Return of some funny bits.
kimcoxmonm24 October 2021
I actually thought this episode was really solid. Aside from last week's show with Rami Malek, it's been a long time since there was a consistently funny 90 minutes. Jason Sudeikis at his best with his oft times dry and sardonic to the "deer in the headlights" goofiness he is known for. I enjoyed seeing him reprise is role as The Devil on Weekend Update , Joe Biden of 2013 and tracksuit-dancing dork in What Up With That; a nod to Fred Armisen in that as well. He received a wild reception during the monologue. The funniest skit, hands-down, was the Science Room bit. I was almost in tears as he went of on his idiot students.

Speaking of Weekend Update - it was great. The news bits were hilarious and sometimes cringe inducing yet on point. It was nice seeing the extremely polically INcorrect perv with a small penis aka The Guy Who Bought a Boat. That is ALWAYS cringy but fantastic.

Even though the show has been spotty over the years, it's nice to still find a show that can parody and saterize what's wrong with society and it's offenders and have it's off color moments. They have a talented and diverse cast. We need a break from all the in-your-face "don't want to step on anyone's toes and screw telling a good story" crap. It's a show for adults, not kids. If you can't take it, there are plenty of other things to watch.

Very Enjoyable

Jason Sudeikis, as expected, brought out the laughs. I died laughing during the "Mellen" sketch! Brandi Carlile was just meh. The cold open was funny too. Overall, a great episode!

Classic SNL

This episode provided a breath of fresh air. It's one of the only episodes so far this season that had funny bits throughout the entire show. Hopefully we see more episodes like this in the new year.

Can we actually make Mellon happen?

I think I'd actually watch that show. The science skit was hilarious and the Joe Biden intro was incredibly accurate lol. Weekend update was funny as usual.

Great episode

I couldn't stop laughing during mellen and jake's non stick underwear.

All other segments were solid too.

Hopefully this good form that they've had recently continues.

Best episode of the last seven seasons!

It was refreshing to have Jason back and to laugh again. Highlights were Mellen, the devil, and what's up with that. Also, SNL needs more Chloe. She is one of the best cast members and she is hardly used.

WE and Brandi

Weekend Update and Brandi Carlile were the only good parts of this episode. Jason Sudeikis was truly a non-factor -- only his devil was entertaining. Everything else was just bad, bad, bad and devoid of humor..

DOA

Sudeikis seemed oblivious to the difference between being nothing more than an annoying dorky presence in every sketch or actually delivering a funny performance. He was like an uninvited guest throughout entire the tedious 90 minutes. The show was a dud.
