    Just saw it. Disappointing. I was hoping Bonzi Wells was going to be on. Or at least Rod Strickland.

    Just for name recognition, I guess Pippen. Highly doubt it's ol' Nards.

    So glad that SNL is being consistent with up to date references.

    I love that guy's imitations but I couldn't get into his Walton with the voice being so wrong.

    Yeah this would have been funny 20 years ago.

    SNL sucks now.

    Yep. Did a bad impression of someone nobody’s heard of anymore that wasn’t funny. His Trump is dead on though.

    SNL is almost always good.

    It's "cool" to say it sucks, but then look at the cast over the past decade + - Sarah Sherman is hilarious, Kate McKinnon, Aidy, Kristen Wiig, Bill Hader, Che and Jost, Cecily Strong, Vanessa Beyer, Chloe Fineman...

    Give me a break. That is talent!

    I think they under used Melissa Villaseñor. Tho their best skit is Weekend Update.

    I have to admit that the last SNL with Woody was not very good overall...just bad writing and poor execution in my view. I didn't get through most of the skits without clicking out early...and that's pretty rare.

    I just don't find them funny. My feeling for a while is that they come up with a funny idea for a skit, but then they just go on too long.
