SNL 45

[RPM 26322]

So the rapist was offended by a joke? Fucks given = 0.

[Guest Lobo]

That’s what you burned your weekly visit for Cosby?  To tell your publicist to go after Eddie Murphy?   Not to talk to your kids or your wife, for this shit?   You small, small man.  I hope you get shived tomorrow.  

Neighborhood and jeopardy skits were clever.   I didn’t think the buckwheat one was executed very well   Gumby was the funniest thing all night   And best 10:1 skit and WU of the last few seasons

That was fan service in the best way. Mr Robinson was damn near perfect. Black Jeopardy went a little different direction but they nailed it. Eddie seemed comfortable even when he flubbed a line.

I also always enjoy the Jost/Che surprise reading of each other's jokes. Black cue hard holder LMFAO

Gary Richardson, writer.  He probably wrote the joke and the cue card is fucking funny too if Jost would have had to read it....

[Nice Guy Eddie 13515]

They need to be careful about running through the same gags with the Dem debates.  Less is more. 

I haven't seen the whole show yet but did Eddie make a David Spade joke?

They will never top the Buckwheat was shot arc.

What kind of person was he?

He was a quiet young man. He attended church, and Sunday School. I remember he was always very polite.

Do you think he shot Buckwheat?

Oh yes, that's all he talked about.

----

He was a loner, but a real hard worker. I mean, he pumped the gas, he checked the oil, he washed the windows. Nice kid.

Do you believe he killed Buckwheat?

Oh, yes, definitely. Thats all he talked about. I remember one day I says, uh, Stutts, why are you working so hard? He says, Cause Im saving up to buy a gun, so I can kill Buckwheat.

Not a David Spade joke necessarily but he alluded to that incident by poking fun at Lorne Michaels in the Gumby appearance.

[MissingInAction 25106]

That will suck rhino dicks.

Eddy's return really brought home how far this show has fallen.

[lateshow 1304]

Eddie kicked all kinds of ass. Very clear that he's the most talented performer they've ever had. The dude returns after a 30 year absence and just fucking killed.

Eddie and Will Ferrell are 1 and 2. If we're just talking about time on SNL. Aykroyd probably 3. IMO.

Phil Hartman would like a word...

(but he got shot in the face, so... yeah.)

[RPM 26322]

Don't know how bad this JJ Watt episode is going to suck, but the promo is funny.

 

[Stunns38 3536]

His monologue wasn’t bad.

[RPM 26322]

Monologue was good. Frozen skit was dragging until Olaf showed up. Robbie skit was legit.

JJ's not afraid to go for it.

It was time to waaax. I'm talkin' Mr. Miyagi.

[RPM 26322]

Oil of Brolay.

[TexArcher 37975]

JJ's doing well.

[RPM 26322]

Jared Kushner, who I'm pretty sure played Lube Man in Watchmen...

[mchookem 16336]

my expectations are definitely exceeded. good job JJ

musical guest is horrible 

[RPM 26322]

Voiceover skit is legit lulz.

[Pam Cummings 9645]

The wheelchair kid bit was great. 

[RPM 26322]

The Beast or whatever the fuck that was, was a swing and a miss.

Big Willie's Pizza delivered.

When are the music guests on SNL not horrible?

[BrickHorn 18237]

Not funny overall, but I blame the writing. JJ impressed.  He can act and was much more comfortable on screen than most athlete SNL hosts.

over the decades i have actually 'discovered' a number of musical guests from SNL that i like and end up being a fan of...Gary Clark Jr, Sturgill Simpson, The 1975 and Anderson Pak come to mind most recently.

but dude, that guy suuucked lol

oh, the entire premise of every pizza delivery being a real life porn situation... that was LOL funny...'WHY ain't i making any damn money??' 😂

I've only seen the first half so far, but pleasantly surprised.  His Monologue was pretty good, Frozen was okay, Robbie was legit funny, and him as a Dad talking about Sex was hilarious.  Weekend Update Worked too.

[RPM 26322]

One of the better non-entertainer hosts they've had. Hell, he was better than some of the entertainers that hosted.

[Rabidhorn 121]

I got to Justin (WTF) Bieber first song and shut that crap pile show off, may be the worst half of SNL EVER!!! One note comedy of Rupaul and the no talent supposed singing of a guy that should be working the drive through at Burger King.

[Herpa Derpa 6126]

Oh, Grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days.

You sound old

[Cheeseweasel 26438]

I'm voting for Bernie Sanders because I want to see Larry David every weekend. 

[Texas_Rocks 346]

Say what you want to about Bieber, but that was some quality song writing.

Yeah, you got that yummy, yum
That yummy, yum
That yummy, yummy

Wait until you hear the mashup with “Mmmbop”

[Eskimohorn 5635]

Oh, Grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days.

Beibs looks like he could tell us about the good old days

[Brandywine 1316]

Chloe Fineman’s take on the Oscars on the weekend update was pretty great. She’s so cute, talented and funny. I will say that the last few years the cast as been great overall. Chloe’s a newbie.

She also had a nice Heinie

Ooh love, I love it so
Ooh love, you're sweeter, sweeter than sugar
Ooh love, I won't let you go

Ba, da, ba, da, da, da, da

Sweet thing, yummy yummy

Mulaney needs to host 2x a year.  

David Byrne’s first set was very good.  
 

LaGuardia is the best non-political sketch of the season.  It’s not Diner Lobster, but it’s close. 

[Guest Lobo]

I’ve often wondered what a David Byrne Ted talk would look like, now I know.  Loved it.  Great monologue (haven’t said that in a long while) and weekend update was excellent.  LaGuardia sketch was only funny one of the night after cold opening.  

[TexArcher 37975]

Yeah, the news was solid as always.  The only other funny part was Mulaney's monologue.  SNL's writers can do politics (which is batting practice for satire right now), but that's about it.  I tend to catch the cold open and the news and play with my phone the rest of the time.

Craig, Daniel Craig.

I can't help but think they will have some Bond cameos. Please let there be Celebrity Jeopardy with Sean Connery.

I doubt the writers want to have Sean Connery insulting a man with stage IV pancreatic cancer.

[Guest Lobo]

It's not insulting.  Trebek has said before he loves those skits.  

I mean, that cancer bit was not my thing...too edgy.  But that one guy really seemed to like it.  

He HAD cancer!

And laughter is the best medicine. 

[bluto 4932]

Rachel dratch wasn’t ever exactly attractive but she looks 75 years old with false teeth now

[Longhornstampede 3184]

Did the singer for the weekend have a car wreck....or was he channeling Jussie Smollet?

[RPM 26322]

Cold open with Elizabeth Warren was solid. Craig's monologue was good with the NTTD video. Sands of Modesto Corona virus soap opera was funny. Debbie Downer recall was solid. WU was solid. Not a fan of The Weekend, but he didn't suck and did a few cameos. WTF happened to his face? Game night delivered. Overnight Salad was a decent ender. Final score B+. Craig is a solid host.
