Organizing “Saturday Night Live” just after winning an Oscars may seem like a victory tour, but it is also a way for an artist to show an audience that they are much more than an emblematic role.
Unfortunately, the winner of the Oscars, Mikey Madison, was messed up with his best actress victory for “Anora”, did not have many opportunities to do so during his first guest by organizing “SNL”. Instead of looking into his talents, as he did A few weeks ago for Lady Gaga a few weeks agoThe episode placed Madison in a series of sketches where she mainly played a support role for the actors in reheated rehearsals of past sketches.
Instead of helping the host create new memorable characters, Madison played a variation of an actor class character Charli XCX did it in November With Marcello Hernández, a high school student at Cold Open, the comedy-writer's partner of A criminal who diessomeone Try to get out of the juryand an ob / gyn Who continues to run in Barry, a midwife (Bowen Yang). It is only towards the end of the show, in a spectacle sketch called: “So like … what are we are“That Madison was able to direct a sketch. It was not one of the best pieces of the night, but it at least showed Madison comedy chops that fans of the program FX of Pamela Adlon”Best things“Know it for years.
It was a shame and a missed opportunity that an Oscars winner was relegated to supporting pieces, which she played well, in the sketches mainly led by men (the exception being the sketch of the jury with Ego Nwodim as a judge). Even a Please don't destroy the video About Madison Enging to make a prestige television program on SpongeBob Squarepants, with Madison composed like Squidward, was a recycled idea of Whne Bad Bunny appeared as Shrek.
Hopefully she is invited and that the show intensifies with better equipment cooler for her.

The cold of the week presented a defense secretary by SMS, Pete Hegseth (Andrew Dismukes), without knowing it, committing without knowing it with a group of high school girls in a group cat, a Reference to signal chat scandal. While each participant read their texts aloud by typing, Hegseth threw a mixture of war plans, gifs and eggplant emojis. Vice-president JD Vance (Yang) quickly joined the Greenland cat, where he was doing “mysterious and important work”. “No one knows why I am here, especially me,” complains Vance. Secretary of State Marco Rubio (Hernández) tried to obtain information from girls in order to expel them through American immigration and the application of customs, but not before the editor of the Atlantic, Jeffrey Goldberg (Mikey Day).
For her short monologue, Mikey Madison said she was exhausted by her busy month and planned to sleep in April. She showed clips of characters that she played in “Scream” and “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” which were both violently burned. “It's a range,” she joked. Madison shared that she was a daughter of horses educated at home (“a nerd but with long hair”), revealed her twin brother in the public and said that she would demonstrate the skills of pole dance that she developed for “anora”. A clumsy cut and a muscular double body clearly indicated that the joke was on the public: Madison was not really the pole dance.
Best sketch of the night: a line forms even for this summary
A pre-screwed musical issue features New Yorkers engaging in the largest craze of the city: “Wait in a great stupid line.” Lines for the bagels that have become viral, the lines for the eraser bears of a pop-up store, the lines for the viral matcha or the cronuts. Example of words: “line, line, line, line, what is the use, must be divine.” Unfortunately, long expectations do not always give great rewards: the elements are generally very good or medium, such as mediocre pizza, whether they realize like Joe Jonas presents himself to sing on the joys of the line line. It's a great video to watch … while queuing.
So good: what happens if New York's crazy design was on purpose?
He did not present Mikey Madison at all, but one of the strengths of the week was a short film with Michael Longfellow and Yang as two explorers in 1620 sketching their plan for New York. The streets are in disorder at the bottom, the sections called “squares” are all triangles and the tunnels with trains (which have not yet been invented) are not at all in correlation with the strange streets. Of course, it recalls the Nate Bargatze sketches in which he plays George WashingtonBut the clumsy animation, with its close -ups in break, gives it an additional zip.
