I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus was peak SNL though. Loved it.

WU was a miss, which is truly the harbinger of the whole episode any given week.

Macy’s ad was fantastic.

You’re right. I came in here hot after just watching.

Monologue was good.

We hated mommy kissing Santa. Oh well.

WU May have been its worst in years.

Zero chance Eddies new stand up special will be good, right?

It’s not exactly something you can stop doing for 30 years come back and knock it out. And as of now he hasn’t done any club shows to get back in the groove of it.

[Lee3691]

With the amount of money he got paid, hope he spent some of it on good writers

= already best ep of the season, hands down

[daveshookme]

Buckwheat? That's it, SNL should go off the air now.

[daveshookme]

"Merry Christmas homeboy, you're fired" has me legit coughing on laughter.

[DMBZeppelin]

I can’t believe they brought back Gumby

[neumdogg]

Gumby was absolutely amazing. I don’t remember the last time I laughed that hard at SNL.

[DMBZeppelin]

SNL has already uploaded most of the big sketches from tonight:

The only returning character they haven’t uploaded yet is Velvet Jones on Black Jeopardy. Here’s a crappy quality YouTube link if you want to see it, but it was one of the weaker sketches: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dePl0z7Nn9s

[DMBZeppelin]

SNL finally uploaded it if anyone wants it.

That episode was amazing. I don't remember lol'ing that much during SNL.

[BotheLaneFan]

Eddie Murphy still rules.

[DMBstandUP1984]

I mean he was good last night but he was doing his old characters

Unless he does 30 year old bits on his stand up special I still don’t think it will be good imo

[Ascf33]

Yeah I would have liked to have seen him play some new characters instead of just doing the old stuff. I don't blame him though. That's on the SNL writers.

Uhhhh, do you remember Delirious and Raw? Those are essentially “Eddie Murphy Hates Gay People pts. 1 and 2.”

Honestly I think it was fine. He hasn't been back in 30 years (unless you count that awkward 40th anniversary appearance)

[fridge112887]

Unpopular opinion: "Home for the Holidays" was my favorite sketch

Definitely the best SNL of the season

Yea that’s kind of my point

The content
Timing
Delivery

[ExistenceNow]

Watching now. This is hot garbage.

Hoping Lizzo saves it.

[scrock25]

Can somebody please tell me what a Lizzo is?

[ExistenceNow]

Ask your kids, boomer.

[scrock25]

Would an 8 or 4 year old listen to a Lizzo?

[ExistenceNow]

If the 8 is a girl, probably. I think you have boys though, so probably not.

[scrock25]

Accurate.... no clue what a Lizzo is.

We’re you asleep during the “I got hit by a truck” line during the monologue? That alone was the best joke of the season. Potentially decade.

[Tiduwho]

JFC, Eddie Murphy finally makes a joke at Cosby's expense after 10 years of leaving the obvious low-hanging fruit, and Cosby responds with full on scorched-Earth



Cosby still doesn't realize how much of a RAPING piece of shit he is apparently. Stop talking about advancements you made for colored people, you ruined that. You RAPED women and took their agency away from them.

I thought the guest had a pretty big say in what skits were performed? It was my understanding the writers pitch the talent the skits and they choose which ones they want to do.

[Lee3691]

Lizzo was and is awesome. That girl is going places.
