It’s difficult to put into words how much joy I get from this silly show and this special was a beautiful encapsulation of it.
Some of my favorite celebrities performing some all-time SNL sketches, many of which I have loved in the past, with some good music and funny and heartwarming interludes sprinkled in. If this was 12 hours long I would’ve watched the whole thing because there’s just so much gold but you can only do so much in 3.5…

Okay so…this was actually pretty good. I still prefer the original but it’s pretty hard to be better than a classic so not surpassing that isn’t a knock at all. This had the same bones as the 1974 version but it did make some changes, mainly that it was more mean-spirited but not necessarily in a bad way.
