SNL 11/2/24

Kamala's supposed to appear tonight, but I don't know how they're going to get around the Equal Time rule. Is Trump going to pop in, too? If he does keep him away from any and all unsuspecting microphones.

I hope the Chappell Roan brat will be snubbed by Kamala.

[quote] Kamala's supposed to appear tonight, but I don't know how they're going to get around the Equal Time rule.

It's a comedic appearance, so there's no need for the Equal Time rule to apply.

Trump already hosted SNL. Doesn't compare.

I want Joe to show up and kick the shit out of Carvey.

Here R3, this if from 2015 when Trump hosted: “Saturday Night Live” is not an interview show, but a sketch comedy show that frequently skewers current events, so the bar may be a tad higher for it to earn the exemption."

Trump loves to bitch and call foul so I'm assuming he'll whine about her appearance. I believe he can request ad time in local markets to offset her cameo time on SNL tonight.

They should prosthetics on Chloe Fineman's face to make her look more mannish when she's playing Kuntlan Collins.

"The last time I hated a mic this much I tried to have him killed." LOL.

I was watching Trump speaking at his event earlier, on CPAN. HE doesn’t need to appear on here tonight, actually. Nobody could make up the shit coming out of his mouth tonight—embarrassing and scary that this clown might become leader of our country again.

^CSPAN

I just love Dana Carvey as Joe Biden.

cool intro

I'm in love with this woman!

Kamala hit the mark. Full of good cheer, honestly.

Kamala has lightened her hair or got highlights.

That was cute, and Kamala came off wonderfully. She was radiant.

Kamala was magnificent and is far prettier than Maya.

Kamala looks so pretty and joyful in that skit.

Fantastic intro! Kamala did great.

This might sound weird, but I think Maya wears makeup to make her skin look darker when playing Kamala

What R14 and R15 said. Fingers-crossed it’s infectious next Tuesday. Our country really needs a return to a focus on positivity, and not going back to one about orange anger, revenge, screaming and tackiness. 🙏🏼

Who told John Mulaney he was funny?

Mulaney with the dad jokes is boring

His mom, probably.

John Mulaney looks like shit.

I didn't know he and Olivia Munn were married.

Did Mick Jagger eat him tonight for supper?

Can we stop him from talking about his kids, wife and family somehow?

Mulaney used to be funny

Kamala is a good sport.

Mulaney SUCKED!

They must pay extra salary to the in-house musician with the mad-scientist gray afro and the Morticia Adams one behind him, to appear amused by the guest hosts’ unfunny monologue jokes each week.

I fucking hate Andy Fucking Samberg with the heat of ten bilion galaxies.

Mulaney's hosted episodes used to be the highlights of the season.

But I don't have high hopes. His last one was weak and full of retreads, and that monologue was poor.

How original another game show skit

lol Tim Kaine

Tim Kaine. Remember how hyper he was as opposed to Pence during the debate?

Whewww…thank goodness for that plutonium-made, indestructible gameshow-skit set that’s never dismantled in between episodes ever!

Milaney’s like a Caucasian Bowen.

I want to fuck Michael Longfellow's brains out.

^Mulaney’s

I like Sarah as Margaret Atwood.

I likes the game show.

Here's the skit.

Mulaney's had a chin implant

The Beppo skit is pretty good.

I would like to Beppo stuffed animal.

I did have to laugh when Tim Kaine walked out.

As far as game show skits goes, that was a good one.

Beppo seemed like a lot of production for not much of a laugh.

Going. On. Too. Long, learn to better edit potentially funnier skits!!

I want Andy Samberg’s dick in my box.

I give Tim Kaine a lot of credit for agreeing to that skit.

[quote]I fucking hate Andy Fucking Samberg with the heat of ten bilion galaxies.

I love him. Cute and funny.

I don't know if I like the Jason Bateman face on Mulaney.

I hate this commercial for the iPhone16. It's the father's birthday and the wife forgot. They make the wife look like a sociopath. What demo are they trying to appeal to?

