Worth the wait! The Season Finale of Saturday Night Live was one of the better shows from this weird season, maybe the best show of the season. Lil Nas X s wardrobe malfunction wasn t the only highlight. The entire show seemed to have an emotional undertone. In fact, the show s cold open was the cast reflecting on he weird year. It started with Keenan Thompson, Cecily Strong, Aidy Bryant and Kate McKinnon. They all appeared to be emotional with Kate McKinnon even getting choked up and re-doing her line about the cast being a family. My spirit fell when I thought that, perhaps, this could be the end for these cast members. They are my favorites and they have been on the show for quite awhile. A typical SNL contract is for 7 years. All of them have been on the show longer than that. In fact, if it seems like Keenan Thompson has been on the show forever, it s because he is the longest running cast member finishing up 18 seasons on Saturday night.

During a Muppets-themed sketch, Key and cast member Keenan Thompson played members of Kermit s security team at one of the frog s shows. Per Muppet tradition, the performance was repeatedly interrupted by hecklers Statler and Waldorf.
But Key and Thompson s security guards clearly weren t aware of the classic schtick, responding with severity as Statler and Waldorf yelled insults from the box seats. Everybody paid good money to hear this little dragon and his friends do their thing, Key yelled. So please let them do their thing without talking!
As Statler and Waldorf continued to heckle, Key reminded them multiple times that they are more than welcome to leave.
