Weekly SNL thread

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

I thought the Girlfriends sketch was hilarious. ?"YOU should be called Roach Warehouse!"

[wickedfan]

I also loved the somewhat throw-away yet totally hilarious.
"Yeah like Captain Morgan! Remember in the basement? That was crazy!"
"...you have a basement...?"

[YouWantitWhen????]

I actually thought the Romney cold open was pretty sweet by SNL standards. Has some skewing, but really kind of gave props to Romney as a husband and father. After the election we just went through, I thought it was a welcome change.

I thought Anne was fabulous. I loved the monologue and her Stephan impression. Her Katie Holmes is pretty dead on. I liked most of the show except for Rhianna.

Drunk Uncle had me LOL.

[Wynbish]

I still cannot get "Mokiki does the sloppy-swish" out of my head.

[jasonf]

The Mokiki skit was the strangest skit I've seen in a REALLY long time - yet it was somehow completely hypnotizing.

How high was the person who came up with that one?

[Jungle Red]

Overall, I thought it was okay. Loved the monologue and the cold opening, but not much of anything else.

Why was it under an hour?

[SNAFU]

It was it'snormal legnth unless you saw it on HULU. Sometimes music rights or other such things prevent sketches from appearing on Hulu….like the Ellen sketch.

[Jungle Red]

I heard about the Ellen sketch but didn't watch it on Hulu. That's annoying.

[Wynbish]

The Pandora skit from Bruno's episode is not on Hulu, and that was his strongest skit

[FindingNamo]

It's usually the music rights. The Les Miz monologue isn't on the NBC On Demand version. Had to watch it linked on here.

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

Synergy, my ass, Jack Donaghy!

[FindingNamo]

He's trying to bring the network down.

[Jungle Red]

Hulu has the monologue.

How weird would it be to not watch the monologue though?

[CapnHook]

Jamie Foxx is off to a great start with his "How black is that?" monologue.

[Jane2]

But the bitch quiz show wasn't funny

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

It made me laugh. I don't live Jamie Foxx but this has been a decent episode.

[Mr Roxy]

One imagines what an uproar there would be if one word was substituted for another in part of the sketch

The sketch following the bitch sketch was lame as it always is. Time to retire it.

[Wynbish]

This makes me miss In Living Color's Wanda

[SNAFU]

Roxy, where in the world is IN LIVING COLOR?

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

Charlie!

[taboo123]

SNL has lost it. completely.

Why the need for two game show skits (almost back to back)?

although the latter was funnier.

The Ne-Yo performance was actually a highlight for me, surprisingly.

Even Weekend Update was bland.

j-pop. please leave.

and yes Jamie Foxx- we get that you're black. please get over it and move on.

what are the writers smoking these days?
They need new seeds to plant.



I think it's time for an all-stars season for SNL.

Just grab one person from a different era- throw them in a blender and see what you get-
change it up on a weekly basis---bring in your alumni from the past 35 years.

stir it up.....

They should celebrate their upcoming 40th season that way.

[Wynbish]

Next week will be an alum, Martin Short

[SNAFU]

Doncha know!

Want me some Ed Grimley!

[Mildred Plotka]

The crystals sketch, which I know was stupid, made me giggle like a little girl.

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

It was a fine episode. Plus there was some Charlie Day which only added to its luster.

[Tom1071]

"The crystals sketch, which I know was stupid, made me giggle like a little girl."

I agree...For me, that was the best sketch of the night. So far, I am loving Cecily Strong.
