All I saw was Louis monologue and I thought it was hilarious

[K270]

The Louis CK show was o.k. I liked the Clown sketch the best.

[K270]

Really enjoyed tonights cold opening with Jason Aldean paying tribute to the victims of the Las Vegas shooting by covering Tom Pettys I Won't Back Down.

[jmkratt]

Yeah I am not an Aldean fan, but that was money

The rest of the show sucked though.

[Climb2safety]

Absolutely brilliant

[Lee3691]

I liked the idea of the tribute better than the execution - why does Aldean need 4 guitarists?

I thought it was a pretty weak cover, tbh. Also thought it was a weird song choice. The shooter is dead. Not sure what there is for Las Veg...ans(?) to not back down from.

Without advocating any political viewpoints I took it to mean more of a won’t back down from evil. Dunno. Haven’t watched the actual performance yet.

[Ascf33]

I appreciate the idea and sentiment but yeah I didn't care for the performance at all. I thought it was awful.

Safelite is snowflaking hard about the skit this weekend

Sexual predation is funny, except when it's Trump, then it's disgusting. Got it

What I was saying is that snl to say it's a New York thing not to make fun of other New Yorkers but then to routinely hammer trump is what is funny.

Trump even tweeted about it. Just a little troll job they are doing in him I think.

And it's not just snl, all the late night shows are laying off Weinstein.

And it's not just snl, all the late night shows are laying off Weinstein.

The hosts of ABC's "The View" on Monday told newcomer Meghan McCain to "give it a minute" on more Hollywood stars speaking out about the explosive allegations of sexual harassment against Harvey Weinstein when she noted a "lot of crickets" on the issue so far.

The initial allegations broke on Thursday afternoon in a bombshell article by the New York Times, which included revelations that Weinstein had settled decades of harassment claims with at least eight women.

As more accusers have come forward, Weinstein has been fired by The Weinstein Company and several Democrats have given away his contributions to them.

Some Hollywood stars like Jessica Chastain and Meryl Streep have spoken out about the allegations, but CNN host Brian Stelter pointed out Monday that "many A-listers" have remained silent about Weinstein, an Oscar-winning producer whose fingerprints are on some of Hollywood's biggest movies over the past 30 years.

McCain said she often was asked questions about the sexual harassment scandals at Fox News Channel while she worked there and wondered why the same standard wasn't being applied in Hollywood, noting that even "Saturday Night Live" reportedly axed jokes about the scandal for its latest show.

"This happened Thursday night," host Whoopi Goldberg said. "So it's Monday morning, so if we don't hear anything else in the next day or two, I think I would be shocked, but I think people are assessing what did I know, and did I know it?"

"And did I look the other way?" host Sunny Hostin asked.

McCain said she'd read about the experiences of actress Rose McGowan, one of Weinstein's accusers who he settled with in 1997. McGowan has tweeted numerous times since the story broke urging people to break their silence.

"There are a lot of crickets right now, and let me tell you, the media is more than happy to dance on the grave of Bill O'Reilly and all the other sexual harassers in conservative media," McCain said. "I don't understand why those same standards [don't apply in] Hollywood."

"Give it a minute," host Joy Behar said.

Goldberg agreed to "give it a minute," pointing out "The View" immediately addressed the controversy on Friday.

Thought SNL is irrelevant and not funny anymore, why do you care what skits they have or don't have?

Also, aren't we supposed to assume sexual harassment accusers are all fame whores? He's innocent!

This is a copy pasta right? What is your point?

I think we are agreeing tbh. They are all laying off Weinstein.

Is it hypocritical? On the surface it sure seems like it.

I don't know why they are though. They all hammered Bill Cosby really good.

They a stuff has been going on forever in Hollywood though. And beauty pageants. This is pretty much what Trump was coping to. That doesn't make it right.

Cosby wasn't cared about anymore and he wasn't a MAJOR figure anymore like Harvey is/was. He can ruin careers if he gets out of this.

[daveshookme]

That Matt Lauer line on the cold open had me literally choking on my own laugh.

[AJF_41]

even though the bleeding skit has been done a million times, i was rolling on the gift wrapping scene

[Ascf33]

yeah I really liked this week's.

Little Pig Boy comes from the dirt.

[BTBaboon]

Recreating Meet the Parents with Stiller and De Niro was awesome!

[blaise34]

This is already the best SNL of the season. Mulaney is one of the funniest dudes working
