This week was a mixed bag IMO.
Opening sketch was a bit cringey, maybe don't make jokes about an ongoing armed conflict that is actively killing innocent civilians. I know SNL wants to be edgy, but did you "have" to do this one?
Weekend Update was strong, as usual (lately). No Pete Davidson this week too, which is always a plus. I did enjoy the weird Cecily Strong workplace appropriateness skit. Good to see more weird on the show.
I didn't "get" the point of the Aidy Bryant / Oscar Isaac skit. She finds him attractive, that was the punchline? Maybe I did get it.
More of the usual "meh" quality of mid-season SNL episodes.
