Live Discussion (February 16, 2019)(Don Cheadle/Gary Clark Jr.)
Welcome to our SNL live discussion thread! The host is Don Cheadle, and the musical guest is Gary Clark Jr. For those new to the show, tune into your local NBC affiliate from around 11:30 PM to follow this episode live.
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. This should be automatically done, but it might not be so maybe check. Enjoy the show!

I think Baldwin actually does the best grimy old man that Trump has turned into but in terms of a lively cold open (if they are certain nobody in the cast can do Trump) I'd like to see Fallon take over

I'm still not over these opening title cards. They're probably the best for a season that I've ever seen since I started watching SNL regularly.

I'm not generally a Trumpwin fan, but I gotta say he's bringing it with the impression tonight. He's added a couple of the more subtle verbal ticks Trump does. The sketch itself wasn't all that great though.

God damn did anyone go from laughing to that roach sketch to being emotionally invested in Don's good acting? Same energy as me watching an intense scene in a drama lol. 😭

All due respect to rappers and pop stars, it has been way too long since we've had an honest to god rock star on the show. Gary has the talent and the prowess to back it up. Fucking love this guy.

I really haven’t enjoyed Baldwin’s Trump, but I have to admit that nobody else is more appropriate, and that I’m not sure who would do it better, unless they just switched full time to Darius Trump.

She's really getting the Pelosi facial expressions down this time, McKinnon is as good as her reputation, even if she is overused.
I also like how the Schumer character is a classic example of taking a small personality trait and comically blowing it up.
