I thought Jost was ok. And the SAS impression is hilarious, i cry laughing every time he does that. It's perfect.
Cecily Strong is hot, dont get me wrong. And the gal they brought on midway through this season is absolutely smoking.

I mean Stephen A Smith is a tired gag at this point but the audience wasn't even reacting cos Jost couldn't play off with him.
I've only seen him on ESPN maybe 2 or 3 times ever and I still think the bit is hilarious. Pharoah kept mugging at Jost as if to say "Really, dude? I can't get anything out of you?"

I have absolutely no idea who Stephen A Smith actually is and the bit is still funny

Ive been unfortunate enough to see Smith a million times and i can tell you that this thing is dead on, and hilarious.

I wonder if the Lonely Island guys cringe when the current cast tries to do a Lonely Island song a'la the Dongs thing. The new cast even structure the songs similarly, use some of the same rap tropes (e.g. the list thing of "9pm - do a thing. 10pm - do another thing"), and deploy celeb guests from music and film - but they really don't have any of the unexpected twists or surreal touches.
― Walter Galt, Tuesday, 8 April 2014 13:51 (ten years ago) link
Dongs was ok, I think the cast sold it well, but it was blatant Lonely Island...especially when they did the counting thing for sure.
Mooney's flirting video however, was A+++
― dan selzer, Tuesday, 8 April 2014 20:16 (ten years ago) link
That's two weeks in a row I've enjoyed a Kyle Mooney thing. I'm still reluctant to say I've turned the corner on him, but I feel okay walking back my contempt a few steps.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 8 April 2014 20:18 (ten years ago) link
I thought the Brooks Whelan butter down the pants story was funny, but I have no idea what it was doing on Weekend Update. That guy's actually a strong comic by all accounts, but he's probably got no business being on SNL.

Bailed after Update. Worst episode of the season so far, except for Strong freaking out in the dog food ad. Rogen's doing his lines like it's a table read.

Yeah, I don't understand why so many people hate the guy. He's one of the best castmembers SNL's got.

Prbly remembering All That bathtub skit. (I think he's hilarious now).

At this point, I don't care if Nasim Pedrad stays or goes if all she's going to do is Shallon sketches. In fact, if that's all she's going to do, I'd prefer she leave.
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 14 April 2014 15:55 (ten years ago) link
Aside from the French guy and Deep House Dish, I love Kenan.

Kenan's great, totally growing into a Phil Hartman-type role in the overall cast

I'm really getting sick of Vanessa Bayer being in nearly every single sketch. Is she turning into Lorne's new favorite?
― an enormous bolus of flatulence (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Monday, 14 April 2014 17:14 (ten years ago) link
Keenan is great, and one of the only SNL cast members who makes laughing at his own absurdity pretty charming. Has he ever done Rick Ross and not cracked himself up?
― Josh in Chicago, Monday, 14 April 2014 17:16 (ten years ago) link
I think Bayer's great in some roles -- loved Jacob tearing up about Jeter's retirement.
But when she's not the focus of the sketch, she doesn't add anything. Whereas McKinnon, say, completely killed in the Shallon sketch with one line ("I'm going to my car to call a man").
― Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Monday, 14 April 2014 17:25 (ten years ago) link
waht I've never seen Kenan do Rick Ross >:(

I think he's a quality veteran, but more along the lines of Kevin Nealon. Phil Hartman was, er, a genius

For a season finale episode, even with numerous cameos, that was pretty flat from beginning to end. It was a weak way for Nasim to go out too, playing Kim Kardashian for the thousandth time.
― Johnny Fever, Sunday, 18 May 2014 05:37 (nine years ago) link
This was her last episode? That's a shame, and a waste. Kim bit was pat and obvious, and way beneath her abilities.
― Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Sunday, 18 May 2014 05:55 (nine years ago) link
She's on Mulaney's Fox sitcom, so I imagine she's leaving SNL. Nothing "official" has been said, though.

Holy shit, didn't know Martin Short was gonna be on that! He was on tonight's SNL, right? I missed the cold open and monologue, but saw him in the goodbyes.
― Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Sunday, 18 May 2014 06:42 (nine years ago) link
He just did a little bit in the monologue...hardly anything at all, unfortunately.
