How many bad sketches can 1 show take.

 

[King Of Fuh]

Does anyone know the name of the woman who sings with him at the beginning? I've never seen her before, she was great too.

I BELIEVE, looking at my liner notes for Art Official Age, her name is Paloma Ayana, but the notes don't make it clear who did what so I can't say 100%.

Prince released two albums on the same day last month, the other was Plectrum Electrum. If the performance inspired anyone to buy one of the albums, my personal pick is for Plectrum Electrum. Lots of great guitar infused funk-rock, feels raw and full of energy.

 

[Autumn Wind]

Prince's set was like three songs in one. After the girl sang with him in the beginning, did anyone else hear some Led Zeppelin in there because I was reminded of that. Overall, I liked the episode but I'm an SNL fan for the most part.

It's going to be impossible to top Prince's performance this season. He was that good. Now I want to see him live.

 

[Buckethead]

Chris' monologue was awesome and Prince's performance was GOAT.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

I think we can all agree that Prince was the MVP tonight.

The Good Neighbors sketch was quite good too.

Oh, you mean the bank?

(I CAN'T BELIEVE I GOT TO USE THAT IN A REAL SENTENCE. RAFI BOMBBBBBBBBBBB.)

 

[Akahige]

Wow the Rock episode was spectacularly bad.

I think Jost is a dead man walking at this point. Too many sketches that just plain aren't funny.

He's the head writer so I doubt it.

 

[kirblar]

He's the head writer so I doubt it.

That's just it- he's failing both in the back and as an anchor onscreen.

 

[RadioHeadAche]

I wonder if Lorne Michaels ever feels embarasssed for some of the shit that gets aired?

 

[jetjevons]

EP was one of the worst ever. Barely registered a giggle. Did Rock refuse to rehearse or was everyone hung over from Halloween? The card reading was just embarrassing.

It was The Ocean, mixed with a bit of Living Living Maid in there. Straight up Zep!

 

[perfectchaos007]

I guess Che's debut was no fluke, he can't read lines without botching them half the time. Glad he wasn't suspended for his tweets, but he should be suspended for being a poor host.

And SNL is off this week, and frankly I'm not yearning for a new episode after the Chris Rock ep.

 

[Avon Barksdale]

I wonder if Lorne Michaels ever feels embarrassed for some of the shit that gets aired?

He probably does, but he'll never publicly bury his own TV show.

 

[AkuMifune]

So Woody Harrelson and Kendrick Lamar this weekend?

Sweet.

 

[vatstep]

New episode, y'all.

I didn't even realize Woody was in The Hunger Games

 

[The Elite]

This is making me feel old.

 

[kingocfs]

Woody is the fuckin man

 

[The Elite]

They all got fucking high before they came out.

 

[The Elite]

Oh shit this bit is twitter in a nutshell.

And a bit of gaf as well.

 

[BrokenFiction]

Holy shit Crazy Eyes.

 

[hokahey]

A bit?

 

[The Elite]

A bit?

I'm trying to be nice.

From head to butt.

 

[Diablos]

This show is getting embarrasingly bad.

Chris Rock is funny... but not on SNL. Because the sketches suck.

Colin Jost is like a younger, prettier Seth Meyers btw. Definitely talks like him too. It is blatantly obvious they intended for this and it annoys me.

 

[The Elite]

This sketch is fantastic.

 

[The Main Event]

I'm dying :lol

 

[Valhelm]

This episode is great so far. SNL has been on a roll these past few weeks.

 

[sethbot]

This episode is great so far. SNL has been on a roll these past few weeks.

Totally agree. These sketches have been hilarious so far.

 

[Bgamer90]

Pretty good episode so far.

 

[hokahey]

From head to butt.

Lol

 

[Bgamer90]

Something I just thought of: Could that earlier sketch have been made via SNL's experience before/after adding Black female cast members this year?

 

[kingocfs]

lol this is great

 

[blackaroni]

Something I just thought of: Could that earlier sketch have been made via SNL's experience before/after adding Black female cast members this year?

I was thinking the same thing.

This episode has been great so far.

 

[Valhelm]

Wow, probably so.

 

[Bgamer90]

New York City Jazzzzz! Yeahhhhh!

 

[The Elite]

Crying Psy.

 

[Bgamer90]

Whoa Kendrick... those eyes... you look scary.

 

[Mr.Swag]

I dont like I.
Lamar hair craz right now

 

[The Elite]

Those eyes.

 

[blackaroni]

This horrible ass song....

I'm looking forward to the second performance though.

 

[TheAbsolution]

Eh. Not feeling this performance.
How has this show been so far? Any good?

 

[hokahey]

This horrible ass song....

I'm looking forward to the second performance though.

Wat.

This is fucking great. Hell of a performance.

This is an episode fully under the influence. From host, to musical guest.

 

[Bgamer90]

I like the song but I understand some of the complaints; It's like the song was specifically made with the intention of it getting sold to networks to play during NBA broadcasts (haha).

Eh. Not feeling this performance.
How has this show been so far? Any good?

Most consistent episode this season; No really bad sketches. Pretty good (at least so far).

 

[vatstep]

But dat ass tho

 

[TheAbsolution]

Alright this character that Leslie is playing is kinda hilarious.

 

[kingocfs]

The question is, how did Lorne not pick Leslie over Sasheer when they auditioning last year? I mean seriously.

 

[BrokenFiction]

I big puffy heart love Leslie Jones

 

[Bgamer90]

"I guess White men can jump."

#SuperMario

 

[The Elite]

Glad Leslie had that after that cue card fuck up made her look bad during the last episode.

This was the best weekend update with the new hosts. I feel like the new cast is finally clicking.

 

[vatstep]

Remember the crack?
