Sitcom Reboot - SNL

Of course it was. He wrote this years ago when he was writing for SNL and Stefan...But they didn't let him do it then. Now that he's comedy royalty, pretty much what he says goes. That's why I can't wait for this Saturday!

Cecily's expressions as the skit got crazier and crazier were excellent. Her horrified look sold the skit completely.

[@patrickd8654]

She is really good at playing the sane person trying to figure out how exactly to respond to crazy.

[@unrealnews]

You’re right, she did do a great job. I couldn’t help but notice how little this script gave her to do. Being the “straight man” in a sketch is more than just a series of reactions. The portion given to Mulaney are well written and well performed,and I think that an even better script would have involved a more well rounded representation of the straight man’s perspective.

[@jameslarimer9211]

@@zodiackitten6110 Yeah it really is sort of a cautionary tale regarding jumping the shark. When they introduced Raquel Welch as the divorced neighbor/Femme Fatale and every new episode was another switcheroo, you could smell the desperation. Gotta say, though, in the season 3 premier when the mailman switcherood with Vinnie the cop was possibly the only truly good episode of the series. C. Thomas Howell's performance really brought it all together.

[@ChestersonJack]

@@jameslarimer9211 Oh god, the mailman! Honestly my favorite character, playing off the old “lonely wives cheating on their workings husbands with the milkman” archetype but with using the mailman in a will-they, won’t-they with the mom not because her husband works, but because he keeps refusing to have sex! It was a brilliant twist on the trope. But yeah I gotta agree, him switching with the cop was the best episode. Like, we knew mailman Jimmy slept around, but discovering through Vinnie’s eyes that he ran a prostitution ring? And Vinnie bumbling his way through trying to take legal action against it, WHILE the mailman actively sabotages him in his own body AND trying not to ruin the poor women’s lives? Extremely progressive for the time, but somehow they made a hilarious comedy of errors out of it! It perfectly set the tone for the rest of the season, somehow made the single episode feel like a feature film, and the way it came full circle when (spoilers for those who haven’t seen season 3 of Switcheroo) the ring finally got exposed when the son used it to try to explore his puberty-changed feelings by having sex with someone other than his mother! And the neighbor clearing his charges so he’d owe her something… Brilliant stuff, man, brilliant stuff… They made great use of Vinnie’s fear of dogs in that episode, too!

[@uosdwiSrdewoH]

Not really. John's a lot like Nate Bargatze. Their episodes are easily some of the best but it's because they know how to write for their particular style of comedy. They both have incredible comic timing but neither of them really stretch themselves as performers when they host. They just do what they do really well. John has said himself Lorne was right not to put him in the cast. He thought maybe he could have done Weekend Update but that never came about while he was still on the show due to his friendship with Seth and not wanting to take that role from him by pushing for it.

If you didn't notice, 2:27 "little Andy Cunanan left the business" is a reference to Andrew Cunanan, who went on a killing spree in 1997 that included Gianni Versace. And 3:29 "Studio 1A on 100 Switcheroo Avenue, Jonestown, Guyana" is a reference to Reverend Jim Jones' Jonestown mass suicide in Guyana in 1978. Studio 1A is sort of famous for being where the Today show is produced at 30 Rock (SNL shoots in 8H).
