Have you ever wanted to see Jon Snow dressed in drag doing burlesque or with his legs up in the air about to get a colo-rectal exam?

Sometime I wonder if SNL writers try to find the most fantastic way to humiliate their guest hosts and see how far they are willing to go in these sketches!

I suppose the actors like having a chance to show their range, especially someone like Kit Harington who will find it hard to escape his most famous role.

Overall, a decent episode...the WTF sketch was the Nephews one which I still didn't understand. also Theresa May one which went nowhere.
Sara Bareilles is sort of the millennial version of Sarah MacLachlan, incredibly talented but not for me...
Fun monologue with Samwell Tarly and his wife showing up, the GOT spinoff parody was spot on (loved the No Ballers with Varys and Greyworm)
The Michael Jackson/Frank Sinatra cruise ship singer was funny
also enjoyed the video game characters arguing skit
the nerds at work acting like Ren Fair or D&D people was kind of stupid
the bizarre burlesque and rectal exam skits were not your typical SNL skits but still funny.

Kit Harington is in fantastic shape and judging from the bulge in his shorts while Pete Davidson wrestled him in the rectal exam skit, he appears to be very well endowed. Rose Leslie is a lucky woman!

The episode had a few moments.
Never seen this Kit guy in anything, but he was decent. Put in a good effort.

Any GOT references were lost on me.

I had no idea who Sara Bareilles was, but I googled and realized I was familiar with a hit song of hers over 10 years ago. She definitely has some talent, but I wasn't pulled into the music.
On her first song, the women on her far left and right playing guitar and providing backing vocals were Sarah Jarosz and Aoife O’Donovan. Love them. Sara Watkins is a their their member of their trio "I'm With Her". I guess they just substituted Sara's for one night. They really need to get them on as musical guests at some point. Unbelievably talented musicians.

Kit was good. It was actually hard to even recognize him with short hair and no beard. He looks like a little boy now.

Sara definitely has a ton of talent. Not my usual style of music, but she really killed it.
1000x better than most of the rappers/hip-hop artists they usually have.

Good Lord his wife Ygritte (Rose Leslie) is unbelievably hot.

Totally agree. He has been on the show (GoT) for almost a decade and looks like he needs a tux for prom.

Not impressed with this episode except for a few chuckles during weekend update.
