Since dropping the deadweight like Horatio Sanz and picking up the new young people, the show's been getting progressively better.

Tonight's episode has been hilarious so far.

The monologue spoof of The Office and the digital short were both pretty brilliant.

The skit where they reminisced over that old Kenny Loggins song was pretty solid, but Sweet Jebus when are they gonna finally put that never-funny Nuni sketch out of its misery?!?!?

I thought that the skits I truly found humorous were funny because they were disturbing or creepy.
I also wish that the Arcade Fire would have played a better second song, and what the hell did Richard Reed Perry and Wynn Butler do to their hair.

The more I think about it, that fucking Nüni shit is probably one of the five worst recurring skerches in the entire history of the show, including the woeful Charles Rocket years.

I mean, do the writers and cast REALLY think it's that funny?!?

I kinda like Win's hair. What did he do to his guitar, though? A broken string does not make a guitar useless. Dude needs to chill over spilled milk.

They sounded good, though.

We thought they kicked ass. Very, very impressed.

BAD hair though. And I'm not a fan of the "pants tucked into combat boots" look. Still. Refreshingly good.

I'm guessing they get some enjoyment of doing this skit because it's not funny. Some sort of in-joke?

a few very funny moments in some good sketches, but nothing truly great and a nuni recurrence always drags down any show a few notches. also, arcade fire was alright. the first song was pretty dull and the second i guess was fine. i haven't heard the new album yet. are those representative of it?

AF were great! Heard they did a mini-set for the audience after the credits rolled.

I thought it was off to a good start but finished badly.

Haven't watched regularly since about 1990 or so.

What did it say on bad haircut guy's guitar during the first song, before he smashed it?
