A mostly-solid slate of sketches lively enough to wake you up after being lulled to slumber by the sonic wallpaper of musical guest Tame Impala.

Here's hoping this is the last we've seen of Mueller on SNL for a good while.

Except for Strong and a few scattered lines, "SNL" struggled to find that which was funny in that which was so desperately unfunny.

Part of the charm is seeing if the cast and writers can pull it off week after week... When they have a prepared and game host like [Sandra] Oh, it can create some truly entertaining TV. Provided you tune in at 11:35 and miss the cold open.

The first twenty minutes or so were so dire that you could actually hear the audience squirming.

There aren't some great sketches, but most of them were only mildly amusing, weird without any real payoff, or just plain disappointing.

Oh's enthusiasm and obvious happiness at hosting Saturday Night Live were simply irresistible objects, while, in between, her presence in a healthy number of sketches showed how game and excited she was to be there.

I need a cigarette after watching this.

Oh had no trouble at all indulging and amplifying her comic instincts.
April 01, 2019
It's a joy how deeply Strong embodies this character, conveying Pirro's hardened attitude with more than a touch of bloodlust.

It probably speaks to this episode's lack of imagination that the best and worst sketches both revolved around boardroom meetings.

This episode really is a great example of how Saturday Night Live leaning into weirdness these days is for the best.
