Glen Powell & Olivia Dean
November 15, 2025
Confession: I don’t get Glen Powell. I understand that he’s conventionally handsome and that he’s a huge movie star and that he has a “boyish charm” or whatever. But I also find his face kinda punchable? Not my thing, I guess, is what I’m saying; his name on the marquee is not going to draw me in.
So color me shocked at how charmed I was by Powell’s freshman outing as host of Saturday Night Live. He was funny and clearly having a great time in every sketch, and, dare I say it, endearing, thanks in large part to a winning monologue that helped explain why this is his first time on the 8H stage. I don’t know that you’d count me as a “fan” of Glen Powell now, but I definitely walked away from this episode liking him more than I did coming into it.
Oh, and yeah, they also gave us new “MacGruber,” as a little treat. And though it’s only the 6th episode of the season, it’s the best so far.
