GoldenGirl90 February 17, 2019 Share February 17, 2019 When I saw Trump doing that weird singy-songy thing about the wall during his press conference, I said to myself - this is going to end up on SNL. SNL did not disappoint, lol. 1 9 Link to comment
Galileo908 February 17, 2019 Share February 17, 2019 (edited) Cold Open: And we start with the "National Emergency." Yeah, this was too insane to satirize. I'm waiting for anyone else to step into Trump's wig at this point, I'm getting tired of Baldwin. He actually tried to make his voice more Trump-like, though. "Those numbers are faker than this emergency" says everything. Just when I think it can't get any stupider... Monologue: Don Cheadle is finally here! The man knows how to do comedy, and this was a good monologue. Fresh Takes: Don Cheadle as the cool, gossipy science teacher on a HS talk show, I knew this was gonna be fun. I loved this sketch so much, I really hope we see it again. Extreme Baking Championship: the crappy cakes were hilarious enough, but Kenan's voice coming out of the Cookie Monster abomination just made me lose it. And the "Yoda the Pesky Elf" cake was the perfect topper. "Why, that's his famous penis, of course." Sketch of the night for me. Pound Puppy: This was great. The way to distract your dog during sex is to do it in a giant dog costume, I love that logic. WU: Yeah, like I said up top, that rose garden speech was too insane to satirize. And Che, of course, is actually DONE. But when that got out of the way, this was a good one. Of course Jules would love Green Book. I also loved that old man character, the voice Alex Mikey used was great. Oscars Family Feud: Impressed they saved this for after Update. This was worth it just for Kate as Glenn Close, and to bring back the Gaga impression (with Kyle as Bradley Cooper in tow yet again). Pete is the perfect Rami Malek, because it doesn't take much effort. I honestly don't think he was wearing makeup. The thing about these sketches is that it's all dependent on the intros, and then they remember they have to do the rest of the sketch. Bar Fight: This turned out to be fun. Never heard of Mika's "Lollipop," but I liked the premise of a bar fight set to a pop song like that. Roach Ex: Well, this took a dark, if expected turn. We can put "Don Cheadles cucks a guy as a roach" on our list of things we didn't expect to see, at least. Don was so good in this. Regal Promenade Pavillion: This was weird. A weird ad for a sketchy wedding venue? "Pink soap that hates you hands!" Well, this one certainly brought the goods. A few duds, but that's to be expected. But this was overall a good one. The show comes back March 2nd with JOHN MULANEY. Yes. Edited February 20, 2019 by Galileo908 16 Link to comment
Lantern7 February 17, 2019 Share February 17, 2019 (edited) *sigh* Nothing like laying down, closing your eyes, then finding out you missed two shows on Toonami and a third of SNL. I'll have to catch up . . . with my luck, at least one sketch would be edited out of On Demand feeds. And in case you think this is a TL:DW post: Pound Puppy. Oh my God. So perfect. I mean, if you bring dogs into a sketch, I'm probably gonna love it . . . but the thought of two lovers getting into a giant fake dog so their actual "fur baby" doesn't look at them directly? Beautiful. ETA: I thought the president was "upspeaking," not "sing-songing." Either way? Still embarrassing. Edited February 17, 2019 by Lantern7 1 Link to comment
Mibbitmaker February 17, 2019 Share February 17, 2019 (edited) That was a great one, right down to the last sketch, but I have the perfect (observational, not snarky) MST3K-style riff of one of the characters: "Kate McKinnon IS Christopher Walken as some guy with an accent!"

