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

I thought it was pretty big news when it wasn't renewed for a second season.

Ah got it. I figured with the way it ended, that was the end of the story. Reading online, I guess the plan was to do something different.

i didn't notice her hopping up to cheer and bow, haha that's the right reaction to being a little kid who just got to be on TV.

I feel like Majors was in relatively few sketches, but I enjoyed this episode a lot. Skipped about halfway through the music, just wasn't grabbing me, last week I woulda said it was the venue but watching some random ancient SNLs this weekend, like, they can get good sound there evidently. That or 70s music just sounds good however.

Glad Squirm finally got a bit and it killed, hopefully they'll let her do more moving forward!

I didn't hate the robot character, but atari seemed maybe a bit nervous? They got on more of a roll towards the end. I think maybe also it's a voice that just works better in a room where it's quieter and you're closer and the guttural computer voice noises would land more than when trying to project and amplify to audience.

I liked the man park pre-taped bit, but I wish they'd stop kind of just dropping the sketch pitch into the sketch itself. "It's like a dog park, but for men" is the premise and they don't need to state it, they should just take the premise, make the jokes and let us go ahead and go "lol dog park 4 mans" because all of the bits will give that info without the narrator announcing it.

Saw this tweet from the SNL musical guests intro account:

The video threw me for a loop because it looks like it was relatively recent. Apparently Korn was on SNL in 2005! Isn't that way past when they were popular? Like 1999, sure, but 6 years later is surprising.

Opening sketch was pretty scattershot, but I did like the bit with the two liberal pundits.

"I feel like it kinda is, though"

Either Saweetie has way more known tracks than I thought and has something saved for the 2nd (big guest perhaps?), or she’s kinda blowing her load doing a medley first. Fun enough arrangement of the tracks at least.

How dare you accuse me of not loving family feud! lol but yeah but Kenan gleefully eating popcorn while the guests were confused made the sketch for me and I want that type of energy in the real world. I would watch "What's That Name?" religiously if it were an actual show.

Also this episode was kinda weak overall, but "The first GAY asian man to deapan on splash mountain" really got my goat.
