idea I’ve heard for Walz. Vance will probably be Mikey Day or some such.

September 27, 20241 yr why on earth would they bring in someone else to play Trump? JAJ is absolutely incredible at it...is he too good? it's def felt like uncanny valley a few times...🤔

Shane’s Trump is more theatrical and will play better on TV. Jamie Foxx’s Trump is also amazing, but it’s more in the WTF category. Edited September 28, 20241 yr by billfromlaketravis
September 29, 20241 yr My bad Shane fans. Belloni said JAJ wasn’t coming back as Trump. My best guess is that they thought they had Shane on the hook, and he bailed. He’s on tour right now, so I’m not surprised his dates didn’t line up.
September 29, 20241 yr Holy shit Dana CarveyHow much better was that than everything else they’ve tried recently.
September 29, 20241 yr I think Gaffigan is the best idea I’ve heard for Walz. Vance will probably be Mikey Day or some such. Close?
September 29, 20241 yr Dana was probably the best Biden so far but, man, I’m getting tired of the old jokes.
September 29, 20241 yr Missed the opener last night but just watched it and thought it was very good. Yang as Vance seems like a weird pick but everyone else nailed it.

September 29, 20241 yr I didn’t like the cold open, but the rest of the show was pretty good. Spirit Halloween and Weekend Update were hilarious.

Removing the bulletproof glass when Trump left the stage, exposing Vance was FAF. To me it didn't matter whether Yang was a good fit for the character, because Vance is always cringy anyways. Thought the show was good for a change, and I'm not into the newest cast.

I thought the irony of having a gay Asian guy portray a chud from Appalachia was funny all on its own lol. The fact that they both wear eyeliner is just a cherry on top

September 30, 20241 yr Maya Rudolph as Harris is spot on. Close your eyes and just listen. She has it town perfectly.
September 30, 20241 yr I don't know where this Jelly Roll character came from or why he's suddenly unavoidable, but I have a strong suspicion that he was created by a marketing agency similar to how the Sex Pistols were just a marketing stunt designed to capture and replicate (and profit from) a certain vibe.

October 1, 20241 yr I like that Jelly Roll stood up like a man and admitted he had fallen and made terrible mistakes. I like that he’s campaigned for opiate treatment and passionately addressed Congress to fix it. I don’t like that he’s admitted to being an addict, but regularly drinks and smokes weed. If addiction is a disease, it should be taken seriously. It also send a a shitty message to young people. Don’t do certain drugs kids. i really wouldn’t give a shit what he looks like if he were a better singer. Stapleton and a host of others are better vocalists. That said, I enjoyed his second song on SNL and thought he did well above average as a musical guest.
October 1, 20241 yr So, Stevie Nicks will be musical guest on Oct. 12. please, please, please can we have Fajita Roundup Redux?
