And then, last week, we looked at how The Big Show" ("The Giant") Paul Wight nearly stole NBC's Saturday Night Live from Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson when The Rock hosted back in March 2000 But there was something I left out of last week's post that's been gnawing at me over the past week, mostly[...]

This time around, I get to combine my love of NBC's Saturday Night Live with the WWE, back when they were "WWF" before those nasty pandas forced them to change their name And with SNL on hiatus until December 3rd (with host Keke Palmer and musical guest SZA set to take the stage), it couldn't[...]

Comedian/actor Dave Chappelle took the stage of NBC's Saturday Night Live last night with an opening monologue that addressed rapper Kanye West and NBA player Kyrie Irving's recent controversies surrounding comments and social media postings viewed by many as antisemitic and promoting antisemitic beliefs If you didn't get a chance to check out our review,[...]

Okay, so since we've been kicking off our reviews with a look at the "host rankings" for Lorne Michaels & NBC's Saturday Night Live Season 48, we're not going to change things up now Except Dave Chappelle presents an interesting dilemma, one that has him co-holding the title with Megan Thee Stallion for top season[...]

One of the things that viewers of Lorne Michaels & NBC's Saturday Night Live have come to expect over the years is unexpected guest stars popping up in the middle of the show And with actor/comedian Dave Chappelle (and musical guest Black Star) set to take the main stage of Studio 8H this weekend, we're expecting nothing[...]

After the release of the midweek sketch earlier today, we're getting a chance to check in with this week's host, actor/comedian Dave Chappelle (with musical guest Black Star) & the cast of Lorne Michaels & NBC's Saturday Night Live during read-thru With reported (but not confirmed) rumblings among the writers over the choice of Chappelle as[...]

Maybe we're just being a bit paranoid and over-precautious, but we can't help feeling that this week leading up to actor/comedian Dave Chappelle (with musical guest Black Star) taking the stage to host Lorne Michaels & NBC's Saturday Night Live could prove to be an "interesting" one But for now, we're rolling along with how SNL's[...]

So when it comes to our Season 48 scorecard for Lorne Michaels & NBC's Saturday Night Live, it's still Megan Thee Stallion sitting on the throne, followed by Brendan Gleeson, Amy Schumer, Jack Harlow, and then (a distant) Miles Teller That brings us to the Tuesday before a new show, which means it's time for an[...]

Thanks to NBC releasing its midseason schedule, we now know when we will be getting a chance to check out series star & EP Melissa Rauch, co-star/EP John Larroquette and writer/EP Dan Rubin's upcoming sequel spinoff of Reinhold Weege's popular sitcom Night Court. In fact, beginning on Tuesday, January 17th, we'll have two opportunities to check it[...]

Okay, so as far as how we're ranking Season 48 episodes of NBC's Saturday Night Live? Our scorecard still has Megan Thee Stallion setting the bar, with Brendan Gleeson a solid second After last week, we have Jack Harlow in the fourth spot while Miles Teller's season-opener still rests comfortably in the basement That means[...]

Even with host Amy Schumer and musical guest Steve Lacy still live from New York, NBC & Lorne Michaels' Saturday Night Live is already looking ahead to next week And we have a feeling SNL will be creating some buzz for next weekend, with actor/comedian Dave Chappelle hosting on November 12th with musical guest Black Star[...]

Okay, so before we jump into a look back at tonight's host, Amy Schumer's prior history with NBC & Lorne Michaels' Saturday Night Live (with musical guest Steve Lacy joining her tonight), there's something that's been bugging us over the past two days So what happened to the on-set promo with Schumer, Lacy, and an[...]

Usually, on a Thursday night, NBC & Lorne Michaels' Saturday Night Live would've posted an on-set promo with host Amy Schumer (Inside Amy Schumer) and musical guest Steve Lacy But for whatever reason, that didn't happen this week But what we did get earlier today was SNL cast member Ego Nwodim (one of our major[...]

When audiences first see Ty Doran's older Cal on Manifest season three, it would have been also the last time seeing his incarnation if NBC had its way The actor took over for Jack Messina, who played the character for the bulk of the series, but thanks to Netflix, we'll see his and the finale[...]

So last weekend's episode of NBC & Lorne Michaels' Saturday Night Live was a strong one with regards to how the Season 48 cast & writers are coming together Of course, it didn't hurt having Cecily Strong return and guest star Tom Hanks offering us more insight into David S Pumpkins But that was then &[...]

If you had a chance to check out my review of this weekend's edition of NBC & Lorne Michaels' Saturday Night Live, then you know we weren't exactly host & musical guest Jack Harlow's biggest fan That said, we still gave the episode high marks because Cecily Strong, guest star Tom Hanks (as David S[...]

If nothing else, Jack Harlow can take comfort in the fact that Miles Teller still holds the belt for hosting the weakest episode of NBC & Lorne Michaels' Saturday Night Live so far (with Brendan Gleeson getting things back on track and Megan Thee Stallion still setting the Season 48 bar) Look, it's not like[...]

With actor/comedian Amy Schumer (Inside Amy Schumer) & musical guest Steve Lacy waiting in the wings for November 5th, this weekend finds Jack Harlow following in Megan Thee Stallion's shows by both hosting and performing on tonight's edition of NBC & Lorne Michaels' Saturday Night Live So with that in mind, we're taking you back to[...]

So with that said, we have Harlow's official intro video from Lorne Michaels & NBC's Saturday Night Live to pass along to get the week started off on the right note From here, expect a midweek filmed sketch, a read-thru check-in, and some on-stage promos towards the end of the week But with Harlow being especially[...]

But with Megan Thee Stallion serving as both this weekend's host and musical artist, Lorne Michaels was offered a snapshot of everything that this season of NBC's Saturday Night Live could be Sketches were on point, "Weekend Update" was on fire, and (while it was a given that she would kill it) Megan's performances took[...]
