I also liked the cold opening. I saw that actual debate and enjoyed the actual references like when Bernie got asked about diversity and he started talking about global warming (While I like Bernie a lot, it was funny to see Larry David's take on that) and how the guy who played Andrew Yang was just really serious.

Chit Chat December 22, 2019 Share December 22, 2019 I can't remember the last time I watched SNL, but seeing that Eddie Murphy was going to host, well, I had to tune in! My favorite sketches were the Masked Singer and Home for the Holidays (which hit a little close to home in some aspects!) I was hoping for a James Brown hot tub sketch, but I was happy with the characters they did bring back. As others have said, they needed to keep it fresh with new sketches. I thought it was one of SNL's better nights. Bravo to Eddie Murphy! Okay, back to my corner of the world. I'm sure it'll be a long time before I tune back in to SNL. There's only a handful of guest hosts that can get me to tune into this show anymore. 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/105061-s45e10-eddie-murphylizzo/page/2/#findComment-5824062

lovinbob December 23, 2019 Share December 23, 2019 I enjoyed Eddie Murphy so much. It was fun to go back to his old characters--it's been so long that they're not tired. Mister Robinson—that really brought me back. And Gumby—I never really appreciated it then, but as an adult now I just marvel at Murphy's versatility. Which leads me to Kenan. I loved seeing him on that stage with Tracy and Chris. He looked a little sheepish, and his humility does him credit. It was interesting because Tracy and Chris (and Chapelle) are edgy, like Eddie (more so than Kenan). But I realized that Kenan and Eddie share a real versatility—they can both get on stage and do pretty much anything. Re: Pete: Last week (I think), he made a joke about getting high, which surprised me because I thought he had gotten sober. Reading up on it now apparently he started smoking and drinking again after getting diagnosed as bipolar. This week, his Update appearance wasn't really funny to me, just concerning. To see someone struggle with addiction and/or mental illness in such a public way is challenging. In some ways I think that he needs to get the hell out of the spotlight. But I also worry about what Pete's life would be like without this job and success. (I mean, I don't *worry,* but as a viewer it does make me think.)

Growsonwalls December 23, 2019 Share December 23, 2019 7 hours ago, ahisma said: He was “speaking on behalf of Mr. Cosby.” Either he committed gross malpractice in making up the statement completely and releasing it to the public, or he committed gross malpractice in representing Mr. Cosby’s thoughts accurately in the statement and releasing it to the public. I lean towards the latter, as they remind me of Rudy Giuliani and his most famous client... The words, syntax, etc sound very much like Bill Cosby. The massive entitlement as well. SO this might be a case of "the lawyer knows the client so well he can sound exactly like the client" or Bill Cosby could have watch TV on Saturday and called up his lawyer. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/105061-s45e10-eddie-murphylizzo/page/2/#findComment-5825637
librarianbeck December 23, 2019 Share December 23, 2019 (edited) Oh, cry me a river, Bill Cosby. I don't give two sh*ts about your feelings. Regarding the show (please don't stone me!), I thought Eddie was enthusiastic and fun, but I am a little too young to have seen his original run (I'm 37, so I'm not a baby), and kind of wish it hadn't been such a rehash of old characters. I especially didn't get Gumby. Yes, I have seen the actual Gumby Claymation show. Lizzo seemed THRILLED to be there and holy moly, what a talent. I adore her and her message.

GHScorpiosRule December 23, 2019 Share December 23, 2019 I haven't watched this show in YEARS. But when Eddie was on Colbert's show recently and said he was going to be hosting again? I was SO EXCITED. And Eddie DID.NOT.DISSAPOINT! The cherry on the sundae of this episode would have been to see Joe Piscopo show up. But it was SUBLIME without him. "Girl, THEY DEAD!" had me 🤣🤣 along with "It doesn't matter who I am!" or was it What my name is! But Buckwheat TOPS the list. Mr. Robinson, a veryclose second! And Gumby!!!!! 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/105061-s45e10-eddie-murphylizzo/page/2/#findComment-5825754

Am I the only that noticed that he didn't even acknowledged Lizzo's presence when she is either trying to hug or speak to other cast members during the goodbyes? I saw that and just thought 1) they don't really know each other and 2) Larry was on a mad dash to Maya where he complimented the shit out of her. He was "director Larry" at that point, so I'm not going to be mad at him. 1 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/105061-s45e10-eddie-murphylizzo/page/2/#findComment-5825757

The owner of the cue card company (Eddie) I believe, still works on SNL. All of his employees has to learn how to write like him so not to "confuse" (my word) the talent. I thought that was pretty cool. 🙂 3 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/105061-s45e10-eddie-murphylizzo/page/2/#findComment-5825766

GHScorpiosRule December 23, 2019 Share December 23, 2019 Oh! and The "Home for the Holidays" skit also had me laughing non-stop. With Eddie and Maya, etc., saying all these lovey-dovey things, and when they flashed back, you had Eddie and Maya yelling and fighting that was oh so hilarious. Especially the ones with Eddie and Maya fighting about why the dinner had to be at their house/being all racist toward their daughter's boyfriend, with the "no offense" because he was sitting right there! To Eddie telling his son to go away and then yelling for him to come back because he couldn't figure out the gadgetwhatzit.🤣🤣🤣 Eddie Murphy is just a GEM. 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/105061-s45e10-eddie-murphylizzo/page/2/#findComment-5825814

I think it was in reference to women pulling off their earring before they get in fist fight. He said, "Impeach me outside, OK. Impeach me outside!" Alec Baldwin also wore similar bamboo earrings as Bregoli, which is why I linked the photo of her on the show. Of course, it's also a reference to girls preparing to fight by taking their earrings off. 'Impeach me outside' is a play on words from the phrase made famous by the 'cash me ousside girl' Danielle Bregoli, aka Bhad Bhabie, who became a social media sensation after making the comment during an appearance on Dr Phil in 2016.
