I had not seen that, the list I saw still said TBA. I'm good with it.
I more than halfway expect McCarthy to do a stop by this month though. She's popular there and has a summer movie to promote so...

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I loved the 80s Music Video skit, and the Friendos skit made me lol a few times too ("Lambo!"). The rest of it felt pretty tired despite Glover putting forth a great effort. The best takeaway was that "This Is America" is an awesome song, and I'm looking forward to a Childish Gambino album for the first time in my life.

Three other random thoughts:

1. Chris Redd and Heidi Gardner were both great hires and are already paying dividends.

2. Michael Che's "Pass" joke on Kanye West was a retread of David Spade's "No, it's too easy" joke during The Hollywood Minute like 25 years ago.

3. The "retarded" joke during the Dirty Talk skit sure was timely, eh RM?
