I'm already predisposed not to like this episode because I'm not a fan of Hill.

Goldberg74

You and me both.

pbrstreetgang

Didn't even have to wait for WEU and Michael Che to hear "racist".

The Questyen

If you're keeping of track of when the word racist is uttered in a television show you might be a racist.

RichC2

It's weird that the one voice Jay Pharaoh struggled with during his WU bit was Chris Tucker. That seems like it'd be the easiest one.

Bandoman

My favorite line: "Hey Kyle Mooney, I love your videos, they remind me how much I miss Andy Samberg."

Eric F

Nice that they think Trump is a racist. If they feel so strongly about it why did they have him as a host only a few weeks back? (or at least object about it if it wasn't their choice)

Count Dooku

It wasn't a few weeks ago, it was four months ago.

Four months ago before a vote had been cast, when the conventional wisdom from the mainstream media and the political establishment was that Trump was a sideshow, an outsider celebrity candidate who attracted attention and support just like any number of candidates did in 2011/12.

Mike Huckabee, Michelle Bachman, Rick Santorum, and Herman Cain, all were at the top of the polls at some point in 2011, but when it came time for votes to be cast, the GOP moved to the center and Romney.

The expectation was that the same thing would happen with Trump.

So SNL saw a ratings draw (during the sweeps month of November) and had the person dominating the media on to host, and sure enough it was the most watched epsiode of the year.

Interesting that no cast members individually decided to boycott the Trump show, the way that Nora Dunn did with Andrew Dice Clay in 1990. But maybe they knew that Dunn was fired from SNL after that 89-90 season.

Neil M.

That was probably the funniest line of the entire show. It's also an accurate statement.

I liked The Champ sketch, Kate McKinnon's impersonation of the 110 year old lady, and Racists For Trump commercial.

JeffTheAlpaca

Did not understand the joke about Indian food in the Mooney digital short.

The Trump show was probably the worst so far this season. He bombed.

This was probably one of the better shows of the season.

Yost saying "I am the bad guy" after the Jared Fogle joke lol

That Sheik bidding in a auction would have probably killed if Bill Hader was around and played that character lol.

The best part was the 110 year old lady on Weekend Update

whotony

Dice Clay, who is doing shows in Philly next week was on local radio there.
The hosta sked him about Nora Dunn.
Clay says that Dunn walked off the show because she was told her contract wasn't getting renewed
and she used Dice as an excuse to walk as protest.

Bandoman

Because he is one?
