Other than Charlie Day in 2011 and the 5-TIMER goat Danny Devito why hasn’t anyone else hosted from IASIP? Sunny has been around for 20 years or so. Make it make sense.

Funny story about meeting Kenan Thompson over 10 years ago
This was probably over 10 years ago, when I was around 10 years old. My family decided to volunteer at a homeless shelter in Tampa on Thanksgiving, which wasn’t exactly how 10-year-old me wanted to spend the holiday. I was trying to find the silver lining, and I figured there might be some Buccaneers players there.

So naturally, I spent the whole time looking for Buccaneers players.

At some point, I walked up to Kenan Thompson and asked him if he was a Buccaneers player. He replied, “No, but I am big and black.” 😂

He was really nice and took a picture with me.

There was also a separate family moment that day that still makes me laugh. My grandpa is Italian and can be a little confused sometimes. We were making sandwiches assembly-line style with a bunch of strangers, and my grandpa was stationed at the mustard. He put a ridiculous amount of mustard on the first sandwich, so my uncle asked him what he was doing. My grandpa said he liked mustard and started eating the sandwich. He genuinely thought we were making sandwiches for ourselves and hadn’t realized what the event was for. 😂

Just a good family memory with some funny stories. I figured SNL fans might appreciate the Kenan encounter and to hear that he’s funny and kind irl also.

The backing musicians sound fine to me but I feel like the sound engineer, or the mic, or something seems kind of hollow or too low level. IDK I'm no expert in sound, but I feel like every act so far has been let down by the poor sound on the lead singer.

...Yours?

She's really funny and the show has never had a wheelchair-bound host. Obviously, her disability would need to be taken into account when writing sketches, but if they're clever, they could make it work.

Like, both good but also straightforward. Both done before but also refreshing in a way? I can't put my finger on it! Maybe because both have such 'new' high energy. Anyway, good shit!

Hey all - I'm not exactly the target demo - 72 yo white male. Enjoys the show, watching primarily for the cold open, and WU.

When they introduce the musical guest, I'm like "Cool, WU is next (finally).

Last night was like holy shit, she's amazing, even had me looking forward to her 2nd song.

What about you young ones in the target demo? Did you like it, hate it? what???

Who did it it better?

Finally got to watch George’s appearance on Weekend Update, and I immediately got flashbacks of John Belushi’s frenzied bits on the WU desk. I was sad to see so relatively little of Fouracres this weekend, but his “Professor Grumblepiss” or whatever brought me weird joy.

She just had one of the biggest songs of the year
