He didn’t seem to care last time. 
 

Hope he isn’t neutered …

I was taking the cold open only. I think Burr will do his usual shtick and make fun of the extreme ends of both sides. He’s very in the center. Almost certainly why he got this gig the Saturday after the election.

Which is good. The rest of SNL, especially weekend update, will be trashing the right as normal, and in morning.  
 

Don’t mind a guy who’s not afraid to take jabs at both. 

[billfromlaketravis 11817]

Thank God. They still have a sense of humor. 

[billfromlaketravis 11817]

Burr is killing. Wow. We were laughing so hard we could barely hear him.

He's a comedian.

That's it.

NSIAP - Burr's open

 

[boilerhorn 1621]

The Janitor made me laugh.

 

[Red Five 41703]

I felt like the audience wasn't really in the mood for Burr's brand of comedy in the monologue.

They will be next week for Brat Summer! 

[bschoolprof 6341]

I thought the cold open was pretty weak and uncreative.

I loved the monologue. The female guitarist that plays the white guitar never once cracked a smile. She was not amused. Other band members were laughing.

Other than tits, worst/shortest monologue in recent memory? The Please Don’t Destroy Allstate commercial was much funnier.

Charli XCX has been way better in the sketches than I ever would’ve guessed. This second song is an auto-tuned mess.

So the Allstate commercial was the Please Don’t Destroy video? Man, that was brief.

Baldwin as RFK jr. was

[billfromlaketravis 11817]

Sigh, why is Dana Carvey still hanging around? The Church Lady sketch was brutally unfunny despite having ample material to use. They brought Spade back for that piece of shit sketch. 
 

Pretty forgettable episode. Every joke was about how some unknown actor is really hot. 

[4th&Five 41984]

Awful episode. Even update had gotten bad. 

[billfromlaketravis 11817]

Chris Rock has a very weird vibe right now. Those writing meetings must have been a blast. Rock writing each sketch, and making every single joke about race is a move.

This was the worst episode in years. 

[Red Five 41703]

That was rough. I like Sarah Sherman more than I do most of my family, and I couldn't get through that cold open.

Agreed. That was a beating, and I usually let SNL get away with some shit. No Do Not Destroy. It was missed.

Was there a joke swap?

There's a new episode this week, so I assume it will happen then.

[jimmyjazz 47127]

WTF happened to Chris Rock?  I just watched that episode.  Painful.

Getting slapped did a number on him? Dunno.

[aggie08 21792]

I mean this with all sincerity but...is it possible he had a minor, undisclosed stroke?

His acting has always been rough, but that was...something.

Oh I thought this was the last one.  Thanks.

[RPM 26614]

It was not good. Rock still has a young voice, but his body is aging terribly.

Not a terrible start.

That was great. 

[4th&Five 41984]

With Scarlett there, awesome. 

[billfromlaketravis 11817]

I love Hozier’s second song. Well done.

Ah man, when did Tom Hanks get old old?

Made the same comment to my wife. COVID did a number on him.

When he stopped taking adrenochrome?

Also, I now realize I missed a lot of SNL in the 2000s/2020s.

Like this.

Excellent choice going with Martin Short. Everyone brought their A Game. WU Joke Challenge was a 10.
