This was last week’s rerun. This week’s rerun was Shane Gillis and 21 Savage.

I actually watched the full episode for once (except for Papyrus 2, which I didn't get the joke of), and I like, never do that with SNL the morning after any more. Good job, Gos!

Here’s part one of the Papyrus sketch in case you haven’t seen it.

I loved the "Get the Boy Back" - the Carrie Underwood but with psychological torture musical number. I've re-watched it on youtube multiple times. This is the sort of dark, offbeat, unexpected humor that I wish SNL would do more often.

And Ryan Gosling as a Lin Manuel Miranda style rapper just takes it to another level.
