If you ask me, Kristin Wigg has gotta be the most talented SNL cast member given the worst material of all time.
This show has been horrible since the cold opening. The monologue was too heavy handed, and these first two sketches have been like nails on a chalkboard to me.

Tsk tsk.

Man, this stuff is horrible.
I watched almost every episode of this show for 20+ years. I stopped about 1-2 years ago when I thought it had reached the bottom. But this is so much worse.
Someone needs to take this show out back and put it out of it's misery.

the whole opening wit Palin was a wasted effort. i would have liked to see something like Amy's Hillary and Hillary together at the same time. this was weak and they just totally made her look like an ass, which i am all for, but at least do it in a funny way. for some reason this just seemed mean.
why can't the show at least go back to the beginning and rewrite skits from the classic shows. they do it in movies all the time. just go back to what was funny and do a fresh take because coming up with the new stuff is NOT WORKING!

The opening was good. Not incredibly funny but it was cool having Palin, Wahlberg and Alec Baldwin.
Then the skits were atrocious. I like Brolin but man he does not bring the funny. Mark Wahlberg was good and so was Weekend Update.
