theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2024/mar/10/saturday-night-live-scarlett-johansson-josh-brolin
Quick Glance: Surprise Appearance by Scarlett Johansson Steals the Show
- The opening of this week's Saturday Night Live with President Joe Biden's State of the Union address and the Republican response from Senator Katie Britt of Alabama was predictable.
- Scarlett Johansson as Britt delivers a shockingly violent monologue about a fictional sex trafficking incident before pitching for Trump and transitioning between theater kid, Home Shopping Network pitchwoman, seductive temptress, and the villainess from Get Out.
- Josh Brolin takes the stage for the third time as host. His performance is a bit scattered, but his charisma makes it work. In one sketch, a married couple (Brolin and Heidi Gardner) with a role-play fetish try to outwit armed bank robbers.
- Another sketch features a support group for people pleasers falling into toxic patterns. Ariana Grande appears as a desperate people pleaser. The episode had some bright spots, with Brolin's energy and Johansson's perfect appearance.

Quick Glance: 'SNL' Recap: Kate McKinnon Returns with Maya Rudolph, Kristen Wiig
- Kate McKinnon made her hosting debut, bringing Maya Rudolph and Kristen Wiig back too; Billie Eilish performed her single from 'Barbie;' and Colin Jost and Michael Che held their Christmas Joke Swap.
- Kate McKinnon's first time hosting 'Saturday Night Live' was a reminder that she left an off-kilter, screwball humor void when she departed in 2022 that has taken multiple cast members to fill.
- McKinnon's monologue was paced and delivered as only she could do, and in sketch after sketch in her hosting turn, McKinnon showed why even those that don't completely work benefit from her self-aware asides and 'just overjoyed to be here' energy.
- As if to hammer that point home, she brought with her two other women who made their marks on 'SNL' as completely unique comic performers: Maya Rudolph and Kristen Wiig.
