Jeff “jmunney” Malone watches every new episode of Saturday Night Live and then reviews all the sketches and segments according to a “wacky” theme.

It’s a case of the Terrible Twos! Shane Gillis and Tate McRae are both in their SNL Toddler Era, as they simultaneously make their sophomore guest appearances on the March 1, 2025 episode.

Since this is the first episode after the 50th anniversary special, I’m going to review it by discussing whether or not I think each segment will end up being spotlighted in the 100th anniversary special.

Jeff “jmunney” Malone watches every new episode of Saturday Night Live and then reviews all the sketches and segments according to a “wacky” theme.

Well, we’re in the middle of Saturday Night Live‘s 49th season. The 12th episode just aired, and Mr. Comedian Shane Gillis was the host. He has a bit of a history with the show, as he was hired as a cast member back in 2019 but was then almost immediately fired after some past controversial comments emerged. That wasn’t really mentioned in this episode, besides one little moment during the monologue.

As for the musical duties, well ,those were handled by a fellow known as 21 Savage. He was born in London, raised in Atlanta, and this was his first time rapping in Studio 8H.

As for my review, I’ll be employing my ol’ reliable routine of just copying the notes that I wrote in my notebook while watching the show.
