Having seen her in all sorts of other material -- Comedians In Cars, interviews, etc -- I think she's just a huge goofball who never really stops being "on." I mean, did you see all the Crayola marker title cards she did, and the artwork on her walls?! I imagine she'd be doing this exact same thing even if no one knew who she was, and I love that about her.LoathedVermin72 wrote:I think as a society we should all agree that it’s time to bury Kate McKinnon somewhere deep beneath the earth so she can never return
This whole episode is like 33% classic SNL, 33% gonzo experiment, 33% guerilla comedy. They're taking actual fucking risks and not fussing over the details. It feels loose and raw in a way the show hasn't felt in many years.

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.
Her Chalamet impression, the bit where Che made Jost read a racist joke because Che's grandma died, and the Beck/Mooney/Armisen song were the only moments in this godawful program that elicited anything other than a cringe. None of them rose to the level of laughterLoathedVermin72 wrote:Omfg this chloe fineman masterclass sketch. I want to fucking die

I'm with you buddy. I love what they achieved in no this modern context. I laughed. I was moved. I'm grateful for this reprieve and example of creative comfort. This is what this show was designed to do. Though flawed it might still be an all time favorite ep. What a genuine joy!tragabigzanda wrote:durdencommatyler wrote:This was legit great.
