What is there to say? Justin Timberlake is a worthless bore. Why do they keep asking him back? JKJKJKJKJJKJLOLOLOL HE’S A BORN ENTERTAINER AND AN AMERICAN TREASURE! Booking Justin Timberlake to host SNL is like booking your favorite sandwich for lunch — you know you’re going to have a pretty great lunch, even if it’s not the best time you’ve ever eaten the sandwich. This wasn’t the best time we’ve ever eaten the sandwich, and the first half of the sandwich was much more satisfying than the second, but it was still a great lunch in a sea of leftovers and free cardboard pizza in the break room so HOW COULD WE EVEN BEGIN TO COMPLAIN? Justin Timberlake entered the five-timers club and had a bunch of perfect old lovelies there to greet him — Paul Simon, Steve Martin, Alec Baldwin, Tom Hanks, Dan Aykroyd, Chevy Chase, Martin Short, and Candice Bergen. Martin Short is perfect. It was a very good opening monologue, based on this very good opening monologue (with an appearance from Conan O’Brien), let’s watch it:
The opening monologue was followed by “It’s A Date,” with an appearance from both the Andy Samberg&Justin Timberlake duo and THE FESTRUNK BROTHERS! R U KIDDING ME? It was a very good sketch, even aside from the exciting nostalgia.
Unfortunately neither the cold open nor the Veganville sketch are available online due to their popular song use, but I would like to say that both were big treats. Veganville ran on a bit, which I thought I enjoyed at first, but then it ran on a bit longer and THEN it ended with a Harlem Shake, which I hated, but otherwise it was great! To be honest that doesn’t leave us with very many more sketches, and I did not enjoy the Caligula sketch, though you are free to watch it and decide for yourself. (Also Stefon was Stefon.) The “She’s Got A Dick” trailer didn’t really do it for me. Hahah. I know this is just a list of complaints, but it really was an enjoyable show overall! BUT the joke here was dated and never moved past itself. Nasim and Justin did get to make out, though. So.
Maine Justice was just as stupid and funny as it was last time. The use of Andy Samberg as the straight man was odd, but appreciated.
“Moet & Chandon” was great. “Monica and Chandler”? R U KIDDING ME FOR THE SECOND TIME, THIS SHOW?! A+. Very good. Very funny. Great job, ladies! Though I don’t understand if you guys still not having the same dress is part of the joke or something that I’m just not supposed to notice!
Finally, Justin Timberlake performed two songs and I am not a huge fan of either of them but the “Suit & Tie” performance was on its suit and tie shit big time, AND I LOVED IT! One of the best SNL performances of the season, obv. Good job, Justin! You’re good at this!

I went here,……….. http://qr.net/kdwK
The form of Dan Akroyd’s destructor turned out to be plaid pants. Yikes!
Did anyone else think Stefon was extra funny? I feel like the schitck’s been getting old, but I LOL’d hard.
I thought it was perfect this week. Like the old days. A shake for breakfast! A shake for lunch! A sensible dinner! ‘Your Mother And I Are Separating’ was the best club in a while. DONALD DUCK’S VIETNAM NIGHTMARE.
Augh, Bill Hader. What a perfect man.
I thought this whole episode was great…I laughed so much the whole time! Also I don’t really think I like most of JT’s music, but I found the musical performances very good. Also he has a unique ability to do the same dance moves I do but actually make them look good/on purpose.
Dude’s got some moves. More like Justin Limberlake, amirite?
Is there anybody who does not love Justin Timberlake? Lord knows I’ve tried to hate him, but it’s just impossible!
I try to not like him too but fail.
I was a big N Sync fan back in the day but never found him to be all that attractive. Boy has that changed, JT is all sorts of handsome now.
He got rid of the jewfro, which definitely helps.
and stopped the bleach blonde. 2/2 on good decisions.
I’ve found him charming since the first time he hosted SNL, unlike you — who is still on my list.
He’s perfectly beige
To host SNL 5-plus times, you can’t be a minority or a woman who has been popular within the last 20 years.
Drew Barrymore though.
That’s not true. Paul Simon and Martin Short were both there, and Elves are classified as minorities.
Are Jews counted as minorities?
