Okay, but was Agatha Christie a recurring character on Scooby-Doo? No!
Ellison 1, Christie 300

I think a lot about how Harlan Ellison said in an interview that Agatha Christie’s work would be forgotten five minutes after her death, and (by implication) his work would live on, and nearly the opposite has occurred. I’m not even sneering at Ellison. Just how we don’t understand posterity.

Don’t give this administration that much data. It’s not worth the fraud that will happen because of how they fucked the systems with DOGE.
I completely understand people who cancel their USA travel plans.

NEW: Five years of social media history is only a fraction of what the US Government will shortly demand of overseas visitors.
The full requirements will end tourism in the United States.
Below is the full, mind-blowing list.

Glen Powell hosted an outstanding episode. Cast members (Marcello, Chloe, and Ashley) lead some of their best pieces, and the lows were just fine.
But Powell had a lot of fun, and I want to see him again. 9/10 night. #SNL

Ashley Padilla continues her outstanding second season with awful haircut/skin square sketch. IT is just incredible to see her react to people with just awkward humor to hide the pain.
She is an all-star. #SNL

And great news: Olivia Dean is performing a solid little pop number. This night is kinda of magical after SNL has been struggling for quite a bit. #SNL

And the Bobs vs Bangs was kinda stupid. But a.) it is earned after 30 minutes of great material and b.) just build up to fun ending. #SNL

Surprise MacGruber was a blast. I can always live with more Will Forte in my life. Better than the version that he did when he hosted last. #SNL

Chloe Fineman is someone with not the greatest range. This Norwegian acting sketch is playing to her strengths.
First sketch that could be on Chloe's Best of DVD in several months. #SNL

I am honestly shocked! Glen Powell's opening gambit (the cold open/monologue/first 3 sketches) were all great.
I am hoping that keeps the momentum, but even if doesn't just this opening run makes for the best episode of season so far. #SNL

For the first time this season, we got a banger leadoff sketch. It attacks AI smartly, also the HOT DOG with 2 tails on grill made me laugh out all. #SNL

Glen Powell might have dodged a bullet... because the episode he was supposed to host was the COVID-destroyed Paul Rudd Christmas episode.
Good on him for showing up the USP Driver. Good monologue #SNL

Two issues with that cold open: 1.) Shane Gillis was the best part which is a bad sign and 2.) Why was The Phantom of The Opera used as a closing beat? #SNL

I went out of this episode with three things:
1) Chloe can't straight man, so the show should stop overusing her
2)Sabrina is a charming host
2) Ashley might be one of the greatest performers that the show has ever at. She lifted mountains to make that fart sketch work.
5/10 #SNL

Glad to have a burst of Midwestern energy to the show with Tommy Brennan's 1st big piece. A good one of these pieces that introduce a cast member to the audience. Very charming would like to see more. #SNL

Sabrina is sure hosting an episode that is good for people who just aged out of watching the Disney Channel.
But she is giving it all tonight, and I like it. #SNL

Grind time does capture the middle-school energy with how they have to figure out puberty. And that was the best pre-tape of the season so far.
Just a great use of Bowen and Sabrina. #SNL

Snack Homez was a rare, good Trump sketch. It is nice to portray the willingness of big Republicans (JD Vance) to show up on random podcasts. And the mumbling bits worked on Podcast setting. #SNL
