The host was great and the music guest was okay. Some of the sketches were funny but many were a miss. I miss the days when so many of the greats from SNL history also assisted with the writing. It just seems the last few years the writing has been very lacking. Daniel and the cast did the best they could with the material given.

Solid host, great musical guest

Daniel Kalkutta was fine as a host; once again the writing for some of the sketches was sub-par. Kate McKinnon was the standout cast member of the episode. St. Vincent was a great musical guest; one of the best in a while, especially after the mediocre performance last week.
St Vincent is a caricature of a Tarantino character

Definitely better than most of the episodes this season, great jokes and comedic timing. Daniel was a great host and very funny. Kate McKinnon killed it as always. Tbh I was very underwhelmed by the musical guest, and not saying I'm a huge fan of all the other performances this season but there was just so much dress up with no context and no meat to it. They should try and get some new talent and more band performances instead of just having a ton of pop performances.
Didn't laugh once other than weekend updare

A Waste of a Good Host
saroundell6 April 2021
Daniel Kaluuya was wasted with poor skit writing. Many of the skits seemed rehashed from earlier this season. Another Britney Spear skit when it's not funny.
The Weekend Update is normally good but "guy with a boat" and "old lady with younger guy" were so painful.
It's definitely time for major cast shake up.
