It was OK, probably the best segment, but I played the real zoom call with the guy in the underwear after, and we laughed way harder at that.


Weekend update was the best segment, but the laugh track wasn't great.



I'll be honest, we gave each segment a minute or so and if it was falling flat we skipped to the next one.


What I wonder is why they didn't send everyone a good camera and microphone. I could barely make out the Ruth Ginsberg sketch.

Missed opportunity to have a naked ScarJo walk behind Colin Jost during weekend update. Would have been even funnier if she was in Michael Che's background.

Disappointed, missed it.

I saw an article with links to the monologue and most of the newscast

Any advice on how to stream the whole show?

NBC blocks everything and somehow my work VPN isn’t working. Maybe they route internal network traffic through the VPN and internet traffic through my regular home IP? Not sure.

Anyways, would like to watch it but it’s not even available on demand

Was that Jost’s house? I mean really. No way ScarJo is isolating there.

I applaud them for doing a show considering how they live and work in the current epicentre of all this and considering how they've all been personally affected.

The best of the whole episode, by far. "Wait, don't go to the bathroom! We can always see you!!!" Priceless. We just had a Skype mtg this morning with someone taking a long Leslie Nielsen's-type piss and flushing right in the middle of it.

On another note, to each their own, of course, but I have no idea what Kyle Mooney is still doing there. I can't remember one patently good, funny sketch with him in it as a lead in the past three seasons. I do understand weird and funny - David Spade, Norm McDonald, Kevin Nealon, Chevy Chase. But Mooney is just weird.

I agree. He's not my cup of tea either. He just seems rather juvenile to me.

It seems like Mooney and Bennett are a package deal.

The Kenan singing one with Charles Barkely was awful. I know it was meant to be annoying but man.

Yeah, this one is much better than the first one. Figured out some logistics, fedexed a green screen to everyone.

At least they didn't try having an audience laughing in the background of Weekend Update this time.

Kenan was really funny as OJ. Great line about SNL doing a second show remotely - expecting to do one then having to do another, and that he can relate. Gold

It was really good. Brad Pitt was hilarious as Dr Fauci. And a lovely gesture when he took off the hairpiece and thanked him.

The Davidson Sandler video was fantastic. Forgot Adam had such cute kids. And a hot wife.

Best line during Update was when Davidson told Jost that isolating has been hard on every one except Jost cuz he gets to shack up with ScarJo and so he’s probably hoping they never find a cure.
