Ariana DeBose/Bleachers

Okay, so, I am so confused with what is going on this season on "Saturday Night Live". There have been a couple bad episodes and a couple of good episodes, but for the most part, Lorne Michaels and the gang keep pumping out the most mediocre stuff you can think of. They're pumping out so much mediocrity that it seems like that's become their new goal. This episode was far from great. You could tell Ariana DeBose was having a good time, but this episode wasn't very well executed. This may be an unpopular opinion, but I hated both performances by Bleachers. To me, they both sounded like you gave your kid your phone, they go on Garage Band, and then they just go to town. Overall, this was a very mediocre episode. Do better please!

Every sketch was hysterical. This entire season has been fantastic, excluding Kim. What do you want from this show? Ariana Debose did a great job, Bleachers wasn't that bad, and weekend update hit as always. What do you want???

The style of humor on SNL has evolved with the times, but I have trouble finding much to laugh at with new episodes.

They finally cast a great and funny Joe Biden with James Johnson, who really nails his mannerisms. Unlike the over-the-top physical comedy with Jim Carrey, Johnson does an amazing Biden. Unfortunately, the cold open in this episode revolves around a Spiderman joke that is beat like a dead horse. Over and over. After the first couple of minutes, the punchline is gone and I cringed watching anymore. I actually had to turn it off and fast forward. It was that bad. It's a shame when you have an actor with SO MUCH talent and it's wasted with 7 minutes of the same joke over and over again.

Weekend Update had a few good jokes. Jost and Che have awesome chemistry together.

Beyond that, nothing was very memorable with this episode. I keep tuning into SNL, hoping for something new and fresh, but the new humor style is very off-putting. They also seem to struggle to get bigger names to guest. It's nice to give an up and comer some air time, but still.

It's always great when Saturday Night Live helps a young host increase their following. After tonight's episode, I imagine a lot more people will consider themselves fans of Ariana Debose. As a Broadway actress, hosting SNL comes natural to her. Plus, the writers of this episode came prepared with great skits for her. There were a lot of great skits in this episode, such as the Sacramento Kings replacement players and Pete Davidson selling prom dresses. Most notably, the Weekend Update of this episode was one of the season's best. However, following Weekend Update, the quality of the skits dipped and the remaining ones were only mediocre. A strong episode with an okay finish. 7/10.

This season has been terrible so let's get someone to host whom most people don't know or don't care about. Maybe it's just time to hang it up or at least get a decent host and musical group.
