Season 46 of Saturday Night Live came to a close this weekend, bringing an end to what was an undeniably weak season. The show should definitely be cut some slack – the cast and crew were working under the myriad restrictions and pressures of Covid, after all – but still, you’d think a year this historic and insane would inspire them to produce at least a couple of classic moments.
Alas, that wasn’t the case. That’s not to say there weren’t any solid sketches throughout the season. The following 10 might not be classics, but they provided a good number of laughs during a very weary year.
She made her hosting debut on Saturday Night Live over the weekend.

Morgan Wallen was invited, disinvited, then cancelled. Donald Trump was president, claimed COVID would disappear, then got COVID while in office. Jim Carrey played Joe Biden. Elon Musk played Wario. And
Saturday Night Live did a 15 minutes sketch about a fly landing on Mike Pence s head during a presidential debate.
Season 46 of SNL feels like it s been going on for approximately five years. It was a season made under incredibly difficult circumstances kicking off during the waning days of the Trump presidency and with a deadly pandemic raging across the globe and the comedy has suffered as a result. There were only three or four really good episodes this season, and only a handful of hosts who were in sync with the rhythms of live sketch comedy. Otherwise, there were moments where the strain of trying to make comedy out of this historically dark period was just unpleasant.
