Shane Gillis once again delivers the worst ‘Saturday Night Live’ of the season

Because 2025 is one big experiment to test my patience, Lorne Michaels decided that he needed to bring Shane Gillis, failed SNL cast member, back to host again even though he bombed spectacularly when he hosted for first time last year. And let me tell you, Gillis didn’t do better this go-round. If anything, somehow it was worse.

It’s been a long five years, what with Aquaman and Dune and Fast X and a global pandemic, but I’m here to tell you that not much has changed for Jason Momoa. He’s still that goofy, energetic guy whose enthusiasm is often the single thing that saves some pretty middling sketches from themselves. And you’ll never guess what grade this episode received.
