Critics Consensus

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

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

It's a bad show when even Debette Goldry is terrible.
