Re: Saturday Night Live
I thought the Democratic debate was fine but the next three sketches were pretty good. They've done material similar to Black Charades before but I still liked it. I was expecting a drag queen storytelling type sketch when they opened at the library so I was surprised to see it go in a different direction. Pete Davidson in drag made for the best Chad pre-taped bit yet. Update was pretty largely because of the slide ups; I think that was the first significant air time for new player Chloe Fineman. She doesn't even have a headshot up yet on the NBC site even though she's been a featured player all season.
Justin Beiber was fine as musical guest but didn't show up at all otherwise. I was wondering if that would be the case after his disaster of a hosting job a few years back. I would have liked to have been a fly on the wall though with any conversation he might have had with Pete during the week though.
Speaking of Pete he looked pretty good pretty good overall but he played Tom Steyer, really?

That was truly one of the worst SNL episodes I have ever seen in my life.

Re: Saturday Night Live
Oh yeah; John Mulaney hosts the next new one on the 29th. His first two gigs were both among the better ones of their season.

Re: Saturday Night Live
I didn't think this past week's was as good overall as his first two times but I'd say Mulaney's 3-3 as a host.

Re: Saturday Night Live
I didn't think it was that bad. Daniel Craig seemed to be having a blast, it always helps when you have a competent host who's obviously enjoying themselves. Kate McKinnon had a good night too, despite barely containing a few giggles in a couple sketches. They all loved Elizabeth Warren. Not a great episode but not the worst either.

Re: Saturday Night Live
Embarrassing episode. Jesus Christ someone put this pathetic show out of its misery.
Craig is a great host. It's painful watching him have to slum it with this material.
The Weeknd killed it. "Blinding Lights" is a great song. I'm excited for the new album.
