SNL's Continued Downward Spiral Thread

Not sure if buying a CD or remembering Veruca Salt makes you (and me) more ancient!

 

Can’t fight the seether!

Eat some raw hamburger!

 

Volcano Girls was the fucking SHIT. The best hair metal song of the grunge era.

Also, to tie this all together, they are one of the few musical guests on SNL to only perform one song...because host Sting swiped their second one!

Emma Stone should be good coming up.

Go figure that two of the biggest show-stealers have been a pair of kids.

 

Of all the SNLs I've seen, this is one of them. Terrible. Even Update was meh. Oh well, they can't all be classics.

 

Very disappointed, especially with as much character and personality as Jason Momoa has. His monologue was just a PSA for the environment and a commercial for his water.

 

Okay. The second-to-last sketch of the night was pure Sarah Sherman. Best of the night.

 

Thought the episode was ok but nothing special. The Sarah Sherman tennis sketch was outstanding.

 

I turned it off after Update, so my first sight of that sketch was on social media and YouTube. I saw the thumbnail and thought for a second they brought Bobby Moynihan back for a cameo as the dude with a beard.

 

The Sherman tennis skit was the best one of the night by default (tennis term!) but it was only really funny when she got to walk around with a hole in her stomach and then with no head. Before that it was just meh. She sold it thereafter.

 

The Rome song was funny

 

The musical guest was brutal.
