"Writing-wise, I really liked every sketch this episode, which doesn't happen a ton. Even though Damon's other characters were more limited in scope (see: husband, husband but playing himself, a guy from Boston, etc), his joke"
Matt Damon hosted Saturday Night Live for a third time, taking the role seriously and performing strongly throughout the episode. The cold open reprised his role as Brett Kavanaugh, joined by Pete Hegseth and Kash Patel in a bar setting. The monologue centered on Mother’s Day with a brief, Cameo-style message that joked about the timing of the movie he was promoting. Damon played physical characters including a navy admiral addicted to spit takes and a substitute teacher forcing painful dancing on students. Some sketches ran long or stayed one-note, but his energy kept them engaging. The writing was praised for consistently landing across the episode.
