This SNL cold open is almost as awkward as the real thing. https://youtu.be/CUpOMSJ1MdU?si=xgn6eXVZ3twwNNaR

The Trump impression isn’t strong enough & as always it looks like a Sixth Form review sketch they knocked up in a free period but I enjoyed Mike Myers a lot.

They always look like 6th form review sketches. And soooo loooonnggg.

I always feel with SNL they all think they’re funnier than they actually are.

Yes. I didn’t say it was ALL bad. Just weak and rambling.

I, for one, enjoyed the lot. Perhaps it's the lack of something similar here.

I get that they're reading off cards, but it always hampers performances. That said, figuring out Elon Musk is nothing more than Dr Evil assuming he's as naturally charismatic as Austin Powers is a funny take.

The elements are all there. It’s just blunt and way too long.

I forget the exact quote, but I'm sure it was Eric Idle that said something along the lines of 'What's the difference between life and an SNL sketch? Life ends.'
