Pete Davidson/Ice Spice

Pete Davidson appears to have been resurrected from the dead and has about as much charisma as an Eggo waffle.

The cast, returning from the overly publicized strikes, showed signs of fatigue from their ordeal.

Is Lorne Michaels still in charge? Davidson's perfunctory opening statement referencing the current wars had a credibility gap that you could drive a truck through.

Always fast-forward through those recurring writer's room sketches. They are predictably and consistently just a boring filler segment.

This season "premiere" sucked and blew simultaneously in violation of all the known laws of physics.
