SNL (s40e10) -- 12/20/14 -- H: Amy Adams -- MG: One Direction
I'll be out of the house most of tomorrow, so I'm starting this thread tonight.
... and to end the year we get the cute and bubbly Amy Adams...

I haven't watched since the premiere this season but Amy Adams is enough to make me watch. I'm under no pretense that it'll be good.

I've only heard One direction's music twice in my life, both times when they were on SNL. I can't believe I'll admit ths, but they actually sound pretty good.

Amy Adams seems to be too guarded to be a good host. SNL works best when the hosts allow themselves to do things out of their comfort zone and be willing to embarass themselves and just have fun but I don't get that vibe from her.

Other than the dreaded Garth & Kat sketch during WU and that crappy Cuban sketch, I thought it was a solid episode.

The only songs I heard from them were "That's What Makes You Beautiful" (I think that's what it was called) and their DREADFUL remake of Blondie's "One Way or Another". And for that alone, I hated these guys with a passion. But, I have to agree with you here. The songs they did tonight were not terrible and they did sound pretty good. They were on Graham Norton last week and sounded good then too. Aside from them, I thought this was a solid show. And Mike Myer's opening was so great. All I kept thinking was, uh oh. Tough act to follow, current cast.

It's embarrassing just to be on this terrible show.

I liked the Cuba sketch and I like Armisen but not a fan of Kat and Garth.
I thought during the closing credits the cast would go ice skating like they usually do during the holiday episode.

I really enjoyed that last sketch with the garbage chewing girls, but the 'reveal' sort of took the fun out of it.

Kat and Garth was funny for the first 30 seconds the very first time they did it. It has sucked ever since.

Wasn't expecting that opening. Really good.
Everything after was as-expected. Carry on.

It's still a ways out yet, but there will be a 3-hour 40th anniversary special on Feb 15. The 25th anniversary special was a real hoot.
