They got a new fat lady.
Chinese guy is least funny cast member in history of show.

SNL is still crushing it after all these years.

I was very disappointed in the episode. I thought it was terrible.
Overall I thought it was pretty solid - enjoyed the chocolate Santa skit, the airplane baby, the two guys "trying" to have a baby.
Thought the cold open was the weakest, they could have gone so much harder at the college prez's

It could have been funnier, but I think they decided to go away from Heidi Gardiner taking a bite of the chocolate.
I was hoping for that, and, she could have pulled something clever off.
I thought the Facebook ad was good, too.
The joke swap is must-see every-time, tonight didn't disappoint...rest of the show was ehhh. Billy Eilish is awesome, but Kate McKinnon is a character actor not a host, needed Maya and Kristen to play-off of.
Colin Jost is as good a straight-man as I’ve seen. He conveys being uncomfortable, embarrassed, and even laughs, but still gets the joke out with great timing.
Che’s a great writer, but he stepped all over the MJ the musical joke, which was excellent.
I love that in this society, that those two, trust and appreciate each other enough to keep this running, dancing on the line and delivering gold.
Che scolding Jost after each racist joke is always the best part. And having Jost try to get a fist bump from Hattie after “Bitches love bringin’ up old stuff” was pure genius.
For fans of old school Saturday Night Live, I recommend checking out yesterday’s (Jan 21) episode of The Al Franken Podcast. His guest is James Downey and they share stories about their time together as writers at SNL, particularly the political sketches they used to write. Downey is one of the most brilliant comedy writers of all time.
I freaking love Vanessa Bayer.
His podcast with Conan, talking about writing for Weekend Update with Norm, was fantastic. He's almost unrecognizable as a frail old man with a moustache now.
These are always good but this is probably the best of all the versions of What’s Up With That. Morgan Freeman’s facial expressions are priceless. I also wasn’t expecting Mary Kay and Villi to make an appearance.
What Up With That?: Morgan Freeman and Ernest Borgnine - SNL

I worked with Chris Kattan last weekend, he was a super nice guy. I always liked him on SNL
I found this hilarious - hitting too close to home for certain females in my life.
The Please Don't Destroy guys and Weekend Update pretty much deliver every week. The rest can be hit or miss.
