Great:

Day, Fineman, Gardner, Sherman, do not destroy, weekend update, the commercials (generally)

Ok:

Dismukes, Johnson (Trump amazing, otherwise meh), Nwodim (beautiful), Thompson (how the fuck is he still doing this? he doesn't bother me though), maybe Yang

Dreadful:

Hernandez (no range, same bit every sketch),  Longfellow, Wickline (holy nepotism), Wakim, Padilla, maybe Yang

Pretty much agree. There are a handful of cast members who automatically get the fast forward treatment from me, and I don't think that's ever been the case before. And they seemingly want to feature all of them as much as possible.

Padilla is the best looking cast member now so I guess she has that going for her. 
 

The whole thing feels like a license to steal. Every week is another half ass, mailed in effort unless there’s a great host.

There's always good and bad cast members...just the last decade had more bad than good ones.

 

I think this current cast is pretty decent overall, just as SNL is pretty decent overall...good highs, some lows...but MUCH Better than most of the last decade plus worth of SNL IMO.

There’s a new 4 part documentary on SNL on Peacock and it’s really good. The episodes cover casting, the process of putting on the show, a whole episode solely on the making of The Cowbell skit and, finally the debacle of season 11

Just on the first episode (Hey, Joe Piscopo!) and I love how they have the cast members watch and comment on their own auditions.
