Let’s be honest: The past two weeks for “Saturday Night Live,” when you combine the quality of the sketches and the timeliness of the greatest hits, may be one of the best two-week runs we’ve ever seen. We’re not going to say that Kristen Stewart was an amazing host, but she did fine enough and […]
Saturday Night Live, SNL Wishlist
Over the course of the weekends during the month of February, what we’ve done is cultivate a series of “Saturday Night Live” articles that serve one primary purpose: Trying by whatever means necessarily to get the show to hire more people who are actually currently starring on TV to host!

Last week’s new episode, which featured the former “30 Rock” star (and his impersonation of Donald Trump), drew the show’s largest 18-49 rating since November with a 3.6 rating. This is […]
We know that “Saturday Night Live” is a show that loves to generate all sorts of controversy, and we’re sure that Michael Che is going to be getting plenty of attention for his takedown of Donald Trump during “Weekend Update” tonight. He called the President “honey,” and then went on with a series of extremely pointed barbs. […]
Tonight, Ed Sheeran was the musical guest for the latest episode of “Saturday Night Live,” and while on the show, he provided a good opportunity to let us hear some of his music. We admit that Sheeran is the sort of artist who we’re always a step behind — by that, we mean that our […]
