That open was clunky as fuck. Like the video guys forgot how to switch cameras.

I just watched this today ... and daft, you be trippin.

My takeaway is that first of all, Rock did plenty to get his points across and for me it was well taken.

Second of all, maybe he has actually looked in to the Breonna Taylor case (or any other specific case) and has drawn his own conclusions based on the information he read. Maybe he even had the audacity to believe that the audience might - not sure if you’re ready for this - make up their own minds about it as well, rather than him telling you what to think.

:idea:

If Chris Rock wants to go in TV and opine about this stuff, fine. He can do whatever he wants. But as an entertainer to choose not to isn’t a “swing and a miss.” Come on.

Yeah, another disappointing episode all around.

The VP debate sketch this week was a huge upgrade over last week's Pres debate sketch.

This was a vast improvement over episode one. I really enjoyed this episode. Couple of clunky bits on balance it was a lot of fun.
