This was probably in the top half of the season quality-wise but still pretty disappointing considering how hilarious JLD is; this was mostly just average. This season has been pretty mediocre as a whole
Lot of Kate tonight, which is nice. God Is a Boob Man probably the highlight tho, Julia didn't get much good material. Weekend Update seemed unusually mean spirited and apathetic.
Honestly thought Pool Boy was pretty funny. Some good stuff here, was disappointed by WU for the first time in a while. It was a decent episode.
Yeah, I really liked pool boy. All the pre-taped stuff hit, which is unfortunately an all-too common occurrence for a LIVE show. I also wish the show wouldn't attempt more technically difficult things like making Russell Crowe a hologram. They need to relearn how to block and pace a sketch first, there's been so many amateur issues this season.
I think they've been doing more pre-taped bits so it's less hectic setting up the next set and more time for performers getting into costumes/make-up.
Pre taped bits are easier and you can reshot and edit parts and get exactly what you want. I'm pretty sure that's why they're doing more and more.
prince was such a great guitarist, it's a shame he doesn't get recognized as much for his skill on the instrument.
