Going shopping for good SNL (CREDIT: NBC/Screenshot)
Jeff “jmunney” Malone watches every new episode of Saturday Night Live and then reviews all the sketches and segments according to a “wacky” theme.
For the fifth episode of the fifty-second season of Saturday Night Live, the talent booking team selected Druski as the host and The Strokes as the musical guest. I know the former mainly for his T-Mobile commercials, though apparently he’s also cultivated a reputation for being entertaining in his own right. Meanwhile, I know the latter mainly for their performances on SNL, as this is their fifth time, after all. That’s not to say I know them only through SNL. I also know them from hearing them on the radio and listening to their albums and singing at least one of their songs on Rock Band and at karaoke.
Now that we’ve established my familiarity with the guests, let’s move forward. My Review Gimmick for this episode shall be assessing each sketch and segment with One Word Each.
