It wasn't that good. The host was Christoph Waltz from Inglorius Basterds and Django Unchained. He was ok but seemed out of his element somehow. All of the sketches were week, especially the News bit which now gives way too much time to comedians doing long bits instead of the usual short 5 second jokes it should delivery.
The band was Alabama Shakes. They are a weird looking group but sounded fucking great. Never heard of them before.
The Best SNL was a couple of months ago with Mick Jagger. He sand with 4 different bands including the Foo Fighters and a Montreal band. the show was really funny and had lots of surprise guests too.
SNL is "ok" most of the time, pretty funny sometimes, and hilarious on the rare occasion. They just need to tighten up the jokes, drop a player or two, take chances with jokes that are more edgy.
