Go Back
Season 8 is a continuation of the Ebersol era and honestly, it's kinda mediocre.
Compared to the last season, it didn't really live up to the last one, but some highlights make up with a better overall score than the last season.
Bro, every time this dude makes a phone call with someone, it just gets freakier and- HOLY SHIT DON PARDO IS BACK!!
But yeah, this season has a few changes. First off, they brought the "LIVE FROM NEW YORK!" quote back. It felt nice to hear it again, I kid you not.
Another change was SNL Newsbreak being changed to Saturday Night News, along with a new anchor, Brad Hall. He's not that bad, very snappy delivery. Julia-Louis Dreyfus was also a cast member, she's not that bad either, but the acting was alright. I don't know about the other new cast members, I forgot. Overall, the episode was really good, loved every sketch.
Fun Fact:
This is the first time Queen has ever performed on American television.
Favorite Sketches:
Mr. T as Mister Robinson's neighbor is so random, I don't even know if I should laugh at it.
Bro, this season is going off to a great start. Loved almost every sketch.
It's crazy hearing the Palestine situation still being a problem back in the 80s.
Favorite Sketches:
Y'know how this guy reminds me of? That homeless guy from It's Always Sunny, but like, before he was homeless.
Favorite Sketches:
Nothing much happened... I liked the Men at Work performance.
Favorite Sketches:
Oh hey, Michael Palin... wait a minute, I HATE MICHAEL PALIN!
Not gonna lie, I forgot this was a halloween episode until 20 minutes in.
The Love Brothers are, so far, one of my favorite fictional duo's in Season 8.
Favorite Sketches:
Host really thinks he's the bad boy of Hollywoo- Wait, he was Little Mickey from the Little Rascals?
That Tyrone Goes Reggae sketch made me fall asleep... twice.
Favorite Sketches:
Bro nevermind, SHE'S FUCKING YOUNG! LIKE, SHE'S LITERALLY 7 YEARS OLD!!!
Why did they have to Ban Andy Kaufman bro, he literally said he was gonna quit wrestling.
Favorite Sketches:
"Parents, do you ever want to have the kind of kid my mother did? Of course not. Now you can give your family something mine never had: an only child."
This episode is funny, probably one of my favorite duo hosts so far.
Favorite Sketches:
"LIVE FROM NEW YORK, IT'S THE EDDIE MURPHY SHOW!"
I can tell a lot of the cast members got mad after that.
Favorite Sketches:
Oh shit, I haven't seen her since Season 2.
This episode wasn't bad, it just has that one good sketch that made me laugh out loud.
Favorite Sketches:
"Great, Mialansky jokes. I'm here with the mob and I'm the only Jew in the room."
Whiners coming back pissed me off a little bit. Actually this whole episode pisses me off, there's too many sketches.
Favorite Sketches:
Oh my god these Whiners are still alive.
This episode took so long to watch, I started this in February 2025 and I finished in July because I was so busy.
Favorite Sketches:
Must be out of his damn mind to leave his ass mooning off-screen and GATEKEEPING TALENT!
>: (
Favorite Sketches:
Cool to see some sibling rivalry in the first 10 minutes.
Favorite Sketches:
This episode isn't really much, but I did love how Gary Kroeger's performance throughout the show so far. The Buckwheat sketches probably the only fun event throughout the whole episode.
Favorite Sketches:
Yeah he definitely killed Buckwheat. That cold open was one of the few instances where constant repetition of jokes actually make the sketch funnier.
Wait, this episode is very on the edge with their sketches, love a good energic and chaotic host. This episode also put me on with Duran Duran, thank you SNL.
Favorite Sketches:
Holy shit, this woman is annoying.
Favorite Sketches:
Wait, she married Dick??
That sit on it sketch was a writer's poorly disguised fetish.
Favorite Sketches:
He didn't even need a good monologue to get me hooked, I love you Stevie. I honestly think this should've been a season finale kind of episode.
Favorite Sketches:
The Mayor?? You know he's been building up these comments in the monologue for years.
