Saturday Night Live

[Simple Torture]

Finale is Tina Fey.

I had not seen that, the list I saw still said TBA. I'm good with it.
I more than halfway expect McCarthy to do a stop by this month though. She's popular there and has a summer movie to promote so...

Don't @ me, but I saw it on the Today Show this morning.

I was disappointed by the Donald Glover show this week.

[The Argonaut]

yeah, the whole thing was a dud. I don't think I finished watching a single sketch. The only thing that even kind of landed was Pete Davidson on Weekend Update, and that was one of his weakest ever segments

[Stickman]

The dirty talk in bed sketch had a few funny lines.

I thought that was a great skit as well as this one:

It wasn't spectacular but it was pretty solid throughout. And the musical numbers were awesome.

[The Argonaut]

Maybe I was in the wrong mood. But this show has rarely been even passable for a while, and i'll stamd by that

I've done a complete 180 on Donald Glover over the past year, and still found this episode to be pretty disappointing. I chalk it up to the writing. I loved the 80s Music Video skit, and the Friendos skit made me lol a few times too ("Lambo!"). The rest of it felt pretty tired despite Glover putting forth a great effort. The best takeaway was that "This Is America" is an awesome song, and I'm looking forward to a Childish Gambino album for the first time in my life.

Three other random thoughts:

1. Chris Redd and Heidi Gardner were both great hires and are already paying dividends.

2. Michael Che's "Pass" joke on Kanye West was a retread of David Spade's "No, it's too easy" joke during The Hollywood Minute like 25 years ago.

3. The "retarded" joke during the Dirty Talk skit sure was timely, eh RM?

[The Argonaut]

I agree that Chris Redd and Heidi Gardner are good additions.

I spent a couple few extra seconds chuckling at that

Man, me too. I was really against her in the beginning, but I was 100% wrong. You should watch her episode of Crashing, there's a sweetness to her that is really great. And she goes crazy with the Instagram story vids, but they are usually pretty cute and funny.
