Jeff’s Wacky SNL Review: Emma Stone/Noah Kahan

Oh man, I’m totally Stoned. (CREDIT: NBC/Screenshot)

This here is a review of the December 2, 2023 episode of Saturday Night Live, hosted by Emma Stone with musical guest Noah Kahan. It’s her fifth time, and interestingly enough, a few days ago, I had a dream in which I met her right after she hosted this episode. So I think that’s a good sign!

For this review, I will be transcribing the notes I took while watching the episode, which I’ve done a few times before, and I enjoyed how it worked out, so here we go again!

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.
