I found tonight to be the best episode in years. The jokes at the end of weekend update had me in stitches. Even the Vin Diesel had be laughing.

Excellent episode!

Yea, that was a pretty great episode. I was dying during the Vin Diesel skit. Bennett's impression wasn't even that good, but the line delivery was hilarious.

1998 Hollywood Squares and Weekend Update were also very funny.

Weekend Update was hilarious. I also laughed hard at the dad shooting himself in the balls sketch and Vin Diesel.

I read that Kenan is likely staying but Pete Davidson is leaving. Would make sense given what he said during Weekend Update ("Thanks for watching me grow up here").

Pete and Cecily's bits on WU definitely felt like goodbye segments.

Weekend Update is consistently funny. Che and Jost have developed such great chemistry

Excellent episode!
Those black Superman jokes written by Che were exceptional. I love when Che and Jost write jokes for each other. They are always exceptional.

Lil Nas X was the best musical guest in quite a while. He's as talented as he is beautiful.

I've felt Cecily Strong has always been quite sharp, funny and pretty underrated. I'll miss her most from that group.

If anyone remembers the Dreams bit from last year's At Home Finale - it seemed if Cecily and Kate were leaving then - however with all that happened, it seemed they came back for one more run and now a larger group is going, which makes sense.

I think that might have been the best episode of the season. Most sketches were really good, when usually there's about 1 per show that I like.

Really cool behind the scenes look at 1994 SNL.

I miss Phil Hartman (and Chris Farley too obviously).

Man, those guys were easily one of the best casts in the history of the show. So many insanely talented and hilarious people during those years.

The name that excites me most there is Jason Sudeikis. Wasn’t he the original Joe Biden? Lots of potential for Ted Lasso content. And please please a What’s Up With That reunion!

Rami Malek will hopefully be an excellent night. Has he previously been a host? I don't recall seeing him on SNL before.

Oh god yes.

Such a good recurring skit, one of my all time favourite.

The last of the good old days when Tina Fey and Seth Meyers were head writers. Since they left the show has been pretty bad IMO.