vb68 February 17, 2019 Share February 17, 2019 (edited) This one was an interesting one. At first I thought it was oddly a little low-key, but the last half was really clicking. I watched the real press conference, and this was a little tooclose to the real one to be that funny for me. In the monologue, I couldn't get over how much Leslie totally dwarfed Don. The bake off sketch certainly took a turn. That was really funny. I really like Alex's Schumer. But I think Kate's Pelosi still needs some work. I can't tell what's missing, but something is just not there. Juul or whatever he's called really doesn't work for me. I think they wanted to highlight Melissa's Gaga one more time before the Oscars and decided on Family Feud as they often do for impressions. I agree that Glenn Close was the standout. I was waiting for "I won't be ignored!!", though. I agree with whoever said last week that Kyle is no Bradley Cooper. The bar fight/dance off was really funny, and I totally thought the Roach sketch was one of the best pieces of the season. Very dark, but so hilarious. Don Cheadle was great as expected, but once again the writing was highly inconsistent. Edited February 17, 2019 by vb68 5 Link to comment

I loved whatever it was he was wearing during the monologue (which was pretty good), and what he was wearing at the end. I loved Doin' it Doggie Style. I loved the roach skit at the end. And the cake skit. Everything (except parts of Update) was really funny - and really dark. Which I love. And have I mentioned that I loooooove Gary Clark Jr? Because I do... Overall, a damn good show tonight. 8 Link to comment

Very dark, but so hilarious. The show’s roach-based humor is consistently on point (a sentence I never thought I would write). This sketch was a good take, as was the Charles Barkley roach sketch from last(?) season (roaches with AK-47s). I guess there is a lot of humor to be mined from those nasty things. I normally hate anything even vomit-humor adjacent, but even so, that cake sketch (despite the Cookie Monster expelling all that blue goo from his mouth) was a real bright spot for me. It was just so funny to see Leslie and Don enthusiastically describing such elaborate cakes and then revealing the finished product. I thought it might go the direction of them getting mad that they only had two hours to complete their vision, but the direction that it did go was great, too. I wasn’t familiar with Gary Clark Jr. That second song was very powerful. I don’t know if I’m tired of Baldwin’s Trump, tired of Trump, tired of Baldwin, or tired of the show being kind of lazy with these political sketches (like just repeating press conference lines). Probably all of the above. They need new political writers. John Mulaney! I’m super excited that he’s back so soon. @Mystery: Pete did say he mistakenly built the slats horizontally (instead of vertically). Building them horizontally would allow someone to use the wall as a ladder and climb right over. Edited February 17, 2019 by Peace 47 7 Link to comment

Psychobunny February 17, 2019 Share February 17, 2019 My takeaway: Roach skit was awesome Don Cheadle was awesome and should have hosted before You can’t satirize an administration that is already a joke Loved the hockey jersey at the end although I didn’t get it until he turned around This cast is particularly good at impressions Percussive recognition is my new favorite phrase 9 Link to comment
Ottis February 17, 2019 Share February 17, 2019 Pete said he actually had built a ladder (because the slats were horizontal). It was a clever line but he muffed it. They really blew a chance to make the cake skit bring the house down by not having the bakers explain that their cakes sucked because “it was friggin two hours!” The cakes all should have sucked Aside from the first two cakes, I didn’t laugh at anything in the show. Cheadle was fine. The writing wasn’t, again. WU had a couple of lines that had social commentary roots that were received strangely by the audience, which didn’t seem to know whether to clap or not. What the he’ll wasbtgat wedding location skit at the end? Is that a NY thing? It’s not enough to do impressions, show. The lines need to be funny. 2 Link to comment

Having caught a bit of the real one it was way to close to how ridiculous it really was. I know we aren't supposed to discuss politics but that "speech" was more of a parody than SNL ever could be. Maybe they would have been better off using something else as the cold opening and then expanding the real discussion on Weekend update. Anyhow, I was suprised they didn't even mention him being in the MCU. I know he isn't known for it, but he has been in a decent amount of them. Especially when was talking about fan's recognizing him. I wouldn't be suprised if he had someone walk up to him and be like "you're Tony's friend". Unless that was the last skit, I fell asleep at that point. Edited February 17, 2019 by blueray 5 Link to comment

