I didn't really mind it, although Miley introducing Brittany every time it was her turn to sing or do a guitar solo was annoying. It's wild to think that Sandler has managed to become one of the most liked people in Hollywood (he got Jack Nicholson to show up) and probably the most successful SNL cast members of all time (at least financially). If someone had told me that back in the 90's when I was watching Opera man or his crazy Halloween costumes I would never believe them. To be fair, if Jerry is doing a stand up special or something equivalent to a regular SNL episode he is going to be doing material that he has probably worked on for months and refined during many much smaller sets and appearance. It's not like he is going on national TV and doing jokes live that he only came up with earlier that week. Which is interesting since while they are not the same people they did have the same basic career trajectories and when Paris Hilton hosted there were some comments about how bad she was. What Tina Fey said about her was super mean.

I thought it was funny that they didn't even bother to try and show how coach hauled two crates out of the ground.

I don't know, my kids who are 11 and 14 and after watching SNL for a year or two Domingo is easily their favorites sketch. They know all the words to the songs. Not sure if it's the parody of pop songs or the pop stars doing bad singing but they love it. My 14 year old has told me that even her friends who don't watch SNL know that character. Maybe part of it too is that SNL doesn't have a lot of reoccurring characters at the moment. My kids probably know more Adam Sandler characters than they do current cast characters.

It was definitely weird how they jumped from cabin burning down when there was still a lot of snow to living in the teepee town with no real explanation. Hope they show a flashback in the flashback. Because even if they kept the cabin bonfire going you are still outside with no protection from wind or rain or snow. And even with their little huts how do they stay warm in them during cool spring or summer nights. Also I would love to know who made the ceremonial robes with matching leather hoods, and how.

But if he is doing bare knuckle, no padding fighting competitions would it even be possible to do matches say every weekend? Even in the course of the show, over all 6 seasons there were only 3 tournaments (4 official competitions if you count the S-T tryouts). Plus Robby has to train somewhere so why not at his dad's dojo?

This episode was a bit of a dud for me. The idea of a ghost fraternity didn't really work. Although alive Issac pretending to not be gay in front of Ben Franklin was funny. As for the whole liquor license speak easy thing, it was ok but the line about how they wasted all that valuable liquor was dumb. Because even if you didn't know it was valuable, why would you bring out all the bottles? Plus if you are trying to hide things from the liquor inspector, moving one bottle of whiskey through the house would be a lot quieter than moving a while case.

Some more follow up to Tory and Robby's story would have been interesting. Since it could have been really messy. I mean their pro deals seem to have been based on the "I love you" moment and them being the karate couple. Which would be a ton of pressure, especially for two people that started dating when they were maybe 16. Especially when you throw in that they are travelling the world and have a bunch of their own money. Especially since the whole endorsement package might not be as good if they were to break up. And in Robby's case if they did break up, the endorsement companies might be more likely to stick with the pretty blonde girl with the nickname and the championship over him.

But even if he is a pro fighter it's not like a pro basketball player or something where you are doing 80+ fights a year. Not to mention you he would have to train somewhere. Mostly I would have liked a scene where Robby is also working alongside his dad in some capacity. Or even maybe a sign or a poster or something at Cobra Kai that it is the home dojo of pro fighters Robby and Tory

Winning with a "sweep the leg" was pretty cool. Although I totally thought at one point that Johnny was going to headbutt Wolf. Only thing I thought was missing was Robby working next to his dad at Cobra Kai. I mean I doubt that karate equipment spokesmodel is a full time job. Also was there some sort of significance to showing the exact date that drunk Johnny went to see his mom's grave at the beginning. That was a good scene though and I like how the talk about second chances kind of worked with William Zabka's career. I liked Dimitri and Hawk patching things up. Plus it's undergrad. I doubt that MIT is teaching things that you can't learn anywhere else.

As much as I make fun of this show that ending was pretty cool. And Chozen saying the heat thing isn't magic was funny. And I didn't even mind the fake Myagi. And I really liked how Daniel realized that Johnny's life and what he needs was way different than his and was ok with him being Cobra Kai again. Yea. Like even one of those elbows to the face that Robby took would probably have been an instant concussion. Also if there were only 4 teams left by that point did the other teams really spend what must be thousands of dollars to fly to California to watch.

That was so over the top that it was funny. Even if you aren't arrested, the logical response should be "you can't use our facility". And a logical response to that should be, "That's fine, I can take my business elsewhere, and there are probably 100's of facilities just in California that I could use".

This show has gotten so crazy that it's probably good they aren't trying to draw it out much more. Like how did Kreese get a knife that killed a kid back? And why is Robby surprised that he doesn't have a ton of options after high school. He is a teen with a record and we never got much indication that he was into school. Plus it's not like trade school is a bad thing.

I feel like even without revealing the existence of the actual ghosts they should definitely be playing up the spooky history of the property. Like in just the past 100 years or so two different women were murdered, a woman was killed by a bear, a guy was shot with an arrow and another guy was somehow decapitated. And before that a bunch of people died of cholera. I bet people would be into that.

I was off yesterday so I watched it. My only real complaint was that in Canada the only place to watch it is the global TV app. And there were so many commercials, and I swear every break had the same commercials. It was interesting though although I wish when they were talking about some of the surprising events they talked more about the aftermath. Like the picture thing was a huge hit to Sinead O'Connor's career which they didn't really mention, and what happened to Ashlee Simpson is she still even a singer. Although I don't think I have ever seen that full Sinead performance so that was cool. I loved that whole beginning mash up though that was amazing how well it was edited together. There was only thing really missing though, especially when talking about music and comedy. The reason that Weird Al Yankovic was able to get permission to do Smells Like Nirvana was because he heard that the bad was going to be on SNL in 1992, and he called Victoria Jackson (who he knew) and asked if he could speak to Kurt. Kurt obviously said yes and felt that he had made it because Weird Al was parodying him.

As far as the health insurance think, is there anything stopping musical artists from setting up their own union and providing health insurance that way? I mean actors had that figured out over 90 years ago.
