Saturday Night Live Recap: The Right Man For The Moment


Bill Burr uses the post-election monologue to provoke outrage in an otherwise loose, rip-roaring episode.

Snake Skin, the fake band at the center of this sketch, is a mishmash of old-school hair metal groups like Guns N’ Roses, Poison, and Whitesnake — styled so precisely, you can practically smell the Aqua Net. Hats off (pun intended, sadly) to the makeup team for capturing every flavor of the bald guy rainbow and to the writers for highlighting so many bald-guy details, like the pain of having a lone glaring freckle on the top of one’s crown. • Weird to see sports fanaticism depicted as both a feature and bug in strained father-son relationships a second time in such a short span, but the Calling Dad sketch is about bottled-up feelings rather than explosive rage.
