Keke Palmer was flawlessly funny in her SNL hosting debut, no matter her scene partners, but the Kenan-Keke team was truly outstanding. Read DennisPerkins5's review.
In just one of her impeccable scenes tonight, Keke Palmer approached fellow former child star Kenan Thompson for her planned, Emmy-baiting gritty reboot of. The pre-taped piece itself is funny enough—Kenan is roped into Palmer’s reboot under false pretenses, allowing Palmer’s co-lead to emote the hell out of things once the show’s traditional goofball antics allow her the spotlight.
The 1980’s soap opera parody Forcington’s Ridge paired Palmer up with Cecily Strong for a literal knock-down, drag-out recreation of all the era’s-style catfighting and scenery-chomping. And while it’s amusing to just watch two badass funny women spew lines such as, “Like you didn’t forget not to fellatiate my husband every day,” the real kicker comes in the effortful use of beefy stunt doubles, and the actors’ subsequent efforts to make the swaps look seamless.
Showing off the invaluable “game for anything” hosting trait, Palmer got into the stirrups, showed off her baby bump, and blew cigarette smoke out of her hoo-hah.
Kanye got taken for a ride, what with him praising Hitler and so forth, although Jost mainly used the ensuing outrage to sort of double down on the anti-Semitic nutjob’s “Jews control everything” nonsense. Jost and Che like to play the naughtiest boys in class, counting on their charismatic cheek to carry them through, as when Che made yet another of his signature “women, amirite?” jokes tonight.
