p boring episode. their attempts to clown Trump are sad and toothless.

Yeah, real Trump is more outrageous if not "funnier" than Darrell Hammond.

Their attempts to keep Darrell Hammond out of the dressing room and off of the stage are sad and toothless.

Give Darrell his KFC job back and, ffs, give Norm something more dignified to do.

because really, if there's one thing Norm Macdonald has staked his career on, it's dignity

even though there's this weird gay connotation to jay pharoah's ben carson impression it's easily the best of the current ones imo, too bad he's gonna be out of the race soon

Man, no discussion of the Larry David episode?
Or how terrible that first Kanye song was tonight?

Kanye is an awful performer.
Larry David's opening monologue was great last week.

Does Kanye have something going on with him? Seems really off.
― Cornelius Pardew (jim in glasgow), Sunday, 14 February 2016 08:58 (eight years ago) link
I was kind of wondering that myself. Really weird. Second song was better but seemed like he was barely in that.

do you mean physical health-wise? because kanye /always/ has "something going on with him" in some fashion or another

von miller read cue cards/performed better than like 90% of guest hosts

The whole Larry David episode was worth it just to see him in costume in the FBI training sketch.

So the Beyonce taped bit ... is this the second time this season that SNL has lampooned a pop star in the form of an apocalyptic Hollywood thriller? Didn't they do that with The Squad and Taylor Swift? And didn't they also do it with The Beygency?

Goddamn Kanye sucked.

If you, like me, enjoy impressions, check out Jay Pharaoh's appearance on Weekend Update this week. He does Dave Chappelle and Hannibal Burress! I don't think I've ever seen impressions of either guy before, by anyone.
― JRN, Sunday, 6 March 2016 21:15 (eight years ago) link
Yeah that was pretty good. Not the best written bit but fun to watch.

His Chris Rock is nearly perfect. If I'd been in the other room and couldn't see Jay doing it, I'd have thought it was Chris.

Arianna Grande's impression of Jennifer Lawrence is kind of frighteningly good.
― bearded flack trickster god (GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ), Sunday, 13 March 2016 08:42 (eight years ago) link
Right? I'd seen her do most of, if not all, her singing impressions on Fallon before, but she's just really good at impressions all around.
― Ⓓⓡ. (Johnny Fever), Sunday, 13 March 2016 13:57 (eight years ago) link
Wow, you guys weren't kidding. She had the voice dead on.
― JRN, Sunday, 13 March 2016 21:12 (eight years ago) link
she was surprisingly good overall imo
― johnny crunch, Monday, 14 March 2016 23:48 (eight years ago) link
She has a background as a child actress/nickelodeon actress, so not her first time.

does this cast have *any* recurring sketches/sketch characters at this point? All I can think of are the teen girl talkshow thing and boss baby.

just started watching this consistently again for the first time in many many years; this week's episode is the first funny-all-the-way-through episode I've seen in almost forever.
― akm, Tuesday, 15 March 2016 17:12 (eight years ago) link
I just had a conversation last week with my wife about how my favorite part of "The Sound Of Music" is when Maria walks down the aisle to all of the nuns singing shit about her so I loooooooooooooooved the final sketch, even with the cue card flubs.

Thought it might be so, but I've only just begun semi watching, don't know what is called sketches and what isn't. Aidy Bryant as the girl who interrupt porn shoots should be a regular sketch imo. Also, the two ex-porn stars.
Watched the mermaid sketch which wasn't that funny, but Beck Bennett is a really undervalued straight man imo. That won't make you famous, but in this and in the Adam Driver porn star sketch he was outstanding.

think these are both terrible but they are recurring sketches (ive seen at least 2 of the former and 3 of the latter)
