Adam gives 110% in every SNL skit. Get him his Five-Timers Club Card already!

[@andrew66862]

On his next visit that will be 100% appropriate.

[@Theomite]

Sometimes I think SNL is the only venue where he feels comfortable.

[@steveconn]

At least here he plays a character. Really not much of an actor.

[@ramirezproductions0826]

Man, when it comes to comedy, Adam definitely doesn't play around. He definitely OWNED this sketch. I gotta say, that man really knows how to make someone laugh no matter what role he's cast in. I really hope he comes back to host again next season.

[@missq5200]

Never realized how adaptable Adam Driver is. He goes from tearing up while lying to a jury to channeling Mr. Rogers on a shopping channel to being an offended landlord with an New Jersey accent, and plays them all to the fullest!

[@guildedpickle4755]

Adam is the GOAT of guests in SNL. Aways takes it above and beyond. This guy just makes magic on screen every single time he's on the show. Pure talent.

[@JasonHauser125]

Adam Driver doesn't seem to use cue cards much, he just dives into these roles as an actor, it's quite impressive

[@Theomite]

WHY in the fuck was this cut? It's outstanding! Even Yang can't steal the scene out from under Driver here. And I'd swear that Driver memorized his lines so he didn't need the cards, he moves through it so smoothly.

[@kengeorgejones6855]

It's a Christmas miracle to get a cut sketch on here again. Thank you so much. This was an enjoyable sketch - getting to see Adam do fun character work, and the buildup of Andrew being increasingly delirious over everyone in the audience reacting to him. The part with Andrew and Ego is great.

[@LC-le9ew]

This one was cut? I think it was my favorite.

[@bonnieb9238]

​@LC-le9ew same. Think the dinner skit should have been cut. It was a bit meh for his range of talent

[@JaguarRacingTeamX]

Ego has been coming in delivering the BEST deadpan response one liners lately. This one, " No, I'm his widow....", and last week's "You're the one who followed me home and begged me to write about you". I see her finding a style that I am loving and creating a niche like this could hopefully parley into something after SNL.

[@Jmcinally94]

I like how Adam felt like he performed around the static camera work that SNL is usually forced to use. Like when he walks towards and past the camera.

[@randommminator]

lol loved how they incorporated almost everyone in this skit, what a treat!

[@bryguy87]

I can’t believe he outed Richie like that… Beep Beep! watch out! This guys outing everybody!

[@user-yn7yo1co3k]

Before tonight, I never knew about the beep-beep man thing. Wow is there egg on my face. 🤪

[@PleaseDontEatAnimals]

Adam fits in so well with the cast--he's the main reason I watched tonight.

[@stickybearskinrug2046]

Sarah Sherman is hands down my favorite new-ish cast member. I love that she always goes all in on weird characters and I literally lol at her lines when she’s in a sketch 😂

[@yoyo_ma7677]

I like Sherman too but in this sketch it would have been better if she kept it together rather than almost breaking.

[@piloterodactyl]

@@yoyo_ma7677 It's the wild card energy she brings to each sketch. She really just seems to be on her own timing no matter what. It's fun.

[@AdityaBonnerjeeBEC]

Can we please take a moment to appreciate Andrew's comic timing and expressions. Not only in this sketch but the other ones too. He really makes me crack up with his follow ups and deliveries.

[@zoyadulzura7490]

[@mayanksinghbisht]

[@casuallydepressed]

Not only is Adam one of the best guests to have on the show, I feel like this is one of the best versions of the casts in a while!

[@manilkasheran2934]

This is such a great idea. Actor on talk shows always whine about them waiting tables and their crappy apartments when they were starting out. It's a clever idea to have them confronted by their old tenant about the remarks.

[@andrewjohnson588]

Seriously! I always wonder if people who knew them back then hear that and are like "aw come on it wasn't that bad"
