Saturday Night Live's 50th season marked a significant anniversary with special events and high-profile guest stars, yet the overall consistency of episodes was lacking. Despite some memorable sketches, like the viral Domingo series featuring major pop stars, many others fell flat. Andy Samberg's digital shorts brought comedic value along with classic sketches such as the election-themed game show What's That Name?, which cleverly addressed political memory and relevance. The season was chaotic and somewhat disappointing overall, failing to fully capitalize on its milestone status.
The early part of the season saw the return of Andy Samberg, who was cast as would-be first dude Doug Emhoff.
The best election sketch saw the return of gleefully sadistic game show What's That Name?, where John Mulaney struggled to remember key political figures.