Pete Davidson back from the dead. Again.

And Cheetolini's rage tweets in 3 . . . 2 . . .1 . . .

This musical is not working

Port Authority..... zzzzzzzzz......

Mulaney has some puffy eyes

Kenan should be banned from singing.

Does this guy always play a Latino?

Rehashing the old Mulvaney LaGuardia skit. So lame.

Kenan should be banned from show business.

Port Authority Milk is nowhere near as the Sushi episode or the Lobster episodes

Everything on Mulaney is puffy. He looks barely awake.

He's drinking heavily.

The audio is terrible. It may not be a bad thing.

This is like a bad grade school play

They should have known when to say when on the musical sketches. The last two were sad diminishing returns.

I enjoyed the singing skit. He threw everything in there.

I liked the Mulaney white guy doing the Cha Cha Slide with his black girlfriend's family sketch, wonder if they will do that again?

I think it is official that Mulaney has lost his mojo.

Sad that he has gone. post-funny..

Chappell Roan looks like a Drag Race contestant.

Quite big ass, Eddie.

She looks like she should be on The Rocky Horror Picture Show

Mulaney has some heavy 1980s style nasolabial folds.

Booze or smokes?

I still like Mulaney.

Love a good dragshow performance.

Bride of Frankenstein? Halloween is over.

Why do we hate her?

[quote]Mulaney has some heavy 1980s style nasolabial folds. Booze or smokes?

Probably both.

I like Chapell Roan’s voice but she seems super unlikable.

Che SUCKS!?!!!

She has referred to herself as a drag queen. I like her.

Heidi Gardner should have been fired four seasons ago.

How long is this WE? This midget Marcello overacting again.

WTF this is just bad

LOVED Alyssa on Update. She made me laugh just sitting there.

I love when they let Marcello loose. :D

Mulaney is looking worse and worse as the show goes on.

I thought Reagan got rid of equal time.

Sadly, and not entirely oddly, Keenan’s Little Richard seems to be the comic highlight of tonight’s episode.

This 2nd song is pretty awful.

I like Chappell Roan.

I like a big booty!

I don't understand one iota of Chappell Roan's appeal.

Roan's one of us? Throw her back.

R93 She's Gaga for the generations that missed her.

No R89, equal-time rule is still in effect.

was there no group ending?

For me the ending was a picture of Mulaney in a dog costume

love the Teri Garr tribute

oh here's the ending

On the West Coast it went a couple of minutes long but there was a traditional ending.

This political ad with "Dr. Sharon" her vocal fry reminds me of an SNL parody ad.

No, R97, R98, they signed off as they always do.

No, there was a traditional group goodnights. It was quite long.

Kaine came out with the cast.

On Peacock, they cut right after Mulaney said his thank yous.

No H-O-T-T-O-G-O?!

Mulaney is morphing into Jason Bateman without the sex appeal.

Disappointing. .

Kamala was the highlight of the show, I should have turned it off after the opening sketch

The SNL player Michael Longfellow who played the What’s That Name game show host is boring and unappealing as fuck and they use him quite a bit. I just don’t get his appeal. 💤

What’s the deal with this Chappell Roan? Why all the love for this flake? Wasn’t she the bitch that made a point of saying she wasn’t endorsing anyone for President?

R 81, I’ve been saying that for years. I stopped watching for a few seasons because of his ugly unfunny ass. I will never forget him sharing those horrendous jokes about gymnast Simone Biles’ sexual assault and he NEVER got held accountable for that. I pray he’s fired after this 50th season along with half the cast.

I actually liked that first song by Chappelle Roan. Name?

I liked the show, especially the opening. The worst skit was the sit-com talk show, and it wasn't nearly as bad as far too many of them from over the years. Hey, did everyone notice that some butt-hurt MAGA piece of shit went all the way down this thread and FF'd every single post? What a loser.

