Jeff “jmunney” Malone watches every new episode of Saturday Night Live and then reviews all the sketches and segments according to a “wacky” theme.

Wow, would you look at that? For the 9th episode of the 51st season of Saturday Night Live, we’ve got Ariana Grande as host and the one and only Cher as musical guest. I appreciate this reality we’re living in. At least this little slice of it.

As this is the last new episode before the 25th, and I’ve been in a particularly festive mood this holiday season, my reviewing gimmick for this episode will consist of saying “Merry Christmas” to whatever aspect of each sketch most deserves it.

Thank you for visiting this Saturday Night Live Review Space once again. In this edition, we’re dissecting the eighth episode of the 51st season. It was another British Invasion, as England natives Josh O’Connor and Lily Allen formed the guest lineup.

For my Reviewing Gimmick this time, I’ll be taking inspiration from the upcoming new SpongeBob movie. Thus, my take on each segment will be Bikini Bottom-themed as I utilize Mr. SquarePants’ signature declaration and declare what I’m Ready for from each sketch.

Adding a little something to December (CREDIT: NBC/Screenshot)

Jeff “jmunney” Malone watches every new episode of Saturday Night Live and then reviews all the sketches and segments according to a “wacky” theme.

Will this be a December to remember? Well, laughter is often associated with memory, so hopefully SNL Season 51 will do its part to make its answer to that question a resounding “yes!” We have our first set of evidence in this regard in terms of the Melissa McCarthy-hosted December 6, 2025 episode, with musical guest Dijon. This is Ms. McCarthy’s 6th time hosting, but it’s my first time using a new reviewing gimmick, as I will assess where each sketch and segment should be categorized on the pH Scale. That is to say: I’ll be determining if they’re more acidic (less than 7) or more basic (greater than 7, up to 14). Am I being metaphorical here? Let’s find out!
