I don’t know why it’s been 20 years since Jack Black hosted Saturday Night Live — did he have something against Kate McKinnon? — but he came roaring back this week with more energy than all the other season 50 hosts combined. Jack Black is a reliable comedic force. Is he a bit much? Yes, often.

Saturday Night Live
Bill Burr & Mk.gee
November 9, 2024

Let me just say before going into this recap that I am still furious about the election and the very last thing I needed to comfort me through it was a both-sides-are-stupid comedian talking down to women. Did this color my ability to enjoy this episode? ABSOLUTELY. But here we are, like it or not.
