One Thousand, Nine Hundred, Seventy-Five Musical Guests! How do you measure music in an episode? (CREDIT: NBC/Screenshot)
The fifteenth episode of the forty-eighth season of Saturday Night Live was hosted by Jenna Ortega with musical guest The 1975. This occurred on my post-birthday weekend, which is good, because I enjoy watching new SNL this time of year. Indeed, I love watching new SNL at any time of the year, including around the anniversary of my birth.
Since Jenna Ortega is one of the current stars of the Scream franchise, I will be reviewing each sketch of this episode in ALL CAPS.

Jeff’s Wacky Homophonic SNL Review: Travis Kelce/Kelsea Ballerini

Kelce, meet Kelsea. Kelsea, meet Kelce. (CREDIT: NBC/Screenshot)
The March 4, 2023 edition of Saturday Night Live was hosted by Super Bowl-winning football professional Travis Kelce, with the musical guest being country performer Kelsea Ballerini. It was the first time on the venerable sketch institution for both of them, a huge departure from last week’s episode.
In case you were wondering, yes, “Kelce” and “Kelsea” are pronounced the same, so therefore I just had to include homophones in my thoughts on every one of this episode’s sketches.

Jeff’s Wacky SNL Review: Woody Harrelson/Jack White

Five! Five-Timer SNL! (CREDIT: NBC/Screenshot)
Woo-hoo! This is Woody Harrelson’s fifth time hosting Saturday Night Live. His first was all the way back on November 18, 1989. And guess what? It’s also musical guest Jack White’s fifth time! (That does include his appearance with ex-wife Meg when the White Stripes were the MG back in October 2002.) So there’s really no other option for me besides reviewing the sketches of this episode with five (5) words each!

I Can Haz Sooper Bowl Kumercial? (CREDIT:

Usually I post my list of favorite Super Bowl the night of The Big Game or the morning after. But this year, I decided to wait a few days and see what stuck with me. Because, after all, the really truly madly deeply classic commercials are the ones that you can’t get out of your head.
