Paul Mescal Monologue - SNL

[@senoj.rednaxela]

He is beaming here! So nice to see genuine joy from these actors

[@StuartOMahony-f6m]

Fair play well done he was brilliant

[@StudioDaVeed]

He is open about seeing a therapist, which he says is "to keep sane". ...eyeroll...

[@heatherhamann]

REALLY cute...

He didn't say anything remotely funny or original, sad that people pretend this was funny

[@ChrisHops22]

Awesome monologue! You can see that he's crazy excited to be there and that makes me very happy for him!

[@Cali-hiking-guy]

I’m sure he’s happy you paid his electric bill too by watching Gladiaror 2. He’s happy he’s rich and doesn’t have to be happy for someone who no one knows. That in itself makes me unhappy.

… I don’t like to be a hater, but they were off for weeks and came back with a WEAK show… I hope they are saving the good skits for the 50th… not the hosts fault, but also kinda the hosts fault

Oh, that Chicken Shop Date was so effortlessly funny, this on the other hand..😅

The crying montage 😂 absolutely hilarious. No one can cry like Paul Mescal.

Viola Davis, perhaps?!

thankyou to whoever helped him pick out the shirt and also marcello's legs 😍🔥

Did you see the HR sketch when Shane Gillis hosted? If not, watch til the very end, then thank me. 😉

[@kaholt67]

Has anyone else ever been this excited whilst doing their monologue? We need him in a comedy

[@jo-eo9ld]

Joan Rivers’ monologue -she was just tickled to death be there and delivered some great jokes. I just adore Paul as well

[@83dude]

Being excited is good, but he's not even remotely funny, nothing he said was original or interesting " durr Durr Brits"

[@jo-eo9ld]

@@83dude Well, Sherlock, perhaps the writers of the show are to blame then, as Paul had nothing to do with the jokes he was given. I think he delivered them well. It wasn't the most hilarious SNL show, but I still found it funny and thought Paul did a good job

[@ktann3476]

he’s making me proud to be Irish and I’m not even Irish

[@iwantmykidssusan4941]

I know right? It makes me want to get in touch with my roots. (I’m Czechoslovakian)

[@seanohare5488]

Hilarious

[@ichigoly]

I literally laughed out loud 😂😂😂😂

I’m Irish, he’s a legend.

Connel made it to NY 🥹

[@agv3095]

Connel finally caught a break

Connel got rid of his manipulative toxic girlfriend and got a life he deserves

[@allanhee]

I'm happy for him. Marianne is doing well too, maybe she'll make it one day too.

[@pinkparis]

Shut up. Did you watch the show? Connell was the reason for their problems every time.

[@pinkparis]

Connell was the reason for their relationship problems actually.

[@aap2310]

He looks so GORGEOUS.

Probably because he IS.

Flying the flag for Ireland ☘ Paul Mescal from Maynooth in Co.Kildare - Proud to see you hosting SNL, and he is right its insane ... see you in Bradys!

My family’s roots are Irish and this young man looks so much like my father from the nose up.

[@triciag4955]

More likely The Roost

[@taylormullen2815]

This man could say the most unfunny stuff, and I'd still crack up. What a beautiful, majestic person. Not going to lie, this was a good monologue. I love that Paul can poke fun at himself!

[@maaribb3531]

He's so happy to be there❤❤🎉

[@SepticPeg]

It's mad to think a lad from Maynooth just presented SNL

[@blueberryyogini]

Thank you Maynooth for this great guy!!! He doesn't take himself too seriously, which is refreshing and very rare in Hollywood these days. ❤🎉

[@RockyRoader]

And he's even wearing his Kildare shorts in that photo!

Literally was just gonna say this 😂

Have known a few Irish guys and can attest that many are charming + handsome. Dangerous, indeed. 👀

He’s so wholesome 🥹

[@seanohare5488]

[@nio6381]

When I heard that this guy was hosting I was like "Who is that?" now I am like "Nevermind, he's Irish and he's cool."

He's also a great actor. Check his work in "Aftersun" and "All of Us Strangers" out.

[@seanohare5488]

Cool

Not to be shallow but Paul and Marcello in the same frame, it's a good omen.

Some decent and fun fans and folks in comments, yet also quite a lot of oddly fixated haters nit picking over irrelevent and subjective random shite. [Not as if that's about him. Always some doing that no matter who hosts.] He he delivered the monolgue well regardless of not being known for comedic roles. Plus his emthusiasm and authentic happiness being there is delightful. And whomever crtitqued his clothes, bet ya'll don't look anywhere near as good. He is simply stylish and looks at ease, and infectiously relaxed. Loved the side joke about his shorts and *damn* anyone with legs like that should be sportin' them any time they feel like it.
