I wonder if this is just a *this week* thing or if the show is going to phase out the mid-week promo sketch. Wouldn’t be surprised if they did. I’m sure the effort put into those wasn’t worth the relatively meager gains these days

Here I am posing for my own Weekend Update joke on SNL in 1985. I am a farmer who has grown a small potato that looks like a big potato. And, according to Dennis Miller, I only want a hundred dollars for it.

The Ashley Padilla and Jane Wickline Show (featuring Veronika and Jeremy) continues to deliver but we can probably get rid of most of this other stuff. It’s just too distracting.

I just realized that since SNL UK is going on break until January 2027 after their last episode in October, we’re not going to get a Christmas episode out of them! That stinks! Somebody fix that!

Dan is absolutely right to call out the cinematography, special effects and art direction here. No matter what you think of Nothing But Trouble, you really can’t deny that it’s a total visual feast. It’s grotesquely gorgeous.
This is the true me, Judge Alvin from Nothing But Trouble. The film cost Warner Brothers $38 million and made 4. It effectively ended my directorial career, but was the best experience thanks to having Spielberg’s crew—Dean Cundey, Cinematographer and Michael Lantieri, Special Effects. As well as William Sandell, Art Director. We came in under budget but the studio opened us against Jodi Foster in Silence of the Lambs and Julia Roberts in Sleeping With the Enemy. We didn’t have a chance. But I’m proud of the picture as a perfectly serviceable comedy.
I can be and prefer to be addressed as Judge, by virtue of my serving as a sworn Canadian federal judge for 2 hours wherein I welcomed new immigrant families to Canada. So Judge Aykroyd will be fine. And also Doctor. Judge Doctor. Doctor. Doctor. Doctor. Doctor…

I’m glad we’ve finally got another black female on the show (still insane we went a full year without one) but we can’t lose one and add two. This cast needs to *slim down*, man. The bench doesn’t need to be 40 deep.

They should have Liberty Bibberty host SNL for one of those episodes where they try to rehab the host’s public image

I still want this show to disconnect from the quirks of the US show and *stop using generative ai, for gods sake* but otherwise, this was a comfortable, straight down the middle premiere. If this was shaking off the rust, we should be cooking soon enough.
It's Saturday. It's 11:30 and I'm watching Saturday Night Live again. Good times. Welcome back, SNL UK.
