Cold Open: Iran War Address
President Trump talks about missile strikes in Iran
• After a one episode break, it’s back to Trump again.
• They’re still talking about that FIFA award thing? How long ago was that?
• I kinda liked the line about Forrest Gump being a “time-traveling r-word”.
• Now we’re resorting to lame meta jokes about how the Iran situation prevented SNL from doing a cold open about the State of the Union address. Trump also specifically mentions that Jeremy was going to be in it and that his airtime has been cut down as a result. It sure is funny when they mock their new cast members, isn’t it?
• Again with the Pete Hegseth impression???? Ugh, please go away!!!!
Monologue
Connor discusses his career and congratulates our Team USA winners.
• From what I understand, this guy is still a relatively new actor. He’s in that Heated Rivalry show which they pathetically tried to cross over with Harry Potter a few episodes ago.
• I like how the “family-appropriate” clip he shows is a two-second scene of his character saying “Okay”.
• Not caring for this running gag where he stares at the camera and makes dramatic statements.
• On the plus side, we get appearances from several members of our Olympic hockey team.
• The players’ lack of acting experience is rather obvious, but I find that really charming.
Sketch: Mr. Fronzi
Marcello has a funny voice and that’s pretty much it.
• Not a big fan of the opening, which just seems to be an excuse to pander to all the ladies in the audience.
• Wow, this is just awful so far. Marcello’s wacky Hispanic voice routine is getting on my last nerve.
• “Seriously, dude, you just said ‘penis’.” No, really??? Thanks for pointing that out!
• The whole “penis/peanuts” routine is so hacky. Did a twelve-year old write this?
• Connor’s impression of Marcello’s character is funnier than the actual thing.
• Now they try to make this “heartwarming” at the end and show us that the class actually does care about him!!! Barf!!!
