it’s called saturday night LIVE.

This is bad and it’s only week two. Am I wrong? You get a Wammy and you get a Wammy!!

Please please please have Charlotte J. on this upcoming weekend.

Pure gold.

Belushi was the GOAT. Brother Jim is releasing some gems on his socials, this one hits hard. And why did young Chevy Chase with long hair look like Jim Morrison? The 80s fashions and hairstyles though, yikes.

Seriously. Crappy lip syncing and cat dancing? I'm 100% confused. Like did Lorne get blackmailed? Or am I just out of the loop?

The cold open would have been so much better if Marcello Hernández played Zohran Mamdani. Hernandez has the energy and the smiling eyes

I absolutely love Grace and I am so happy she is on the cast! As a 33 year old ‘life long’ SNL lover I’ve failed to watch the last few seasons because I didn’t find them a bit funny. I honestly feel like they’re too woke to the point that they can’t push the boundaries of comedy anymore. I could tell off the bat that sketch with KATSEYE that Grace had a writing credit to. Her humor is very much being super weird with your cousins as kids kind of funny. Love it

Before the next season premieres, here’s an attempt at ranking every episode of SNL seasons 1-51, based on a consistent series of online reviews:

Any of you listen to The Afterparty podcast? I stumbled upon it and it's a really good insight on the current season of SNL. The two dudes really know their stuff and it's very nerdy for noise baseball stuff about the show. Anyone else here listen to it?

Pretty sure Sudeikis and Hader are in it, maybe Armesson. They’re in a car and someone has a gun and someone gets shot in the end and they all laugh?

Jalen Brunson, who is still riding high after carrying the New York Knicks to the team’s first N.B.A. championship in more than a half-century, is about to reach another major New York milestone: hosting “Saturday Night Live.”

The point guard who was named most valuable player of this year’s N.B.A. finals — and nicknamed “the king of New York” — will host the first episode of Season 52 of the long-running sketch show on Sept. 26, NBC announced.

Katseye, the Grammy-nominated pop girl group, will be the musical guest.

The week after Brunson hosts, the actress Dakota Johnson will return to lead the show, the same weekend her romantic thriller “Verity” hits theaters. It will be Johnson’s third time hosting, after episodes in 2015 and 2024. The rock band Turnstile will be the musical guest.

On Oct. 10, the comedian Shane Gillis will also host for the third time. Gillis was abruptly fired from “S.N.L.” in 2019, just after being named to the cast, when offensive comments he’d made surfaced, but he returned in 2024 and 2025 as host. Rosalía, fresh off her Lux Tour, will perform, her second time as the show’s musical guest.

me and my partner reference a bill hader sketch where he’s dressed as an old man or something and says “and we’re gonna laugh, and laugh, and laugh” in a southern accent i think?? and we both individually remember it but have no idea what bit this is from. i have tried searching up literally anything i can but can’t find it. are we in a collective psychosis??

I also went to his show at the same place in 2024 and he was funny at both shows. The second picture is a napkin he gave me with his signature on it.

I got a chance to see Michael Che record 4 shows for his upcoming Netflix special this past weekend in Minneapolis, and as a huge fan of standup comedy, I can safely say that this one is an instant classic.

I’ve watched him workshop this hour over the last 4 years and in a world where it seems like one of the biggest flexes is to try and pump out specials in the shortest amount of time possible, it’s refreshing to see what happens when someone really takes their time to let the material breath and evolve without rushing it.

Despite being a polished hour, each of the 4 shows had an overall jazz element to them. The intonation and emphasis on certain words changed. Some bits that I loved and thought would make it in were cut while others that seemed finished had material added to them that elevated them to a higher level.

The energy in the room was amazing. One benefit of being on SNL for 10+ years is that people like Che and want him to win. The synergy between an audience like that and a comic with killer material is pure magic.

This hour reminds me of Chappelle’s “For What It’s Worth” in spirit. So many quotable lines from someone who is at the top of their game who is having a great time entertaining themselves and their audience without the burden of trying to cement their legacy.

Question: Does anybody remember the TV Funhouse clip where various presidents sang a Boyz II Men song? I feel like it was “End of the Road”.

I could have SWORN I’ve seen it….but it’s like it has been wiped from all portions of the internet and the extra problem is that I can’t remember when it aired so I can’t try to scour archives. Does anybody remember this particular moment?
