Jeff “jmunney” Malone watches every new episode of Saturday Night Live and then reviews all the sketches and segments according to a “wacky” theme.
What’s up, brosephuses and sistras?! Wow, after 50 years of all that, they’re still going. That’s right, I’m talking about the Season 51 Premiere of Saturday Night Live.
The guest lineup is host Bad Bunny and musical guest Doja Cat, so there was really no way around it: I’m going to review each sketch animalistically. So that means I might give them 4 out of 5 Buffaloes, or I might say they’re Clucking like a Chicken. Let’s get into it!

Damn, there were plenty of songs that made me go “Damn” in 2020. Check ’em out below!
1. U.S. Girls, “4 American Dollars”: What can I say, I love a good song about economic enlightenment that you can totally shake your little butt to.
2. Miley Cyrus, “Midnight Sky”: Miley is a rock star for the ages. It’s 100% official.
3. Doja Cat, “Say So”: Pure neon-soaked euphoria.
4. Cannons, “Fire for You”: Listen to the words she’s using: “I was on fire for you.” It feels like that to some of us sometimes, doesn’t it?
5. Dua Lipa, “Don’t Start Now”: Oh wow, that’s a lot of disco in the top 5. It’s back, baby! “Don’t Start Now”? More like “Don’t Stop Ever!”
