The breakfast in bed sketch was the only one I really enjoyed and that’s probably biased cause my wife just had a baby.

Seriously, this is stupid. Schumer’s was a good, if typical, SNL. She just had to follow two of the best episodes of the season.

edit: And here, have a bit more of it

That sucks for her, but the episode was still not funny. I think I may have giggled at WU, which Schumer wasn't even in.

Haha what the gently caress?

Schumer's episode was good, I surprised myself that I thought Glover's was better.

They've done these before and they always get cut for time right? Someone really has a thing for Slavic music videos and doesn't get how it's an incredibly niche joke.

Yes but this time they had DJ strategy from the MYTHIC INSIGHT CREW.

It's a bit like when they did the sketch that was just the old people trying to say flakey crust. I hadn't seen the original video so I didn't really get the sketch and when I saw the original it was way funnier anyway. You shouldn't need to have watched some specific thing to get a joke in a sketch with a mass audience like this. Then again I'm old and grumpy so maybe that's what the kids like now.

Naah bro I’m old and grumpy too. But they’ve only done it a couple times that have made it to air I can recall, and they were. It’s Kate mackinnon being a funny old lady so I can’t complain too much.

It’s kinda crazy how this show can book Alec Baldwin, Ben Stiller, and Bobby DeNiro for a sketch and it not even touching the top 50% of the last month.
