I am wondering why Tom and Greg are the ones being singled out for prison sentences. When you look at the totality of the crimes committed, their role was relatively minor—simply destruction of evidence.

Are they really all that competent, though? How many situations have we seen them win through sheer luck, or by the skin of their teeth, or because they happened to make the “right” call for stupid, petty reasons?
But, to be honest, the funniest thing in the whole sketch was watching judge Pete Davidson just go to town on his piece of real cake, happily stuffing his face and being a giggle-puss while trying not to do a spit take.
I would truly like to know what SNL needs to do to get an A from the author of these reviews. This was the funniest episode so far this season by far. I laughed pretty much from start to finish, basically laughing through tears during Dog Head Man and just about everything else. Isn’t the whole point of the show to…
Walking in Staten had some of the most egregious autotune I’ve heard on TV in quite a while. If Pete Davidson can’t sing, maybe they should have gone with a different idea or had someone else sing it.
SNL used to be much more reliant on recurring sketches than they are now, so waiting 3 and a half years for a second installment doesn’t bother me too much. It helps that I thought this was better than the first, which drags at the start. But if I thought this was a new concept and then learned about the first I would…
The whole season gets a passing grade for the "New titties" joke.
He basically wants them to be John Oliver, as though what he’s doing fundamentally changes a goddamn thing.
Saw someone on Twitter point out that they’ve already done the Dog Head Guy sketch before, which makes it a recurring sketch, but also kind of ruins it for me because instead of being just an enjoyable absurd premise, it’s now an absurd premise that they returned to for easy laughs.
I really don’t understand where people ever got the idea that SNL has or ever had an “outlaw rebel comedy image.” Maybe in the very early years when everyone was like 20 years old and coked up all the time?
Best Joke of the night was Che’s “new titties” joke about the Queen, but it didn’t even get a mention here, presumably because it couldn’t lead to another tedious political rant.
Surprised to see so many people putting this in the meh or worse category. I thought it was the best of the season. There were two great sketches (“Dog Head Man” and “Republican or Not”) and one very good one (“First Asian”). There were weak spots (the cold open, “Karaoke Round Up”, “911"), but no real stinkers. And…
I’m worried that the sarcasm didn’t come across.
did you finish the episode? he’s obviously a piece of shit and the show knows we don’t need to be handheld to know he took advantage of a student.
I found the characters in Girls unlikeable, and since the purpose of girls is to be liked by me, that was clearly a mistake.
It’s the worst part of the show for sure, but it’s also not endless, so at least there’s that.
I don’t know if it’s name recognition even. Never Have I Ever has also some absolutely insane casting choices when it comes to age that really undermine the dynamics and it doesn’t even add to the age there.
They’re doing something like this with South Side and I have no idea why. Hacks and The Other Two both came out on normal weekly schedules. Maybe they have some data or whatever suggesting that people want more than one episode a week but they don’t want to use up all the buzz by dropping everything at once?
Every show with women is Girls and bad, to me.
It should be mentioned that the release schedule for this show is ridiculous: http://www.thefutoncritic.com/showatch/sex-lives-of-college-girls/listings
