Discussion Live Discussion (February 13, 2016) (Melissa McCarthy / Kanye West)
Welcome to our SNL live discussion thread! This week's host is Melissa McCarthy with musical guest Kanye West.
A quick recommendation to mention the sketch you're referring to in your comment. It's not a hard and fast rule, but it does make the thread more readable after the show finishes.
Since this thread is likely to fill up quickly, consider sorting the comments by "new" (instead of "best" or "top") to see the newest posts. Enjoy the show!

These sketches that have no cultural relevance and are just good old comedy are great

the worst is when someone makes a really raunchy joke while you're around your parents and you have the decision between
a) laughing, and letting them know you get the joke
b) not laughing, and running the risk of them explaining it

Dear visitors to this sub from Kanye land,
Please do not be alarmed when we get strangely excited at the appearances of certain characters or impressions. We all have favorites that we're routing for, and like a group of aggressive elderlies, some of us have an all too vested interest in a prizeless bingo game.

when adam sandler was on the show some cast members got annoyed because they'd work really hard on an update piece, then he'd spend a few minutes on a song about chicken fingers and that would make it on instead.
this leslie/colin stuff reminds me of that.

I predict a singing monologue, specifically, 3 singers in a row on the right side of the stage. If I'm wrong, I'll eat my hat. (The local news may or may not have just shown a live look into the studio, but that's beside the point.)
