SNL Saturday Night Live

I am looking forward to a brand-new season tonight.

I have missed Colin, Che, Marcello, Mikey and Bowen.
I would love to see Davidson make a cameo sometime this season too!

Wonder if the show will still be entertaining due to the absence of Heidi Gardner.
I also heard that Ego had left but that could have been just a rumour…..(I hope it was!)

I will miss Devon (who will now fill the Pete Davidson void?) and that funny Middle Eastern guy who only did one season - - those two not only added great diversity to the show but were hugely talented overall.

That boring, plain Nepo girl that was brought on last season should never have been given another season.
No shade to her but I feel like she should have been let go and ANYone else taken her place.

Ego is indeed gone. ☹️

Really???

Noooo!

Was looking forward to it too but now hearing Taylor is going to make a "surprise" appearance which I have zero interest in.

The season opener was terrible.

I watch snl each week (and have for decades), but the episode last night just wasn’t good.

I enjoy Bad Bunny’s music, but he isn’t a good fit for SNL. He struggles with English too much and sucks the humor out of the skit. It’s painful to watch.

The cold open was just okay. The Spanish language skit was decent. The rest was just bad.

Interesting that Chloe and Sarah did back to back skits (both staged at a table).

The new comic, Kam, did a decent job with his bit on weekend update.

Let’s see what Amy Poehler can do next week.

I thought Bad Bunny did quite well for a non-actor. But there sketches weren't very good. Did they lose a lot from their writing staff?

Bad bunny didn't perform, did he? I fell asleep during parts.

I just saw Doja Cat looking cooky and stupid on stage.

I agree. The opening skit was disappointing.

Boy was last night’s episode a sad show. 😕
Reason being is that we missed seeing some of the regular cast members who we have all grown to love.
Without Heidi things were not the same obviously but the void left by Ego was huge.
Chloe and Sarah are fine, but let’s face it = Heidi ➕ Ego were great, versatile comics w/huge talent.

I am glad that rising star Marcello is still around but I miss Emil and Devon.
There was a new Black comedian who is a regular cast member now who was on Weekend Update.
His bit was mediocre at best.
Even Weekend Update was struggling to be even remotely funny imo.

I fear the show has jumped the shark, this may be premature.
I hope I am wrong because I really am a huge SNL fan.

Do you know how many times this has been uttered in 51 years?? Lol

What happened to this once great show?
Last night was such a bust.
The cold open was just not very funny (though I love Colin Jost!) and the skits were just blah.
The Spanish one wasn’t even laughable nor was the teacher conference.
Even weekend update was mediocre and again, I love Colin Jost!
I just miss all the good comics:
Kate, Leslie, Aidy, Ego, Heidi, Beck, Pete, Devon, Emil, Kyle….

The revolving door of cast members is not doing this show any favors.

I am surprised that Ego was canned because she had an especially great season last season.

Like her bits on the Weekend Update plus her character from Temecula.

Her void was felt definitely last night during all the dumb skits.

Not the strongest show, but we were dying at the cold open. That guy who does Trump cannot be beat and when he said he’s had a busy summer with Travel, Golf, and Stroke it got me.

Update was good and I loved the K-pop skit.

Bad Bunny can be really good on SNL- when he played Tio/Tia with Pedro Pascal in the Latin mom skit, but except for the Spanish skit, rest wasn’t written to land any laughs. It definitely felt like a bunch of writers left and new not settled in yet.
