Halloween characters at 3am, AA and Update were good.

Tom Hanks is too thin now.

Amy Schumer next week. She'd be down for whatever.

i can't believe she made herself available
Why not? Is she a recluse or something?
i was being sarcastic. she seems like she never passes up opportunities.

Interesting. I do want to see her documentary. While I don’t keep up with her all that much these days, I was a pretty big fan of hers for a while.

Finally finished her episode this morning. She was actually one of my favorite guests even tho they didn’t really talk about SNL that much.

Covid commercial, Twitter sketch both good. Cecily's trucker bit I enjoyed.

Steve Lacey was ok.

I would have thought The 1975 would have been the musical guest this week since they'll be in town.

Indeed. Some of the writers are refusing to work on tonight's show because Chapelle is the host.

Excellent episode; easily the best of the season so far. That might have been my favorite “Trump” in the opener. Other favorites were Black Heaven and the House of Dragons short. Really strong Update and an extended monologue too.
I wonder if any cut for time sketches will come out?

Fun episode.

I’m enjoying the Armisen episode so far. About a third into it. They did say that did get Marcie Klein to be on the show.

Still waiting for Franken…
