So this is gonna be a recurring bit, then? Alright then. Am I the only one who finds this painfully unfunny?

Is it just me or does Billie Eilish give off some huge (younger) ScarJo vibes with her new style? I think there is quite the resemblance, especially during the first musical act. Must have been weird for Colin. But maybe it's just the goon face blindness striking again.

Bring back MadTV so when there's a bad character you get to see it 15 times and at least one of those times will eventually make you laugh because of the "kristen schaal is a horse" principle.

I thought the first one with Angelo was really funny, but this one was too much of the exact same thing. They could keep the core concepts -- his shy mannerisms, weird underwhelming performance, and the contrast of getting or not getting simple vs. complex prompts -- but mix up where he is, how his performance works, etc. Giving it the exact same setting, with 2 people explaining the joke from a table, and him singing the EXACT same little not-song, already felt old a second time. Surprise is important in a joke, it's not funny if you know how the whole thing will play out beat-by-beat.

It was a bad sketch... which is probably why it was cut and didn't air... They just put it on YouTube.

This has been a recurring problem with SNL lately - repeating the exact same sketches beat-by-beat, with no variation. Take the cake sketch from a few weeks ago, for another example - they've done that exact same sketch at least three times now.

I think they might be trying to do "What up with that?" again with a few things. But that kind of repetitive joke/sketch has to be done well to make it funny every time when the whole joke is that it's the same every time. I think the Angelo stuff could be funny, there's good elements in there but it doesn't quite come together.

I’ve only ever seen Eilish look miserable in any photo I’ve seen of her, so seeing her smile for the first time, I noticed the resemblance too.

That sketch also gets funnier when you hear Hader's story about its origin and especially how Fred Armisen broke him and Kristen Wiig the first time they did it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXooblIutXM And here's the sketch, Armisen loving with them happens around :45. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXooblIutXM

I figured something was up when Bowen and Kyle Zoomed their respective interviews on Fallon and Seth on Thursday. Bowen not going down to 6 for Jimmy was weird enough, but Kyle not going a few feet over to Seth’s studio 8G was the real alarm bell. https://twitter.com/thatweekinsnl/status/1472306649075437568?s=21 As for tonight’s promos, they exist https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAXbkxoiHho https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0thAoUXNg1U There is also a great one where Rudd keeps trying to sound out Charli’s last “name,” which does not appear to be online anywhere I can find. It was run on the Today show this morning. I stupidly deleted it before clipping that, assuming I would find it online. C’est la vie my dudes. Never assume, always verify. Tonight, Paul Rudd joins the Five Timers Club, and Charli XCX joins the Two Timers Club. With no audience, it sure is a way to close out the year. We’ll see if they resist the urge to, ah, “sweeten” the audio. (Hint: They likely will not resist.) Tonight is also (supposedly) the final episode for director Don Roy King, who has been with the show since 2006. He stayed on for the first half of the season to help transition the show’s new director, Liz Patrick. I have yet to confirm that this will in fact be his last show, but that was what Don said right before the season began, that he would stay on through December. And tonight’s Vintage: Ellen Degeneras with No Doubt from December 15 2001. The thing I remember most about this episode was that it was during a brief period where NBC was running liquor ads on an experimental basis, which had been banned from network broadcast television for years at the time. Local stations were allowed to cover the scandalous 30 seconds with their own inventory if they deemed it too hot to air in their market, which many did, including my own station, WEAU. It was an ad for Guinness UDV whiskey, and I cannot locate a clip of it online. Anyway, pretty quaint to look back on that, now that hard alcohol has been back on broadcast television for some time. The actual show was entirely unremarkable, but it’s been a while since I saw it, so hopefully there’s some good stuff somewhere in there. Weird fact: Ellen’s episode of SNL predated her talk show by about 21 months. Her director was Liz Patrick, who left the show last year and will be taking over SNL directing next month.

Charli XCX posted:myself, caroline, christine and all our crews have worked so hard If they weren't in the habit of posting "cut for time" skits every week they could do one new dumb topical sketch and stitch the rest of the show together out of cut material. Or maybe they could just air some stuff that was Too Hot For Cut For Time.

The source said they were “not sure what they were going to do” as far as structuring the episode, adding that a “clip show” was even a possibility.