When they showed actual video clips of the speech during Weekend Update, it only solidified that Baldwin's Trump just falls flat in comparison to the real thing. I weep for America. My favorite sketches were the baking show and dog commercial, both of which had me actually laughing aloud. I struggled with Family Feud as it felt a little lower energy than usual and I could not get over the unexplained presence of Mahershala Ali on the newbie team when he is the one person who has actually won an Oscar already. Don Cheadle was great; full marks for enthusiasm and putting it all out there. 7 Link to comment
Joimiaroxeu February 17, 2019 Share February 17, 2019 The Tito Puente thing. Excellent. Seems to me the main aim of that Family Feud sketch was to deliver the reference to Mo'Nique. I think SNL probably should've left that one alone or brought Mo'Nique into the sketch. Link to comment

helenamonster February 17, 2019 Share February 17, 2019 (edited) Are there any sort of industry awards for props people? Because that Cookie Monster cake was an eldritch abomination for the ages. Melissa's Gaga impression was better this week in terms of her facial expressions, but the voice is still so off. Gaga has a very particular, affected way of speaking and a relatively deep tone. Melissa can't come in here with her derpy voice and expect me to be impressed. What was Oscar-winner Mahershala Ali doing on the "Newbies" side of Family Feud? That "Lollipop" sketch was a delight. Don's got moves! I loved when it morphed into a full-on choreographed number at the end. So excited for John Mulaney again in a couple weeks. I hope it's another show just packed with sketches of his that got rejected when he was a writer. But please, no sequel to Lobster Diner. Don't mess with perfection. 3 hours ago, Ottis said: What the he’ll wasbtgat wedding location skit at the end? Is that a NY thing? The location of the venue was in NY, but I felt that they were going for something a little more universal. It was sort of a riff on those wedding/special event venues that are just a little...off. Like they seem fancy on the surface but then, yeah, they have that cheap pink soap in the bathroom and it's probably a front for organized crime.

What Steve Harvey did to Mo’Nique in that interview has been a big deal in Black-oriented media in the days since the show aired. That SNL referenced it at all means someone saw it worth mentioning but maybe didn't want to look like they were taking sides. Again, it was a lane I think SNL shoud've stayed out of unless they were also going to include someone representing Mo’Nique. Many think she was subjected to televised abuse at the hands of Harvey and that it was shameful even if they are supposedly good friends. Perhaps though neither Leslie nor Ego wanted to play her since Mo’Nique has been her own case of problematic in some very public ways. Meanwhile, Kenan will probably look for any excuse to trot out his Harvey impression. Hopefully this won't be the last time Don Cheadle gets to host. He was game for everything and has proven comedic chops. Edited February 17, 2019 by Joimiaroxeu Link to comment

When he said the line about being 6'7" and 185 pounds, that should have been funny, and the audience didn't even react. He's said he wants to retire from the character. Let him. Bring back Darrell Hammond or hire Anthony Atamanuik, who is so good you might think he was the real deal if you met him on the street.

Yeah, they played a little fast and loose there, because for that matter, Lady Gaga also has been nominated for an Oscar before, whereas this is Sam Elliot (Who was over on the ‘Vets’ side) first nomination. They should’ve just come up with some other kind of designation, because I spent more time focusing on that than I spent paying attention to the sketch. However, Don Cheadle himself was amazing. The monologue may have been one of the best “standup” type monologues I’ve seen from someone who isn’t a standup. He slayed everything he was given. He is just so insanely talented. If anyone hasn’t checked out his new show Black Monday, you should, because he is excellent in it. And Mulaney in March? Yes please, because with him writing his own sketches, I know the writing won’t be able to let him down. 5 Link to comment
JZL February 18, 2019 Share February 18, 2019 (edited) OMG the [air-quote] National Emergency [/air quote] was a knuckleball wafted right down the middle of the plate and SNL whiffed it by three feet. That was the most not funny CO in years. The Baldwin-Trump thing used to be funny but it's not 2016 anymore. It's simply been done way too many times at this point. They just need to get someone else with a fresh take on Trump if that's possible. But beyond that they just flat blew it. It's unclear what else they could have done, perhaps tripled-down on the whole national emergency concept where going forward Trump declares a national emergency for everything up to and including the Mueller investigation. Or they might have keyed off Ann Coulter's quip about the only national emergency is that Trump is an idiot.
