Man with the Body of a Baby is always funnier than its material, because Beck Bennet does that eerily well. And it's so physical!

Jay Pharoah's secret rappers meeting was great.

American Ninja Warrior was a great example of a fairly obvious joke executed perfectly.

Also glad to see the return of Olya. "He never has and he never will".

It was an energetic episode, and loved it very much. Drake's Beef somehow amused me no end...

Considering the others he said he'd visit, I'm a bit concerned about what Shane is going to do that caused Future Shane to come back. Or already did, considering his poor grasp of timelines.

So he's not the best host, but Drake always seems to be having so damn much fun on SNL that it makes his episodes fun to watch.
