Saturday Night Live Season 45 OT: I guess no one else was going to bother?
- Thread starter TheMan
- Start date
A lot of the current SNL has roots in Youtube. Kyle Mooney was on youtube so early that he actually got the username "Kyle"
Yeah, the Good Neighbor crew would've been good for this episode which is really weird that they didn't do one with them. I know Melissa Villaseñor also does Youtube but her stuff is more just standing in front of a camera and doing an impression, the people I listed do more sketches with editing and using props found in your everyday home. That's the kinda stuff that would work great for these type of episodes.
[edit]
Oh, looks like they did do one. Not in the style of Good Neighbor, though.

The laughter during Weekend Update was torture. Who the hell thought five people laughing was a good idea?
My favorite skit was the turtles while my roommate's favorite skit was the Kyle/Beck/Fred song which was so catchy.
It was a pretty mild episode but I didn't expect much. Weekend Update was decent but got better in the last half, especially when Colin read Che's joke. The Beck/Kyle/Fred sketch was my favorite of the night. I also liked the Turtles short, Aidy's little thing, and the $2000 rap thing. I didn't get any of Chloe's sketch or the Drake video. Plus, no Melissa or Cecily, the former not being there normally as it is.
So, is this a one-off or are they going to do it like this again next week? Though I really enjoyed this one, I feel like there's only so much juice they can squeeze out of Zoom meeting malfunctions or Pete Davidson music videos. I can only imagine that the TMNT bit was completed prior to social distancing.
Maybe they'll see how this one worked out before committing to more. If everyone had a green screen, they could probably pull more elaborate skits off
I guess they have to fulfill the 21 episodes order before the summer starts and the shelter in home order is not gonna end anytime soon, so this is the solution for the crew. Not to mention they probably can't cut the season short because of the ads. The rating of the last episode also did really well. They still have four more episode after this, assuming 21 episodes for the season. And honestly I'm fine with it since I need something to tell me it's gonna be fine.
Weekend update was rougher to get through this time, but that might just be because the production of the other sketches have been improved so much this time.
It's not just the cheesey laughs but zoom has a limitation on handling multiple audio streams.
First half was great. Quality dropped during/after Weekend Update.
Best sketch of the night was easily What's Up With That. Damn have I missed Sudekis' dance moves.
Also, I really hope Melissa does a skit based on her dirty sex talk sketches next episode. Probably one of the best recurring sketches that would work well with this format.

Well, it hardly feels like it, but apparently it's the last of these "at home" episodes they're doing
My wife and I wonder how he's on the show. Connections? Nearly every skit he's in is a weird, depressing short where he's a disgruntled teenage son and usually Beck Bennet or Mikey Day carries it.
I just know Cecily was done after this season. She's making a musical for Apple TV. My guess would be Aidy, Kyle, Beck and Kate as well if you go by the seven year thing.
Wait, is this confirmed? Haven't seen anything about her leaving.
