I cant get over how different dakota looks with each wigs.

It is more that her teeth were modified. No more gap.

Dakota was really giving some Kristen Wiig energy in this

So bad, huh?

[@Corndogg316]

Blasphemy. Wigg is awesome. This host and sketch are booty

[@donalvarez4006]

The fact that they're discussing "It Ends With Us" is what really got me

[@da3855]

And that they don’t really know what it’s about. Ego saying “I personally related to how she finally found love” doesn’t really describe what happened to the protagonist lol

[@roseJ96]

90% of her books are the same and I didn't see the title so I was trying to remember which it was. Thank you for dropping the title lol

[@xdlr22]

Literally one of the worst books I’ve ever laid eyes on. And then when I went to book club it was nothing but praise for this filth. When I finally found someone else who thought it was rubbish I could sigh a sigh of relief. Literally the worst “twist” ever. Anybody who liked the first ML from the start is clearly delusional and needs help.

[@dgray7537]

​@@Nonesovile96It depends on the genre that you like, some of the best books I've read have been written in the last 10 years.

[@darkspd31]

I have never seen an episode with so many bizarre awkward pauses in it

[@avatar3071]

It's like a High School talent show and they all just realized they're parents are the audience and aren't going to get any of the jokes.

[@rmstnr]

This sketch was worth totally the punchline that its actually a good idea, but it would have also been fine if it just ended there, bringing out the actually sharks was unnecessary, they didnt help the joke at all 😅

[@64chefhoward]

Not funny

[@jonh2853]

Right? It's like they got feedback to not rush in rehearsal and so... have put in... awkward pauses with coy smiles.

[@darkspd31]

@@jonh2853 another couple episodes like that, and this shit needs to get canceled

I love that story. Can you tell it again?

[@brothermister3873]

I love SNL and I love your product. And for that reason, I'm out. -Barbara

[@Dubyular]

Exactly

[@homer3189]

old meme but checks out

[@laduke8873]

Would’ve been a better line for her honestly.

[@lgmisfit10]

This deserved a better ending especially with those cameos

[@killboybands1]

It deserved a better beginning and middle as well.

[@randal_gibbons]

Agree. It fizzled out at the end.

[@Houdingplaces]

@@killboybands1 Yup, the first "laugh" wasn't until 1:36 into the video lol

[@floydmaseda]

Right? Molly walked in, and I was like OH WHAT WHO ELS... Oh, it's just Molly. Well that's anticlimactic.

[@thomasdavis8903]

I think Molly was going to make a ridiculous offer, but Barbara jumped her line.

Those cameos deserved a better sketch

It was okay

Everything so far today has been bad except PDD’s sketch

[@THLaunched]

Are you okay?

[@steveconn]

Wow, just written for a Shark Tank cast cameo. Lot of work put in this one. Appreciated.

[@NazriB]

Lies again? Bible In Arabic USD SGD

[@mrusi29]

Yeah that was terrible.

[@christinlittle4712]

I bet Renee Rapp was upset she wasn’t on later.

[@bunnyfernwood]

The awkward silences tho

[@kaykeybear3334]

This entire episode made me feel ALL of the second hand embarrassment that exists in the cosmos.

[@laurenbendik2006]

It’s not a good sign that I got bored and tuned out 2 mins in, had to rewind.

[@AmanCreatesArt]

Are you okay?

[@killboybands1]

It's a good sign that it was terrible.

[@nathancommissariat3518]

Lots of special guests this episode, Jimmy, mark, Barbara! Crazy!!

[@irubberyouglueonethousand5384]

cuz the guest and substitute writers needed the extra help

[@THLaunched]

Cuz she’s great!

[@Whodey-AJ]

Yeah, because it's a godawful episode. It needed all the support it could get.

[@shahartley]

This is probably the only time Barbara didn't say "And for that reason, I'm out."

[@ApolloPlanetary]

Easily one of the worst skits I’ve seen from this show. Wow, I’m honestly stunned.

[@rukeyser]

The only skit that worked was the JT Beegees throwback.

[@GGoAwayy]

Dakota's sense of comedic timing is insaaaaaanely off.

[@user-oi6gr8xw9h]

I know it's awesome 😂

[@avatar3071]

Is she just a moron?

[@mrusi29]

It’s not awesome

[@kathrynhinkle5351]

It’s as if she’s performing in a different skit than everyone else

[@rukeyser]

Plus it's a crummy skit.

[@rebekahbacon7700]

i have never seen a quieter episode in my life.

[@raradis]

I've never seen Dakota as a psycho but .. wow.

[@laalaa99stl]

It _is_ too many words. But you could trademark the acronym: DAMIIOKIOK BITWAIIOKIMJSTC

[@myownheroisonlyme5721]

I read that out loud. Now I have Google "how to treat hives that for some reason look like faces of creatures". Thanks.

