I thought it was a great episode as well. My biggest complaint is that they have Kate McKinnon playing everyone. But otherwise I liked the sketch. The Nickelback sketch was memorable. I will even defend the Kyle Mooney sketch. It mostly was the same joke told over and over. I liked how they parodied the sloppy MTV editing.
