"And there she is randomly cameoing as a fellow short queen in Quinta Brunson's monologue last May! And there's Kyle Mooney appearing in her Netflix Christmas special! And Jane Wickline then did a Weekend Update desk bit about said Netflix special! This is all to say that Carpenter's been primed for this gig for at least a year, so perhaps it's no surprise that she availed herself incredibly well on Saturday."
"It would be easy to call Carpenter a natural, but it's important to remember that she is a Disney kid through and through, and I mean that as a compliment. The star of Girl Meets World at 14, Carpenter received the kind of grueling comedic acting training reserved for Disney's suite of industrious child actors. Her charisma and stage confidence were on full display in this solid episode, along with her finely-tuned sense of timing and genuinely unexpected line reads. Put this girl in a Goldie Hawn-style rom-com caper now!"
