This weekend the diminutive comedian Kevin Hart hosted Saturday Night Live, and what the show lacked in polish (everyone seemed a little loopy) it certainly made up for in weird energy. Every sketch felt like the 12:50 AM sketch, if you know what I mean. One such example was a parody of CNN’s “The Situation Room,” in which Jason Sudeikis’s Wolf Blitzer awaited the announcement of the new pope.

Remember when we had some suggestions for what the pope might do with his free time now that he’s no longer obligated to perform his papal duties? Well, Saturday Night Live had a similar idea in this commercial parody that aired this weekend for Papal Securities.

Justin Bieber was the host and the musical guest on Saturday Night Live this weekend, and boy did he ever seem like a teenager. He spent most of the episode looking and sounding quite out of his depth, but there were a couple of gems hidden away in a decidedly mediocre episode.

Guys. What was even happing on Saturday Night Live this weekend. Between “Maine Justice,” “Dermot Mulroney or Dylan McDermott” and ex-porn stars shilling for “Sabowski Crystals” it was a ridiculous, punchy night from start to finish. Host Jamie Foxx was so aggressively present in all the sketches that it felt like some of the regular players didn’t get much of a chance to shine, and it did little to help the ongoing battle of the ladies that has been waged between Kate McKinnon, Cecily Strong, Nasim Pedrad and Vanessa Bayer this fall. And then there was Aidy Bryant.

Did you miss Arianna Huffington calling Seth her “little potato pancake?” Here’s your chance to rectify that wrong.

No one really seemed to know how to take on Ann Romney in a humorous way this fall — even her parody Twitter account has been dead since September 6th — but that changed this weekend when new cast member Kate McKinnon debuted her Ann Romney impression on SNL’s “Weekend Update.”

When Michele Bachmann dropped out of the presidential race this week, we thought it was because of bad results in the Iowa caucus. But Saturday Night Live, of course, has some other ideas.