Are you calling me elfist????????????????????????????
I’m just saying, you probably have ZERO pictures of elves in your wallet.
I think if they wanted, Tina Fey/Amy Poehler could fast scale those heights.
Maine Justice, you have stolen my heart.
Also, the Nuvabling bit had me in pieces. 70% effective…and yeah, it hurts!
OFF TOPIC: Someone just posted this on Facebook:
“If you are a single woman with no promises of having a man soon. Get you some business. Lonely woman always try to increase there click”
I think it’s offensive, but I can’t understand it enough to argue. Anybody have any guesses what this means?
It means they got hacked.
No, this guy is just really dumb. He tried to explain to me once why it’s racist for black women to date white men, but not for black men to date white women. I didn’t understand that one, either.
Wow. He is dumb. Because that statement in itself is racist.
I don’t know if it’s racist, sexist, all of the above, or none of the above. His levels of idiocy are genuinely confounding.
Are you facebook friends with Butters Stotch? Was he just trying to get you to make some damn money?
I was getting tired of Stefon, but then Hader pulled out “You’re Mother and I Are Separating” and I about Hugh Jackman’d myself.
Was I the only one who thought it was weird that JT was playing the exact same role in two recurring sketches so soon after Jamie Foxx played them? Not that it was offensive or throwing shade at Jamie Foxx or anything, just odd…
The funniest part of the show was that the second half was basically a carbon copy of Jamie Foxx’s episode, which was the funniest second-half show of the year. Kudos. You had Maine Justice, a fake-movie-trailer, and the porn girls (Swarkioske crystals!).
Now who’s the horse?
I also didn’t like Sober Caligula very much, with the exception of the sexy horse-man dance…which made the whole sketch’s existence okay in my book!
References to the original five timers sketch aside (Hanks), for a fleeting moment I was hoping this version was just a closet with Mike O’Brien.
Apparently there’s always someone named O’Brien working the coat check at the five-timer’s club. Didn’t they do a similar one with Alec Baldwin as well? Maybe that was 10 timers or something.
Did anyone else get a sudden overwhelming feeling of exhaustion when the Sober Caligula sketch revealed its premise?
Same here. I was like “ah, so this is not going to be funny” and then it wasn’t!
I’m nearly positive Dan Aykroyd would not have agreed to be there if he wasn’t allowed to put his Crystal Skull vodka behind him on the bar.
I was just shocked Akoroyd didn’t have a “Please, please, please, please someone, anyone, help me make Ghostbusters 3 why don’t you like me anymore I’m still funny!!!” shirt on.
A bartender at the House of Blues in Hollywood says he comes through sometimes just to check the placement of his vodka, so I’m 100% sure he made SNL agree to that.
So happy Stefon was back. I’ve loved all of his sketches in the past, but this one was especially great! “This club has everything- a shake for breakfast, a shake for lunch, a sensible dinner.” I liked everything else a lot too except for the romantic comedy trailer and Sober Caligula. I really think Tom Hanks should host soon! Maybe Chet Haze could be the musical guest!
First time I actually WATCHED an entire SNL since I got a DVR. ‘Nuff said.
Guys. Nuva Bling.
I do not get what the joke is supposed to be with the “veganville guy” or whatever. How is that a recurring gag? He just says foods in the place of pop song lyrics?
And why did he sing his answers on that dating show? Why didn’t he just talk or whatever? And why do they use that guy Stefan as a tour guide? His recommendations don’t seem that helpful or whatever. And how did Elton John lose so much weight? Has he been on a diet or has he been sick? And why would women want to use a birth control device that was only 70% effective when there are better options?
Very funny, but seriously the veganville guy sketch doesn’t have anything resembling a joke. I don’t get how it has attained the status of “popular recurring sketch”
omg the Moet & Chandon commercial. What a winner that is. The Crystals one was great too, but yes, many lols for that. Well done kids.
I love how dark it got at the end. “I woke up covered in blood,” and “I sprained my wrist jerking off a horse.”
Kelly!!!!! This Was such a delight to read.
))))) LUVVED IT. I now must actually watch the episode, (thank U DVR!!!!)
(You were on your suit and tie shit too!!)
“Now who’s the horse?”
