Motion to make Emma Thompson permanent host. Is that a seconded I hear? Motion passes!

After the nostalgic highs of last week's Adam Sandler-hosted installment, this week's show managed to start extremely strong but ultimately didn't have quite the firepower to sustain things after [Weekend] Update.

Hosting SNL proved to be something of a doddle, with the game and effortlessly professional Thompson showing that she could do this sort of thing anytime she wants, should she want.

Bringing your mom out is a cute extra, but it's not a comedy bit unto itself. This needed a re-write - or, just a write would have been fine.

The British actress brought some serious comedic chops to the show, fueled by her longtime acting careers, and the result was a hilarious episode that stayed true to the tradition of the Mother's Day episode by having some great special guests pop up.

With Emma Thompson as host, this penultimate edition of the year was in fact a good one: A charmer with a couple of memorable skits.

Dauntless thesp Emma Thompson displays no nerves and no doubts in her SNL debut. The material, however, doesn't feel all that suited to her.
May 13, 2019
Overall it's a fine episode of Saturday Night Live, with a surprisingly strong Weekend Update and a few moments of brilliance. Emma Thompson is a delight in general, so hopefully, she gets to come back and host again sometime.

Unfortunately the beloved thespian was given little to do.

The late-season episode allowed the writers to cut a little looser than the average this week, with a few sketches excelling by allowing the cast to run with screwball material, both modern and enjoyably old-fashioned.

The second to last episode of the season, this was a middle-of-the-road effort. Thompson was fine, as were the Jonas Brothers, but no moment really stood out.
