I liked WU which I always like and the Sexual Woman, Ego as the pregnant women complaining about Rihanna, and the janitor Dua Lipa sketch.
The meatballs sketch was weird.
Paw Patrol was kind of weak.
Sucks Isaac did not get the best material though he went all out and should be allowed to host again.

The meatballs one was fucking bizarre, seemed like the kind of sketch that would be buried at the end of the show, where the weirdest stuff usually ends up.

very weak episode. I think the highlight was Oscar Isaac's childhood movies which must have been an idea he brought to the writers.
Chloe fineman sketch was good too but only because Chloe fineman is so willing to go all the way with her characters. love her crazy kooky voices. Fun to see Oscar Isaac putting on some weird characters we have never seen him do too. too bad none of it was funny. he definitely deserved better material!
paw patrol was probably the worst. most of the jokes were the same things people think in their heads when they are trying to watch an episode, nothing new.
Kate mckinnon lesbian schtick another one that writes itself.
airy Bryant playing against type as the sexual ingenue felt like we've seen it many times also
meatball thing they have done before with siamese twin or some other body part
Keenan tool time thing went no where.
how do the writers go from a strong week with John mulaney to the crap we got last night.

I thought it was pretty awful. Sketches weren't funny and dragged on too long. Oscar Isaac didn't seem comfortable and most of his performances came off as awkward, like when they have a pro athlete hosting.
I haven't watched Inventing Anna, and thought "Inventing Chloe" was terrible. I generally like her, but that voice she was doing was annoying.
Probably the worst episode of the season outside of the Paul Rudd clip show before the Xmas break.
The woman with the singing... things... growing on her body was kind of funny and kind of repulsive, which is pretty typical of Sarah Squirm.
The Fox News/Russia opening was the highlight.

Oscar Isaac was great with the characters he was doing. He didn't hold back.
I still don't get McKinnon's impersonation of Laura Ingraham.
Charli XCX is shit.

The only thing I found mildly amusing was the home improvement parody show, but that was basically Kenan doing his usual schtick of politely disagreeing with the guests of the show. You know, basically what he does every time he plays the host of some kind of game show or something. But it's still funny so I laughed.

I thought this episode was good. Likely nothing there would make my Best of the Season list, but nothing had me rolling my eyes and groaning. They tried interesting ideas instead of the same old stuff
Well, you didn't understand a single thing they were parodying, so . . .

I agree with Dooku. Also though Isaac really worked hard in this.
I could have watched a 10-minute sketch of Chloe Hot Ass Fineman doing Inventing Anna. That was awesome.
I think Kate McKinnon is slipping on this show. I dont find her that funny anymore.
Cecily Strong is the queen for me. Did she have to gain a bunch of weight for that One Woman Show she just did on Broadway??
she missed a few SNL shows in January from what I remember

The meatball sketch was pretty great. It was not the most solid episode but for sure I have seen much worse. I have to wonder why Oscar kept doing "voices" during the various skits.
I enjoyed the Anna skit but I watched the show, not sure its popular enough to warrant the skit but she was based out of NYC so there is the local connection for the story as well.
Weekend Update made me miss the last WU when they had no guests during the bit as they tend to drag on too long. Kate was not awful for her bit but she did not add that much to the segment. I'm 100% for LGBTQ rights but she is just played out at this point and needs to make like Leslie Jones and disappear.

You know how the final sketch of an episode is usually really weird, and sometimes great, but usually not?
Well, this episode seemed to only have sketches of that caliber - like, they were all sketches that should be relegated to the final sketch of the night.

I thought this was a solid episode and Isaac gave one of the best first time performances in a long time.

The HR bit was complex and funny. I almost gave up, but stuck with it and it delivered. That Charli XcX chick is Hot even if her music is just ok.