[@laduke8873]

Another KZbin reply that honestly would’ve been a better line than what was in the actual sketch !✍️

[@matteusmaximus]

when they have non-actors come on for cameos they should tell them to ignore the applause and not smile at the audience. the big smiles of recognition kinda kill the energy. Those cameos would've been hilarious if they both walked out totally straight faced and made their offers.

[@hassanshariff]

Man her long pauses take you out of the joke.

[@mikehawk9281]

It's the long awkward silence from the audience, that was supposed to get a laugh, after every line she says. I had no clue who this woman was and this did not make her look good 😅

[@chad5893]

They really do, she was terrible

[@Gman1998]

It’s a pause for laughter but there’s is no laughter

[@hassanshariff]

@@Gman1998 OMG that worse 🫣

This was clunky af

[@mikehawk9281]

How did this one make the cut lol

[@Mercmerczenon]

exactly my thoughts

[@areyoufriendly]

Ikr. I’m guessing because of the arranged cameos.

[@Houdingplaces]

Because it's all about women

[@smokejc]

very weak episode overall

[@Sentientpotatoh]

How was any of this episode aired

[@chrisg220]

they can't celebrity cameo wash over every bad skit...

[@user-sp6le1gl2n]

Yes. Wise words. Hopefully someone at snl gets this...eventually.

[@anmnou]

spot on...no one except for better writers and a more talented cast can save this show at this point.

[@ralphburnette]

Oof… that’s one of the worst sketches I’ve seen on SNL.

[@nathan_p]

So ABC just bought a skit on SNL? Explains the stale writing and bad acting, as if they were all held hostage to comply. Please bring back actual comedy, not paid for advertising.

[@lyraserpentine894]

Dakota's mob wife aesthetic is on point. Was that intentional, I wonder.

[@johnnycincocero]

I was hoping Punkie's top would have fallen slightly open in this skit.

[@lewid019]

😂

[@Thessalin]

Would have made it actually funny maybe... oof.

[@avatar3071]

At least then it would have gotten one laugh.

[@lsofia1871]

Don’t ask if I’m okay. I’m okay. But if everyone starts asking if I’m okay, I might start crying.

Nope she wouldn’t have.

Whoever wrote this sketch needs to be fired. This was ROUGH!

[@omgnetwork5231]

the sketches were pretty mid... but Dakota did great! the Barry Gibb talk show was the most hilarious one...

[@johannahernandez1954]

I've always thought of Dakota as a terrible actress, but damn in this SNL episode she left no doubt.

[@wanjanjama]

These cameos from Barbara and Mark (the actual sharks of Shark Tank) just made this skit 1000x better

[@angelisa368]

Yes!!! Made the whole show not a total waste!!

[@calyx93]

Pity Dakota can't stop constantly looking towards the cue cards. Reminded me of RuPaul doing the same. Really hampers the feel, flow and humor.

:Eye Roll

[@allisoncomeaux3441]

Not "it ends with us" 😂😂😂

[@KrisHoppz]

This sketch is off. I think the guest put in too many long pauses everywhere.

what the actual heck was this

[@missblondiee22]

me cringing at how many copies of the book they had to buy for this sketch

[@roseJ96]

Me cringing at the mere Coho publicity for this lol

[@Aukejorrit]

This reminds me of a dutch inventors show. Two guys came on with "a lot right". A shirt that answered the question: _"are you all right?"_ honestly. No we are not *all* right, but we are *a lot* right.

[@Anonymous-ld2hi]

"De-Bank" is when the bank closes all your accounts for no reason.

[@mahathisubramaniam9137]

It’s the nobody asked but still kept telling everybody and this skit was too relatable

Okay. Is there something going on, maybe with Loren? What's with all of the cameos, lately?

good god dakota is so low energy in all of these sketches

[@Hai_Lello]

I don’t mean any disrespect but so far, aside from Please Don’t Destroy (perfection), it’s all misses tonight. Even Dakota’s timing and delivery in this were a little flat. Hoping Weekend Update and the rest of the sketches can save it.

[@chad5893]

100%

[@lightxgrenade]

You're not being disrespectful, you're just being honest. This was a pretty bad episode.

[@sgshumblecrumb6046]

The Cut for Time sketch was good. The Barry Gibb show is also an old classic.

[@quentinvogel3855]

I just told my wife the same thing waking up to see last night’s sketches. I only showed her the Please Don’t Destroy one since it was the only good one of this week :(

[@tangiechapman6219]

Please don’t destroy was so good I was laughing I only like the Murray skit that the only one that she did that was good everything else was terrible. I thought she would better than Michael B, Jordan, and the dude last week.

[@nicholasgarrick8855]

That sketch didnt justify such a big cameo.
