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.

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!

Jeff’s Wacky SNL Review: Glen Powell/Olivia Dean

November 16, 2025

November in New York! (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.

Since this is my last time reviewing SNL before November 27, 2025, I shall now say: Happy Thanksgiving! I know my fans expect me to wish them a festive Turkey Day, and I simply can’t disappoint.

Back to the sketches and the variety, this particular episode that I’m reviewing right now boasts host Glen Powell and musical guest Olivia Dean. This represents the first time for both of them in those official capacities, marking the second episode in a row in which that was the case. I’m pretty sure that’s not the first time that has happened in the show’s history.

Since Glen is currently starring in The Running Man, and I’ve been known for plenty of running myself, the reviewing gimmick for this episode will involve me incorporating Running into my thoughts on each sketch and segment. So for example, I might say, “Run, don’t walk, to YouTube to watch this sketch”, or “This sketch really had my motor running.”

Did everyone survive Halloween okay? Well, you must have, if you’re conscious enough to read these words! Lol. Anyway, thank you once again for visiting this little corner of the Internet where I review episodes of Saturday Night Live. This particular review is focusing on the fifth episode of the fifty-fifth season, with a couple of first-time guests in the form of host Nikki Glaser and musical guest sombr. She’s been active in the comedy community for about two decades, while he’s been active on the Earth for less time than she’s been alive. So there should be something in here for everybody!

For the review gimmick for this episode, I shall return to an old favorite and transcribe the notes I wrote in my notebook while watching.
