What to Know

Critics Consensus

Unfocused and devoid of chemistry, SNL's second installment strands the usually charming Awkwafina in a sea of disappointing sketches.

Aja Romano Vox While pointed, none of the jokes were especially sharp, and they set the tone for what ultimately turned out to be a lackluster episode of SNL. Oct 8, 2018 Full Review Sophie Gilbert The Atlantic The writing in [the cold open] was obstinately bland, just as the rest of the show largely wasted the talents of its host, Awkwafina, only the second Asian American woman to fulfill that role. Oct 8, 2018 Full Review Ryan McGee Rolling Stone Awkwafina noted how inspired she was by Lucy Liu hosting Saturday Night Live nearly two decades ago. It was a heartfelt moment, one undercut by a lackluster episode that no host could have salvaged. Oct 8, 2018 Full Review Garrett Martin Paste Magazine Mediocre SNL is better than the offensively bad show we've seen too much of over the last few seasons, but it doesn't make it any easier to get excited about it again. Rated: 5.0/10 May 7, 2019 Full Review Wes Rendar Thrillist The jokes weren't exactly the most hard-hitting stuff, but there's a clever twist ending that's worth sticking around for. Oct 10, 2018 Full Review Dustin Rowles Pajiba It's a bad show when even Debette Goldry is terrible. Oct 8, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
