SNL took heavy losses prior to this year (Kate McKinnon, Aidy Bryant, Pete Davidson, Kyle Mooney, Chris Redd, Melissa Villasenor) but they still have Keenan Thompson, Jost and Che on Weekend Update, interesting musical guests (I was shocked to see Willow Smith - daughter of Will and Jada, go full Grace Jones on last night's episode and actually sound pretty good/interesting) and the 'Please Don't Destroy' digital short guys. Speaking of which, Penn State gets a few mentions as the college of choice in the digital short below featuring host Brendan Gleeson. If you haven't seen their 'Three Sad Virgins' song with Pete Davidson and Taylor Swift, it's worth watching as well (also linked).

I got the distinct impression that Sean Clifford may have been an inspiration for the PSU mention sketch.

Episode was lousy overall. Did find Willow interesting, though.

Few good skits - I like the opening, Weekend Update, and the musical performance. Gleason has such a strong accent it made some sketches touch to watch. I liked kind of a throw away sketch towards the end with the girl who had the googly eyes implanted.