Apologies to all the butt-hurt loser MAGA pieces of shit on here: it looks like the FF button is faded out on every post of every thread. Whatever could this mean?

[quote]She's Gaga for the generations that missed her.

Except Gaga isn’t a cunt.

R111 pink pony club

John Mulaney looks awful. I hope he’s okay because I really like him.

Is this the comedy of a drug free Mulaney?

Was this Lorne's farewell to rampant drug use?

Mulaney has a few Mulaney sketches he reworks, and Port authority Milk (Diner Lobster, Times Square Underwear, Bodega Bathroom, Airport Sushi) and Family Bonds/Little Richard were continuations of Mulaney's themes. The Family Bonds episode was a lame extension of previous TV retrospectives that featured incest and pedophilia. I was hoping for necrophilia. But call me a traditionalist, I like his old face and his old addictions. John is not funny. His demons are.

Oh, and the singer, WTF? She had a huge padded ass for the first song and then shows up with white girl booty for the second song? Is this cultural appropriation of Negress boo-tay?

Kamala and Maya were great!-Full circle. Best of Luck to all of us.

And it showed that Kamala is leaps and bounds prettier than Maya.

I couldn't wait for last night's episode - Mulaney hosting (I love him), the weekend before election day, and the Trump MSG fiasco from last Sunday. A recipe for a 90 minute non-stop laugh fest. Buy was I disappointed - I chuckled a few times, waiting for 'the funny' to happen in this episode.

Mulaney has gained weight and he has aged. At 42, he now looks like a man - he has lost his 'frat boy' youth look we've been accustomed to. He's still handsome and sexy to me, but he is showing his age these days (aside from drying out, it could also be the stress of being a dad to two toddlers). I liked when he wore his hair parted on the side in his 30s - parted in the middle now (trying to look youthful) isn't working.

For me, the opening sketch fell flat. I've always loved the sketches on Trump, but let's face it: the real Trump has now become far more comical than any caricature of him.

The game show sketch felt like an 'after-thought'. It could've been much funnier without that Longfellow guy. When Tim Caine is the funniest in the sketch, something is very wrong.

Weekend Update landed with a thump. The best thing about this week's update was Marcello (I so want to lick his balls and give him a handjob at the same time).

The inevitable musical sketch was a shadow of its former selves. Not nearly as funny as the ones from past seasons.

Chappel Roan did what she was supposed to do - entertain (though I do like 'Pink Pony Club' - catchy song). She's still trying to 'shock' the audience with her appearance, as though it's 1983. Boy George and Cyndi Lauper did it better, Chappel. I say she is forgotten by next November.

As someone said, the audio was off throughout the whole episode. Not sure what was happening there.

Kinda lost in all the Kamala reaction was the genius of the Trump part of the cold open. They don't usually have writing of that quality but they captured the decline of that sad old piece of shit and his own awareness of his collapse and turned it into comedy. It was a fantastic piece of scripting and performance. Transcended SNL's usual failure when it aims high at a concept, like Port Authority.

I would love to see Kenan do Little Richard again. That was HILARIOUS! 😂

r122, portraying Trump, has gone from satire to hyperreality.

Brilliant.

Mulaney looks better with some weight on him.

My favorite part:

John: The system is down. We are accepting only cash or sex.

Pete Davison: I have cash.

John: Oh. That's too bad.

R112, R113, if the FF is faded out it means you have used up your allotted amount of FFs for a specific duration.

Pot. Kettle. Black.

Tim Kaine showed surprising comedy chops, but it was melancholy seeing him. Perhaps Lorne wanted to show us what happens when you don't vote. We could have had 8 years of Hillary, then Kaine in 2024. He would make a fine President- lights years from Orange Turd.

R112 complaining about trolls FF’ing all the posts is better than most of the sketches were last night.

It was a decent show, not up to Mulaney's past hosting stints, but still good. My favorite bit of the evening was Kenan as Little Richard. I actually laughed out loud twice. Also, I liked the Tim Kaine bit.
