"Hello everyone, I'm so excited to be back and ruin things a second time," David's Sanders says in his opening comments."Last time, my slogan was 'Feel the Bern,' " he added. "This time, it's 'Let's burn this place to the ground.' "
Fuck your little neolib show, guys.

"let's bern this place to the ground" was the only part of Larry David's Bernie that got as much as a mild chuckle from me

Very worrisome, given the powerful and determinative role Saturday Night Live has historically played in presidential elections.

The Rudy Ray Moore/Royal Family skit made me laugh. Kenan Thompson is still the best thing about this show by some distance.

just caught up on the Woody episode, wow what an absolute disaster. that whole show I think the "five boys who play a different sport" line was the only thing that made me laugh

i thought the game show and local news skits at the beginning of this episode were 2 very good renditions of overused SNL rubrics
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 6 October 2019 16:16 (four years ago) link
the opening political sketches are prob some of the most embarrassing "comedy" i've ever seen tho

Bowen Yang's weekend update bit was pretty good.
― Yerac, Sunday, 6 October 2019 16:43 (four years ago) link
cryptosicko otm. Best sketch of the night. But ugh that old-guy news thing was interminable. I would've much rather seen another Heidi Gardner girlfriend-from-a-boxing-movie bit.
And every time I see Matthew Broderick, I can only think of how he killed two people and got off with a $175 fine.

overall not really a good ep imo

More SNL neoliberal crap. They hate Bernie, which is no surprise. This version of the show would be pro-Nixon in '68. https://t.co/nQnkcZJBI6— Dennis Perrin (@DennisThePerrin) October 27, 2019

I really like the proportions of chance the rapper's arms. So weird but I couldn't stop looking at them during the opening monologue.
This was a really bad episode. Everything seemed way underrehearsed.
― Yerac, Sunday, 27 October 2019 14:14 (four years ago) link
Most of the sketches were undercooked or awkward (the flying one was a mess; the physical demands of the bit totally threw off any sense of rhythm or timing), but I thought the graveyard skit was really funny, and Chance was an engaging presence throughout the episode.
― Maria Edgelord (cryptosicko), Sunday, 27 October 2019 14:27 (four years ago) link
yeah he was a good host. musical performances were really good too. again, I was stoned so I found the whole episode amusing enough. the flying sketch started stupid but got funny for some reason.
― akm, Sunday, 27 October 2019 17:31 (four years ago) link
Yeah, every time he's on SNL I end up feeling bad for not being more familiar with his output (though I had "Sunday Candy" high up on my tracks ballot of whichever year that was).
― Maria Edgelord (cryptosicko), Sunday, 27 October 2019 17:48 (four years ago) link
I also gotta say that the set design, lighting, etc for the musical performances has been outstanding this season.

jesus Jost looks like a cast-off from that Fox News attempt at a comedy show
― Muswell Hillbilly Elegy (President Keyes), Monday, 28 October 2019 13:21 (four years ago) link
yeah I was going to say that about the staging for the musical performances. this week, plus camille cabello's set, were pretty impressive.
― akm, Monday, 28 October 2019 14:07 (four years ago) link
Taylor Swift and Billy Eilish had cool staging too, esp BI with that box room that rotated

The gift meat segment had me helpless with laughter, due much more to the delivery of the lines than any greatness in the script.
― A is for (Aimless), Sunday, 3 November 2019 18:07 (four years ago) link
Aidy Bryant is becoming the new Kenan: just her presence and delivery will keep the worst sketch from completely sucking.
― Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Sunday, 3 November 2019 19:15 (four years ago) link
Too little Kenan last night means that I barely laughed at all. On the positive side, because we got well after the show had started last night, we were able to fast forward through Coldplay.

It's interesting that between him and Chance, the best hosts this season have been host/musical guest combos. The "Joan" skit was one of the best things I've seen on SNL in a while; an already funny premise, well executed, that just keeps getting increasingly absurd.
― Maria Edgelord (cryptosicko), Sunday, 17 November 2019 17:53 (four years ago) link
And of course Timberlake has been a go-to as well. Chance is a more interesting hosting phenom, since he's not the product of some boy band triple-threat factory.
― Josh in Chicago, Sunday, 17 November 2019 18:12 (four years ago) link
I laughed a lot during that funeral sketch. And the drug one had some obvious jokes but I also thought it was great. He had a top monologue, not very many of those.
