mu thoughts:

Cold Open: I'm not a big fan of the political sketches but I do understand their presence, and this one had some funny lines especially at the expense of Time Warner.

Monologue: I like Martin Freeman, he was awesome in Sherlock and Fargo and he did a passable job here, just a bit of dry British wit.

Sump’n Claus: I love Keenan, he makes me giggle - but this went on too long.

Wedding: this was a great sketch, especially Leslie Jones and Kate MacKinnon.

The Office - Middle Earth: weird sketch, I didn't really get it, probably for the same reason I didn't really enjoy the Office.

Right Side Of The Bed: this was weird but I liked Taran Killiam and Cecily Strong in it.

Christmas Mass Spectacular: a little long and predictable.

Weekend Update: Sasheer Zamata was good, Michael Che had a good night, I don't know why they keep doing Vanessa Bayer's Barmitzvah kid - its the same joke over and over again - let her do a new character/bit or at least do something different with the character. (I think they should have retired the character when Seth left).

Heinz Assembly Line: goofy, somewhat funny.

Pine River Lodge: Keenan was funny, the rest of the sketch was short and weird.

Waterbed Warehouse: Aidy Bryant is always funny, but her characters are a little predictable.

overall not a bad show.

IMO this was the only skit that made me laugh, nowaday I just leave on SNL as background noise.
