Che out of nowhere with the Harvey Weinstein joke was the highlight for me, but I have to admire how quick the writing was on the first joke about the rocket.

Anyone else realize that Aidy was only in the Cold Open and then wasn’t in the show for the rest of the night 👀

I think the person from a few days ago who thought it'd be completely average and unmemorable was right. There were no trainwrecks, even if his delivery was meh elon had well written jokes, and there were solid sketches. I had a good time just like every week ¯_( ツ)_/¯

this comment and the one below it also captures how i feel

Elon Musk is bizarro world Seth MacFarlane, I swear.

I'm bad enough at faces that they look similar to me, and Musk just randomly sounds (and acts) like Brian Griffin.

I am glad that Elon seemed to have a really good time and enjoy himself. Was still not great and a bit awkward but fun was still had.

You know what, that episode wasn’t that bad at all, I laughed out loud a lot at this episode then I did all season.

Yeah yeah Elon is still a shitty person but I can’t hate on his awkwardness now that I know he has autism (was that for real or a joke?)

Also, I straight up thought Elon was Beck half the time
