Jeff “jmunney” Malone watches every new episode of Saturday Night Live and then reviews all the sketches and segments according to a “wacky” theme.
Good morning*, my dear SNL Review Reading Audience. It’s time for me to discuss the 15th episode of the 51st season of Saturday Night Live, aka the second time in history that Harry Styles has turned in double duty as both host and musical guest. (And you know I’m in the right mood for this, having gone for a 45-minute run on Sunday morning.) Has anyone else ever pulled double duty like this multiple times before? Yes, I’m sure of it. Who exactly, you may ask? Well, Britney Spears comes to mind, for one.
Anyway, now that I’ve provided that windup of context, I shall inform you that my Reviewing Gimmick for this episode will take inspiration from the recent anniversary of my arrival into the world, as I declare “Happy Birthday” to the most birthday-riffic element of each sketch and segment.

Jeff “jmunney” Malone watches every new episode of Saturday Night Live and then reviews all the sketches and segments according to a “wacky” theme.
Upon this Saturday Night Live Reviewing Morn, I’m in a pretty good mood, as it’s an unusually warm Sunday for early March in the Mid-Atlantic. I’m also in a good mood because the 14th episode of SNL Season 51 was (Spoiler Alert!) pretty dang funny! I wasn’t terribly surprised, as it boasted a returning favorite in the form of host Ryan Gosling. As for the tunes, they were provided by Gorillaz, merely making their SNL debut despite having already made us move for the better part of this century.
When Gosling was announced as this week’s host, I thought, “Is this his sixth time?” SNL‘s promotional team was apparently feeling similarly, with a video earlier this week suggesting that Mr. G. thought he was about to join the Five-Timers Club. But it turns out we were both overcounting, as this is actually only his fourth outing as emcee! So in honor of making an outsize impact in a limited time frame, my Reviewing Gimmick for this episode will be One Word for each sketch/segment, summing up my reactions as best as minimally possible.

Brrr! It’s been quite the eventful February. But the light at the end of the blizzard was new Saturday Night Live. For the 13th episode of the 51st season, we’ve got first-time host Connor Storrie and fourth-time musical guest Mumford & Sons. Since Connor is known for starring in the hockey-themed television program Heated Rivalry and since the Winter Olympics just wrapped up, my Review Gimmick for this episode will consist of declaring whether each sketch and segment is More Hot or More Cold.
