vb68 March 1, 2020 Share March 1, 2020 (edited) Well that was fun and energetic. Loved John's monologue, Airport Sushi, and of course David Byrne for the fucking win! Weekend Update was certainly interesting this week. I will say Che is badly fooling himself if he thinks he's been pretending to care about politics. Che, just let Chris Redd do it. We need a lot more political commentary and analysis from Big Redd. He was fantastic. On Airport Sushi, I was in heaven when Mulaney started in on "....to be in LaGuardia..." Hey, you're Jake Gyllenhaal! The only things I didn't care for were the Cold Open, and that Sisters sketch....was annoying. When is a non-debate sketch actually a debate sketch? That was a freaking mess. You don't always need to work everything. I knew they would work Warren going after Bloomberg in, but that it didn't come close to the venom in real life. Come to think of it, neither did Amy and Pete's disdain for each other. So Biden is going to be played by committee, but nice to see Larry David is going along for however long the ride takes him. I could tell he was having fun tonight. Off to re-watch David Byrne again.

Psychobunny March 1, 2020 Share March 1, 2020 Confession here, while I was never a Hugh David Byrne fan ( more into Madonna and Whitney at that time) his music was always a background to my college years. Loved seeing him tonight and thought he brought it big time but I was wondering why they booked a musical guest with songs from 30+ years ago. Don’t get me wrong, it spoke directly to my fifty-something year old self but I do wonder what the younger generations think. I wasn’t sure why he was on but if he’s in Mulaney’s show it makes sense. Another unpopular opinion is that the LaGuardia sketch was enjoyable but it will never approach the brilliance of lobster Les Miz which had a defined storyline with a beginning, middle and end. This was more a series of funny observations strung together. I thought the Admiral sketch was somewhat homophobic and offensive. The Sound of Music skit was a winner and Mulaney’s monologues are killer but I didn’t find anything memorable. The only other sketch I even remember was Kyle’s taped one. Loves Alex as the random rat although until about half way through the sketch I kept wondering why there was a random bear in the sketch. Then I saw the tail and I got it. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/106918-s45e14-john-mulaneydavid-byrne/#findComment-5972811
