The worst thing that “Saturday Night Live” could have done on an episode featuring the actor of the rising character Walton Goggins, who organized for the first time, was to play safely.
Although many new fans may know him about his recent Tour on season 3 of HBO “The white lotus,Goggins has spent a career playing unsuitable, crazy and southern charms, especially on programs like “justified” and “The Righty Gemstones”, which recently completed its fourth and last season.
Smartly, this week's “SNL” was calibrated on both sides of Goggins; He is an excellent dramatic actor even when he does comedy, and he is good for playing ridiculous characters such as the uncle Bébé Billy on “Gemstones”.
Following a cold open the theme of President Trump who included the welcome return of Cecily Strong as We recently appointed Atty. Jeanine PirroGoggins appeared as a very excited server During a brunch of Mother's Day, a second founding father of amending push Named Matt And a man with very small feet In a musical issue Jane Wickline. They were each of the strong sketches with large turns by goggins.
He was also an actor in a room Play for an audience of 20 assistance dogs In training training, a pre-paved sketch of a boss (goggins) and his wife (Sarah Sherman) who have Particular pole habitsand one on a Restaurant on the theme of horror whose servers (Bowen Yang and Ego Nwodim) find it difficult to make it feel frightening.
Goggins was always funny and solid everywhere, even if he stumbled on a few lines at the start of the show. His commitment to the bits was strong and it was a good appearance overall; He will probably be back. And maybe he will bring his co-star again “White Lotus” Sam Rockwell-he appeared briefly In the tiny feet video.
Speaking of bizarre energy, the musical guests Arcade Fire have played “Pink elephant” And “Snake year. “On the latter, the main singer Win Butler tried without success to break her guitar, then kept it so that the public was seeing the words” The Machine is Broken “. Back in 2007.
In Cold Open this week, it seemed that the spectacle would continue its tradition of the openings of Mother's Day featuring the real mothers of the actors. But this vanity was quickly permeated with another monologue from James Austin Johnson like Trump. This week's riff tackled the Pope Leo of Chicago (“like Da Bears, but prayers”) and Christianity in general. Trump praised the Popemobile as his favorite mobile next to Weiner and beats, but revealed his disdain for holy water. “Why is this thing burnt so bad when it strikes your skin?” He asked. The open cold took off when Cecily Strong appeared as a Pirro, armed with a villain that she called a “comfortable for my Merlotzy”. Pirro was happy to join an administration full of “Russian active ingredients, alcohol dogs and famous people for the little animal babies they killed”. Colin Jost appeared as the Secretary for the besieged Defense Pete Hegseth, who continued to be spitting red wine by Pirro. Before the third time, he held him a pint of his favorite liqueur and opened his mouth to obtain part of the alcohol he says does not drink.
Some “SNL” hosts use the monologue to show their singing skills. Goggins used it to approach what it is to be a sexual symbol at 53 years old (“It's fantastic!”) But underlined unflattering titles that accompanied all the attention, including the cosmopolitan, “Are we all excited for hair behind Walton Goggins?“Goggins has moved gears to talk about the rise by a single mother, aunts and a grandmother in Atlanta. He invited his mother, who was in the audience, on stage to dance with him. When a slow green melody turned into a faster and impressive dance number, it has become a moment of pure joy.
Best sketch of the night: be careful to ask you questions about the “bottomless” mimosas
The Goggins gift to play characters who are both shady and incredibly attractive were fully exposed in this sketch of Mother's Day on a brunch that becomes very, very dirty. Sherman and Heidi Gardner are mothers who dine with their sons (Mikey Day and Andrew Dismukes). The goggins, with many undifferentiated shirt buttons, is a libidinous server that takes its flirting with mothers at extremes. “Just because your mom cooked, you don't mean that other men don't want to see the oven,” he said, urging the sons when they protest on his behavior. Goggins has a lot of fun in it and offers very funny lines.
So good: this zoo trip even has a Sam Rockwell cameo
For those who are lollipops for intelligent and original songs, it was fun this season to watch the new actor Jane Wickline make his brand, mainly in the “Weekend Update” appearances. This time, she takes the spotlight in a clip on a tiny baby shoe found in the Central Park zoo. It turns out that the shoe does not belong to a cute baby, but to an adult man with small feet (goggins). The song takes a turn when the man insists that they go out. Wickline does not have it. It was at this moment that Rockwell appears as himself in the vanity of Cinderella and making animals in balloon. Oh, and he also has tiny feet. It is a strange sketch, but the song is good and Wickline continues to demonstrate that it brings something unique to the show.
Winner of “weekend update”: hates spiders? You will get closer
This week's “update” presented three guests: Marcello Hernández, who brought back her Movie guy character to discuss “sinners” and other films he has not seen; Gardner played a woman Visit New York Who only knows what she read on Facebook about the city; And Mikey Day was a guy who has just entered a spider but is there to talk about prices. Of the three, Day's was perhaps the most impressive because these types of appearance of “update” are generally verbose monologues. Instead, Day started, started panicking when he removed his shirt and fell several times. It was a piece of committed and funny physical comedy, especially for arachnophobic.
