Would Saturday Night Live be more exciting than the Superbowl?
Listen to the podcast:
This weekend featured the third new edition of Saturday Night Live in a row. The latest outing was hosted by Melissa McCarthy (hosting for the 3rd time) with Musical Guest, Imagine Dragons. The show was also the final episode featuring Seth Meyers as host of Weekend Update and head writer. Rob Cesternino and Rich Tackenberg (@richtack) recap everything that was working and not working in the episode.
Plus, we have the debut of our Musical Guest correspondent, James Keast (@ExclaimEditor), to discuss the musical stylings of Imagine Dragons.
