Incest twins was pretty good, best silly sketch in a while. Our Boys was a strong second for best one of the night. I like McKinnon’s ghost story but that character is already starting to have diminishing returns. Solid episode all around, Liev was fine.

It was so bad that I may never watch again. I'm not even sure how I got into the habit of watching all the time

Other than the thanksgiving song sketch that was one of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen maybe.

I didn't think it was as terrible as y'all did. Weekend Update was below averager and the whole back half was bad but the Fox News open was fine, as were the Amazon and RBG pretaped bits and even the clueless dad sketch. And I thought the space station sketch was one of the better silly ones they've done since this season. And Keenan stole an otherwise weak Update; he's so good whenever he rolls up a chair there. I'd give the episode a C, with one particularly good sketch, several okay to middling, and a few bad ones. Not one to brag about but not awful either.
So far the Seth Meyers' episode has been the best of the year. Clare Foy from The Crown hosts next week's. I don't watch that show so I had to look her up.

That NASA skit slayed me. That was absurdly hilarious and I loved it.
