Wow, I thought that was another strong episode.
The cold open and monologue were each great.
The CNN skit was fantastic - I haven't laughed that hard for an entire SNL skit in some time, nor I have heard the audience bring one to a pause with their applause in some time. They just nailed afternoon CNN so perfectly.
I also loved the Neurotology skit. Haven't seen 'Going Clear' yet, but it was obviously indebted to it. Heck, even Weekend Update was great, though I'm a sucker for Jedediah's reviews.
And I hear ya on the weirdness, but perhaps my favourite skit from last night was one of the weirdest things I've seen on SNL in some time, i..e the final Easter skit with Michael Keaton and Portia. What the heck was that? Made no sense at all yet I couldn't stop laughing throughout.
Great stuff.
