Members Gray Bunny Posted October 31, 2022 Members Share Posted October 31, 2022 Cecily's return made all the difference in this past weekend's show. She just makes me laugh. Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted November 13, 2022 Members Share Posted November 13, 2022 (edited) The real tragedy about Dave Chappelle is when he tries, he can still be very funny and very insightful, including about political issues (policing, etc). I saw some of his monologue and a fair amount made me laugh. The problem is that like many top comics before him, he's gotten so caught up in lashing out at the changing times and being a contrarian that he lost sight of his own place in the larger matrix. The contrarian pushback too many comics fall into has become his major identity. I don't believe the Dave of 20 years ago would be cheering becoming a (somewhat volatile) hero to the alt right or bigots. That's my only commentary on tonight!

Members j swift Posted December 6, 2022 Members Share Posted December 6, 2022 (edited) It was odd to me that it seemed like a skit that would have been written in 1987 about the unfortunate choice of stunt people for Crystal and Alexis on Dynasty, rather than commenting on anything about contemporary media. It also replayed much of the humor from the RuPaul/Bowan Yang scene from last season. And, as is the case for most SNL sketches, they couldn't figure out an ending.

Members Faulkner Posted December 18, 2022 Members Share Posted December 18, 2022 Cecily Strong’s last episode is tonight. She is one of the most unsung yet talented stars of this show in recent memory. She really could do it all: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted December 18, 2022 Members Share Posted December 18, 2022 Several of the 'lost generation' cast members in that were very prominent and popular... Cecily stayed a few years too long (although I would guess she wanted to leave in May and Lorne pushed her to stay longer), but she's an absolute gem who could have been a star in just about any period of the show. I hope she has a decent sendoff. I'm surprised it was released this way but that may have been her choice. She's the first woman in 20 years who isn't leaving midseason because of pregnancy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Faulkner Posted December 18, 2022 Members Share Posted December 18, 2022 Made me a little misty. Usually when SNL does those “emotional” tributes, they’re a little cringe, but this was sweet. Bowen Yang looked really devastated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gray Bunny Posted December 19, 2022 Members Share Posted December 19, 2022 It was a sweet ending. I loved that powerhouse trio of Kate, Aidy, and Cecily and was so glad when she returned a month into this current season because the new cast was struggling. Cecily is definitely a dynamic performer that helped uplift any skit she was in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Noel Posted December 23, 2022 Members Share Posted December 23, 2022 Honestly, I had forgotten that she was leaving the show, lol! I was busy doing computer stuff and was watching the whole show in its entirety laughing of course, but it didn't phase me when Cecily's truck woman character announced that she was going to prison during Weekend Update. Finally, it was the Blue Christmas skit that made me realize Cecily was leaving. What a sweet goodbye tribute and very fitting for the holiday season.
