NFL on Fox - SNL

Not at all

[@No1ofConsequence]

Yeah he was pretty on point all night, almost like he had been doing for a season already. Sarah Sherman was pretty good too. But, Aristotle Athari just came off a bit stilted and uncomfortable in most of his appearances. Could turn around, plenty of season to go, but I think we can tell the who will be the one and done for this run.

[@ellengio]

He was great !!!!

Is this the man opposite owen. He did good. Nice stage presence. And timing.

Wasn’t initially sold on checking out Crazy House but the storyline with the monster puppet who may or may not be McKayla has me intrigued

Hey they never said McKayla was the puppet. Just that she's a monster.

[@canaisyoung3601]

Seems like it. James Austin Johnson did look like Darrell Hammond here and, like Darrell Hammond, JAJ does celebrity impressions and already killed it on his first episode with Joe Biden, Larry the Cable Guy, and Joe Buck.

[@therealcroman]

I thought they were going to make a joke about football games stopping every 5 seconds and going to commercial breaks while the actual game is a penalty or on time out or whatever nonsense makes an hour long game take 3 hours, but it's the other thing TV football loves to do. I approve... of the sketch. Screw watching football on TV.

[@benvoliothefirst]

It's actually WORSE in real life because nothing is happening during the commercial breaks! It was DESIGNED for TV. This is why there's an obesity epidemic.

[@therealcroman]

@@benvoliothefirst Actually, the breaks between plays are for the teams to decide plays, switch out players, etc. Football is a start and stop sport, not a continuous play sport. Also, the obesity epidemic has to do with atrocious quality of food, the cost of healthy vs unhealthy food, the time requirements of work, cooking, and modern life, and low physical activity, because who is going out for a walk for fun after cranking out a 10+ hour work/school day. Obesity isn't the result of football on tv. Lol.
