Also as a Swiftie this performance wasn’t her best. All Too Well as a 5 minute album track is a fan favorite and the 10 minute version has been a holy grail since she mentioned it in an interview so when she went to re-record her albums it was the perfect way to ensure a bunch of her fans would absolutely drop money on the vinyl. (It’s like the Snyder Cut of music.) https://youtu.be/tollGa3S0o8 The song is much better shorter, but I think she kinda knew that which is why she made a short film to go with it which has even more than what played behind her tonight. The film is really interesting because the song about a relationship between a young woman and a man who is probably too old (Jake Gyllenhaal, who is 9 years older than Swift, who he dated when she was 20). But, where the song was written by 21-year-old Taylor Swift at the end of the relationship, the short film is made by present, 31-year-old Taylor Swift, who has a decade’s worth of knowledge and perspective and has a better sense of the power imbalance between a 20/21-year-old and a 29-year-old, which the short film illustrates very well by not doing anything to make the actress playing young not-Swift look older. It’s sort of uncomfortable to look at because you can see the difference between them both in how they look and how they act, compounded by not-Jake being a smarmy dick who doesn’t really take his girlfriend seriously. There’s a song on her latest album called Tolerate It, which is of a piece with this short because it’s also about a young woman in a relationship with an older man who she feels doesn’t take her and her dreams and desires seriously, although it isn’t explicitly about any real person since her last couple albums have mostly been story songs and character pieces. The short film really makes the length of the song work for it rather than being a too long demo. Swift wrote and directed it herself and the person who worked as DoP did a really good job as well, it’s very well shot. I honestly sort of expect Swift to do at least a little more directing in the future.

Unrelated to the latest episode, but in the last SNL thread I asked if anyone knew who wrote the Stallone Orange Julius thread, and folks said it was Adam McKay. Thanks for the info! Saw that he confirmed it on Twitter too: https://twitter.com/GhostPanther/status/1062935554264723456?s=20 Does anyone know who wrote/writes "Whats Up With That"? I'm assuming Kenan?

He has been writing for the show since 2005 so it’s quite possible. Macdeo Lurjtux posted:Is that James Downey next to Phil Hartman? The one and only

that was a very solid episode and i think what helped is they didn't try to shoehorn the host into any ridicilious sketches, he was almost like another cast . well the cold open i thought was dumb but it got better after that

Yeah, I was surprised, this was a solid one! One thing I realized, is Jonathan Majors maybe the least well known host in recent history? As far as I can tell he hasn't had any sort of huge breakout role recently (but is going to be in more Marvel stuff). Does he just have amazing agents, or did I miss him in something huge?

But I usually find some humor in watching them break during a skit and he basically always breaks in a skit.

He’s really good in The Harder They Fall though the movie is about 40 minutes too long.

Rege-Jean Page is probably the least well known host recently just based on number of credits and crossover interest. Bridgerton was huge but he just hasn’t had as many different projects as other hosts.

i feel like with netflix's content model even their huge megahit shows are ephemeral, which makes that even more true. everyone forgot about bridgerton as soon as there was a New Show You Have to Know About Now.

The all time least known host award will always go to Miskel Spillman.

Bridgerton was huge but he just hasn’t had as many different projects as other hosts. I'm pretty-sure way more of middle America knows who Rege-Jean Page is. Wasn't Bridgerton Netflix's most-watched show up until Squid game? Loki seemed popular, but Jonathan Majors was in what, 2 episodes? And Lovecraft Country was canceled, right?

Lovecraft was meant to be one season. More of a miniseries than a regular series.
