Jeff’s Wacky SNL Review: Jason Momoa/Tate McRae

Momoas for All! (CREDIT: NBC/Screenshot)

It’s time to review Jason Momoa’s second time hosting SNL! I know him better as “Jason Mimosa,” although I rarely imbibe that early in the morning. Tate McRae is the musical guest, and I think I’ve heard her name before, but I somehow hadn’t heard her tunes yet.

Anyway, since Thanksgiving is knocking on the door, I’m reviewing each sketch of this episode by declaring what I’m thankful for.

Jeff’s Wacky SNL Review?: Timothée Chalamet/boygenius

Hangin’ with the boys (CREDIT: NBC/Screenshot)

I’m feeling a little chalamet today. That’s probably because I just watched the latest episode of Saturday Night Live, which was hosted by Timothée Chalamet. Am I also feeling like a genius, seeing as boygenius was the musical guest? Baby, I feel like a genius every day!

For the last episode, I reviewed each episode by asking a question, and it worked out so well that I decided to do it again!

Jeff’s Wacky SNL Review?: Nate Bargatze/Foo Fighters

2 Comments

You Foos! (CREDIT: NBC/Screenshot)

You’re not gonna believe this (unless you already know): Nate Bargatze hosted SNL. (He was surprised as we were.) He’s a stand-up comedian whose name I recognize, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen him in anything before this. I kind of remember him releasing a well-liked Netflix special a few years ago.

On the other end of the familiarity spectrum, the musical guest was one of the most frequent ever, with Foo Fighters making their ninth appearance (and their first since Taylor Hawkins’ passing, RIP).

Since I’m in an inquisitive mood, I’ve decided to review each of this episode’s sketches with a question.

Jeff’s Wacky SNL Review: Bad Bunny/Bad Bunny

Leave a comment

Hoppity Hop (CREDIT: NBC/Screenshot)

I’ve got a bad feeling about this…

I’ve also got a leporine feeling about this, which is to say: my SNL spidey sense is tingling over the fact that Bad Bunny has now completed his outing as both host and musical guest on the 2nd episode of the 49th season of Saturday Night Live.

I took copious notes while watching this episode on my DVR the following morning, and now I’m going to share all of those notes with you. Bon appetit!
