Decent finale to cap off a good (not great) season. It was pretty uneven this year but I do like this cast of weirdos and Jost & Che have really matured and solidified Weekend Update.
This episode specifically, I thought Gyllenhal was a good host. You can tell he has acting chops and decent comic timing. He was a pro, not obviously reading his cue cards or breaking. I know everyone loved the Gosling episode but I’m sure he was high lol.
Being a season finale I was watching for telltale signs of cast departures but didn’t see anything. Kenan had lots of air time but no signature Kenan sketches or characters that would tip a farewell.
Season 50 will be pretty cool. Can’t wait to see how they honour it.
