All Things SNL

[Dr Dave]

Weekend Update is the one bit of SNL that I like.

Musical guest is the part of SNL I dislike. I'm old and most of today's music sounds like ear garbage.

I'm only gonna say this about tonight's SNL right now: They've finally learned to embrace their own memes...

 

[Mirah]

I don't know the reference

About 20 years ago, Walken was hosting and Foo FIghters were musical guest, and he mangled their name while introducing them. It became a meme in recent years, although I'm having trouble finding it right now...

Season 49 episode 6
Emma Stone joins the 5 timers club with a jacket from Tina Fey and Candace Bergen, however they never make it into the lounge disapointingly, and only mention the special women's section. I want visuals!

Bowen Yang singing: YES! Bowen Yang singing Elton John: YES YES

Noah Kahan musical guest: YES!

Getting my news from Weekend Update: YES

I am currently typing this up 2 days after watching and while on a boat, which I thought would be a lot funner, but its like giving me motion sickness So I'm going to jet for now.
Peace out.

Checking out last night's SNL and enjoying it so far. BUT I'm not going to give a recap, you have to watch it yourself! ALSO.....since I haven't seen Adam Driver's movies since he semms like an angry charactered actor or something I was pre-judging what i thought this SNL would be. He has a frickin sense of humor and I'm diggin it!

I was just about to go to sleep feeling not 100% and then I watched this blurb combing all the Will and Kristen from the golden globes and now I feel completely right

 

[Mirah]

Apparently I have a couple of episodes to catch up on.

 

[Mirah]

Ayo Edebiri is great!

There are rumblings about the cold open-and I realize I never or am rarely ever impressed with any of the cold opens, so i don't expect anything from them.

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

The Wacky will be pleased.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I do love Josh Brolin bonc lol.

Shane Gillis.
Did you watch it or avoid it?
Did you only watch Weekend Update?
I plead the 5th
I saw on twitter (X) someone say he was "actually" funny and that pissed people off
I didn't think so, I mean if I watched it
I also read on twitter (X) during his monologue the girl in the band shooting arrows at him, I had to see for myself
And then the "not handshake" from the musical guest 21 Savage, yeah that happened.
AND then I was curious about Bowen Yang's interactions because everyone (some people) on twitter (X) said "OMG Bowen will probably quit after this"
And Bowen and Shane shared a hug during the closing credits all cast on stage thing and whether it was fake or not it seemed there was something genuine there.
So, I got all of that out of not watching this episode.
I mean, after all Bowen gets to be on SNL every week. EVERY WEEK. And I get to watch it.

I see Oppenheimer is now playing on Peacock, so I'll go watch that now.

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

I didn't watch it, I only saw SM reactions to it. Surprisingly few clips online where I normally see them.

Bowen and Shane were hired at the same time, so they probably bonded over that.

But when I see tweets like this pop up from people I don't follow who normally only tweet about sports, I think I'm glad I didn't watch...

 

[CaptainWacky]

Post relevant clips here so I don't have to watch the episode.

[Mirah]

I don't think I can handle watching this and anything I say will probably not even do it justice. Okay, I'll go watch now.
