When people say they don't like Melissa Mccarthy (and there is a lot of them).It's because they think overweight women aren't worthy of liking.

She is a GOAT. Fearless physical comedian willing to play unappealing characters. Looks like she has lost lots of weight (not that it should matter).

She is, I could give a fata less about her weight, I wouldn't say she is 'willing' to play those roles, she relishes them and creates them.

Fata you Jill and your Bob haircut.

This is probably the funniest comedic scene in history.

I would guess that Melissa McCarthy is unliked because she plays unlikeable characters.

Although, there are a ton of female comedians who are not well liked by men.

I love McCarthy.



However, i didnt find this SNL to be that great.

They should make a sequel to Spy

Her and Jason Statham were hilarious in that

I like McCarthy most of the time, but I don't think anyone that dislikes her is automatically a sexist who hates large people. I'm positive that cross-section exists, but seems pretty unfair to automatically put anyone who's not a fan into those categories. Comedy takes a lot of forms and different tastes. I can see why McCarthy can grate people. She can be very Will Ferrell-esque, loud and in-your-face.

This was cut for time, and it should have been left in what was a strong episode

I'm sick of skipping the cold open to avoid seeing Trump portrayed as a clown instead of the vile, corrupt, narcissist he is. I shut off the show as soon as it started so I don't know if it was any good. I read they're using AI images now so maybe it's better not to watch.

SNL and Tim Robinson related.

Interesting to hear about the 5 to 1 spot.

Looks like this week will be Bowen Yang’s last episode.

I was expecting him to leave at the end of the last season, so that's not super surprising. He has been pretty scaled back so far this season, and I think he missed at least one live show (but did appear in a couple pre-taped segments) because he was busy with other stuff.

mid-season is pretty crazy. Guessing he got a film role that was coinciding with the show and called it a day.

Apparently they STILL can't miss a show to film a movie or anything, no exceptions. So even a star player like Yang in a huge film like Wicked was having to fly back and forth from London to New York. It's almost like SNL purposely pushes people out beyond a certain level. It keeps a fresh cycle but also has them losing some of the cast that keeps people tuning in.

Damn, that's a shame. Yang is super talented and very funny. I'm sure we'll be seeing him in plenty of stuff moving forward.
