I'm also guessing one of the writers got screwed by Southwest
seeing how many millions had their holiday flights canceled, that is highly likely. its also prime for easy joke writing as millions would relate to it.
Agreed, but I haven't seen them burn a specific company like that in a while (or am I crazy....which very well could be the case because....yeah)cajunaggie08 said:

This one was my favorite from tonight. Pretty solid episode.
Another good one. Bunch of silliness.
"Cook my meat!"

That was a great episode last night
My family plays Mario Kart 8 every night before bed. This is legendary.
Agreed. Last night was pretty solid, best one in a while.
Looks like they are really pushing Chloe Fineman, she was in almost every sketch

Bowen Yang is easily the best part of this cast, imo. Though I think Andrew Dismukes is rising quickly. And Ego (the woman cutting the steak) is fantastic as well.
Agree with everyone saying last night's show was the best in awhile. Who knew Pedro Pascal could be so funny? Fast forwarded through both Coldplay songs; they've gotten to where every song sounds the same. Also thought the news was a drag.
I thought the British rappers were pretty funny.
Agreed! Forgot about them.Definitely Not A Cop said:

I think they could use new Weekend Update anchors, Jost and Che have got a little stale.
Been a huge defender of SNL for years and have loved every cast for the most part and try to give each a chance to bring something new to the table. But I just can't with anything Bowen Yang is in. Dude is so terribly unfunny that he can actually ruin anything he's in.

Just suck not to have a sense of humor
They need better writers too. Their jokes sound like they're stuck in 2020 and not 2023.TXAG 05 said:

Agreed. Granted, i'm seemingly more pessimistic than you when it comes to the rest of the cast for the last several years.
Thinking Bowen Yang is funny is the #1 indicator for no sense of humor. Humor is subjective for every other person thoughCharpie said:Teslag said:

Bowen Yang is so terrible I'm convinced it's a multi year meta bit by the SNL writers.
Bowen Yang has a lot of talent and has some really good skits. Unfortuantely when he got elevated to a regular player, they have made every skit he's in about being gay instead of letting him just be a good comedian.
Except when he was the Chinese balloon
This is probably the most accurate take, joking aside, and a version of it applies to anyone that has success on SNL.The Porkchop Express said:

Once a skit hits, they are basically forcing it into every future episode for that cast member.
It would be interesting to learn if he writes his own skits ever, or if he is just doing the performances only
I listened to the Rewatchables podcast about Austin Powers yesterday and they were talking about how unusual Mike Myers' arrival was mid-season on SNL and how he already had these fully formed characters - Wayne, Deeter, Philip - and he basically wouldn't jump to the beat of them to force it into every episode - if he didn't have a really great idea for the skit he would balk. Of course that episode also talked about how difficult a large # of people find him to work with, but it was still an interesting comparison to how SNL usually is.

This is a simplistic response. I find a lot funny and have found something funny in every SNL cast, even through some widely panned casts.I'm not one of these people who thinks it was so much better in same past decade. I even found Nora Dunn funny and that was a lot to ask. But Bowen Yang just sucks. Really, really sucks.
Opinions are like *******s, etc.
These guys are so good.
Thought this was the best skit from last night.
I like Woody Harrelson, but that had to have been one of the worst SNL monologues I've ever seen. Unfortunately, the rest of the show wasn't much better.
Why wouldn't you like this???TCTTS said:

Woody Harrelson hosted Saturday Night Live and used his opening monologue to criticize Big Pharma's response to COVID-19:

edit: I forgot the wink emoji
It was a train wreck before even that bit. I've never cringed throughout an entire monologue before.
There have been some very cringeworthy SNLs over the past 20 years. That wasn't amazing but also not a flop. Quite on par for hosts in my opinion.
