I have high hopes for this one. Hopefully the writing is up to par for Waltz.

Wait, who the fuck am I kidding?

Ricky Gervais is hosting next month so that should be interesting.

If you did not see the lead singer you would assume it was a man singing that song.


A huge upgrade with Waltz over Bieber last week.

Will John Goodman ever host again?


It seems like it has been a long time and he was up there with Baldwin and Steve Martin in hosting the most SNL shows.

2 great musical performances on SNL are rare for a band but Alabama Shakes are awesome.

I thought the lead singer for Alabama Shakes was Keenan Thompson in drag playing a character. Good singer, though.

The Pope retires, SNL gets very inspired overall.

And I would so pay to watch that movie.

I honestly felt Frank Ocean would win. fun. is alright but its kind of forgettable pop music, I hear them and it sounds alright but I wasn't interested in hearing more like Frank Ocean or Alabams Shakes. Just blandish pop like Coldplay or Maroon 5.

Dangit. Forgot all about this episode. But judging from the comments, Alabama Shakes seems to have stolen the show.

"DJesus Uncrossed" is a nearly perfect Tarantino spoof

Kate McKinnon needs to be in more sketches.

She could be the new breakout star of SNL and replace Kristin Wiig.

Looks like this season has consisted of mediocre shows with kick ass musical performances. I agree that McKinnon could be a break out star, but I think the feeling might be she hasn't been around long enough to get more prominent sketches.

Waltz was a great host, he was really enjoying himself.

I liked the stranded cruise ship opener. Topical!

Never heard of Alabama Shakes, but they were pretty darn good. The lead singer reminded me of the Yip Yip Martians from Sesame Street.
