Re: Saturday Night Live
That bit was the biggest laugh of the night for me. I knew his monologue wouldn't disappoint. I like Mulaney's standup best in 10-15 minute bursts instead of over an hour.dad wrote:The bit during his monologue about his grandmother...I was hollering!
The big musical production was good but nothing could compete with the unexpected shock & awe, and that they pulled it off so well, of the lobster bisque first one. I'd be okay if they retire that idea when he hosts again. The Birds & Headless Horseman though was pure silly fun. The pre-taped bits were fine but forgettable. I guess the memes skit was the weakest but still had a couple chuckles.
That makes sense regarding Aidy and Cecily, wasn't Keenan getting his own show?

Re: Saturday Night Live
Does SNL have a full week to write this shit? Seems more like 30 minutes (that hail storm bit seems like it should have been the first rejected or at least the one they aired at 12:42)

Re: Saturday Night Live
So obviously I got the schedule wrong.
Chappelle's monologue had to of run long. With the Notre Dame-Clemson going late the episode felt rushed. The first real sketch was pretty good, in part because of the breaks. Other than that I thought the sketches were pretty average. The one with the OJ footage was a one joke premise but it was a pretty good joke but I think it would have played better on Weekend Update. Speaking of Update the giddiness there was palpable. Weekend Update felt shortened for time, which was a shame since it felt like it was the best one of the season with some great parting lines for Trump.

Re: Saturday Night Live
The monologue and the first skit were fantastic. The rest of the episode was fine to bad. The Mario bit was fucking terrible. A couple of great moments in Update. I agree that it all felt rushed and hobbled overall. But I was in such a good mood that I just didn't take care.
Would love to see Baldwin retire the Trump roll in Jan. Have him take off the wig and such on air and set it aside never to return.
