I liked the 'Where in the World is Kelly Anne Conway?' skit.
As for music, every artist this season but one (Maren Morris) had their last album in the Billboard top 10. Thirteen went #1 in the US or UK.
The Weeknd- #1 2016
21 Pilots- #1 2016
Bruno Mars- #2 2014 (surprised this never got to #1)
Lady Gaga- #1 2016
Solange- #1 2016
Tribe Called Quest- #1 2016
The XX- #2, UK #1 2017
Shawn Mendes- #1 2016
Maren Morris- #1 Country 2016
Chance The Rapper- #8 2016
Sturgill Simpson- #3, #1 Country 2016
Big Sean- #1 2017
Alessia Cara- #9 2016
Ed Sheeran- #1 2017
Father John Misty- #10 2017
Lorde- #3 2013
Chainsmokers- #1 2017
Harry Styles (One Direction)- #2, UK #1 2015
LCD Soundsystem- #10 2010
Haim- #6, UK #1 2013
Katy Perry- #1 2013
Maybe artists don't transcend genres as much these days, but these are all pretty successful acts. Although I'm not sure if most Canadians would even know who Alessia Cara is.
