We had a feeling that the “Saturday Night Live” episode from this weekend was going to be huge. How could it not be? We’re talking about a show hosted by a comedy icon in Dave Chappelle, and it really goes even further than that. This was also the first show after the Presidential Election, and […]
Tonight, “Saturday Night Live” gave you an episode that really was all about tapping into a different era — while also confronting the issues that are still going on right now. First, you had an amazing performance of the late Leonard Cohen’s song “Hallelujah” by Kate McKinnon as Hillary Clinton. Then, you had the best […]
As we pointed out earlier this evening, we’re not really interested in reviewing the opening of this week’s “Saturday Night Live.” Sure, we do think that it was an “it will all be okay” moment to everyone who voted for Hillary Clinton in the election, but it was also meant to be a moving tribute […]
There was a giant elephant in the room (hey, the elephant is the symbol for the Republican Party) going into this weekend’s “Saturday Night Live,” and that was how quickly the show was going to bring up the Presidential election and, specifically, the victory of Donald Trump. They’ve really relished in some of his miscues […]
Tonight, a new episode of “Saturday Night Live” is coming on the air, and this one is certainly an oddity for a variety of different reasons. First things first, you’ve got Dave Chappelle hosting the show for the first time ever. It’s one of those things that you would’ve hoped to see happen back during […]
For its final show for the month of November, “Saturday Night Live” has decided that home cooking is what they want leading up to the Thanksgiving holiday. For the second time since departing the series, Kristen Wiig is going to return as the host of the show on November 19. Our initial reaction to this […]
There is another new episode of “Saturday Night Live” coming this weekend, and this one is going to be a little bit different. Dave Chappelle is not a guy known for appearing on a lot of late-night shows, or really appearing in many places in general. He’s notoriously reclusive, which is why it’s such a […]
The most popular impression of this election season, at least over the past few months, has been seeing Alec Baldwin play the part of Donald Trump on “Saturday Night Live.” While the politician himself may not be much of a fan of it — he even called at one point for the show to “retire” […]
Last night was the final night of primetime before election day, and as a result of that, what we ended up seeing was a wide array of shows performing far better than they did before. Who knows? Maybe the end of the World Series signaled an opportunity for some to get back into TV, or […]
Obviously, there are going to be many people out there who are off voting on this fine Election Day, and with that in mind, you may want to be reminded of a good laugh. “Saturday Night Live” provided many of them earlier this season when they ran what were a series of fairly entertaining debate […]
