![]() As of 2020, Christopher has hosted only one additional time after tonight’s episode (which is unfathomable), and that episode breaks tradition by refraining from doing a Continental sketch. This ends up being the final Continental sketch. The Continental pursues a spokesmodel for his line of beauty products Remember a few seasons later when SNL inexplicably tries to re-create this classic sketch with fucking Robert DeNiro, of all people? Oh, I’ll definitely have things to say about THAT when we come to it. Christopher, on his hatred of stiffly stifflersons: “I wanna prank them for hours in my basement.” Seth is fine in this sketch, and this is coming from someone who doesn’t care much for him. I never got why that was such a hot topic. I remember a lot of debate on SNL forums back in the day about Seth’s performance in this sketch being overrated. Very funny how the show’s crew is inappropriately continuing to play goofy, cartoonish sound effects when Christopher is proudly bragging about his dark, deathly “prank”. An absolutely priceless turn with Christopher’s “prank” being him violently beating Parnell to death with a tire iron. Just the mere idea of Christopher being a fan of such a juvenile show like this is hilarious in itself. Seth and Kattan are solid at selling the cheesy goofiness of this show. To (host), murder by tire iron is a hilarious practical joke Christopher deserved better than this, especially given the epic monologue from his last episode in season 26. At the same time, however, I wish this monologue weren’t so half-assed by the writers. An overall short and intentionally simple monologue with a very careless, “Ehh, let’s get this over with” attitude, which is something that Christopher Walken is one of the few SNL hosts who can get away with making come off acceptable. Christopher’s backup dancers are being played by extras instead of the female cast this time? Just now, Christopher said “crazy mix-em-ups”, a variation of his legendary “crazy make-em-ups” line. Funny how he IMMEDIATELY goes into casually speaking to us as soon as his song-and-dance number abruptly stops. Wow, he dives right into his obligatory song-and-dance number this time, with no set up. Well-deserved extended applause for Christopher at the beginning. Host sings “Exactly Like You” & brings on some dancing girls I can’t remember if he does the creepy-looking camera staredown afterwards in that version or not. SNL would later replace this “Live from New York…” with the dress rehearsal version in reruns. ![]() We also get this epic creepy Walken stare into the camera immediately afterwards: Christopher delivers his very first and, I think, only “Live from New York…”, which he, of course, does in his trademark slow and awkward style. A lot of Parnell’s lines in this have been forgettable (which is unusual, as he used to always get the funniest lines in Hardball sketches, before he got fired in 2001), but I did like his bit right now about attacking countries in alphabetical order. Very funny reveal from Christopher’s French foreign minister that France is only being pro-war “just to be, how you say, douchebag.” Chris Matthews, to the French foreign minister: “That’s big talk from a country who’s only contributions to world culture in the last 50 years are Gerard Depardieu and that horny skunk!” ![]() Darrell’s Chris Matthews almost slipped into Dennis Miller territory with his “I haven’t seen a group of people this crazy for blood since the Cobra Kai chased Daniel-San out of the Halloween dance in Karate Kid.” All he needed was a more obscure reference and either a “Cha-cha” or a “Ha-HAAAA!” at the end. Good to see Christopher Walken not only appearing right at top of the show, but in a Hardball sketch to boot. ![]() This is especially needed at this point, considering how terrible a lot of cold openings have been in the second half of this season so far. Nice to see that the reliability and popularity of these Hardball sketches has gotten to the point where SNL is now using them as a cold opening.
