Thank you all for following my blog tonight

That concludes my live-blogging coverage Thank you all for following my blog tonight and stay tuned for more Nater-Tainment!  Good night everybody!

Well, that's the show. Not a Terrible Show Tonight at All!!

Jim Carrey was easily the best part of the show.  His energetic performances really were a significant part of why tonight's show wasn't bad at all.  Also, it seemed as if most of the cast were trying to improve the quality of the sketches as well.  Taran Killam and Kate McKinnon got good airtime in sketches this week And Leslie Jones got to be showcased well for her first night as a credited castmember.  In addition, Michael Che continues to impress me with his dynamic delivery on "Weekend Update."  I really wish he would be anchoring the weekly segment by himself and that Colin Jost would stick to being just a writer.  Also, some the sketches tonight weren't bad.  Even though the "Jim Carrey Family Reunion" sketch was basically a rehash of a sketch from 2008, I enjoyed seeing the cast act like Carrey and dress up as different roles that Carrey had played in movies.  Also, the best sketches of the night were the "Office Party Costume Conest sketch (mainly due to Jim carrey's and Kate McKinnon's fun performances) as well as the Graveyard sketch (mainly due to Jim Carrey's and Taran Killam's performances).  All in all, not a perfect episode, but still not a terrible episode.

One last sketch

Jim Carrey's the best part of this sketch.  His creepy character was the only funny part. Vanessa bayer and Cecily Strong were alright, though their material wasn't funny at all. Jim Carrey was basically holding the weight of that sketch.  He was a very good host tonight!

Not a great performance by Iggy Azalea at all!! Bring on Prince next week!!!

He'll bring the goods as the musical guest.  The show is almost over.

Jim Carrey's sketch performances have been great tonight

He really out his comedic energy into the show tonight.  The writing of the sketches wasn't great, but his performances really saved the quality of the show.

We are back with Iggy Azalea

She is not a great performer at all.  Her singing voice isn't great all and she's got bad dance moves.  Not a great musical guest at all!

I'm guessing Iggy Azalea's second performance is coming up next

Office Halloween party sketch

Vanessa Bayer's character here isn't funny at all.  Bayer has been having an off year.  The joke of Jim Carrey wearing the same costume as Kate McKinnon's character.  This is basically a one-joke sketch as well.  Though Jim Carrey's performance has alot of energy.  He's really been giving it his all tonight.  Carrey and McKinnon dancing throughout the studio was anice tough to the sketch though.  I always like whenever the host and cast brake the fourth wall by going off stage.  It's agood reminder that SNL is a true variety show and anything can happen when it's live.  I liked Lorne Michael's appearance as well.

Oops. I think a sketch is coming up next.

Iggy Azalea's next performance is coming up

Kenan Thompson's loud 'acting' has been very annoying tonight

Though it's pretty much his typical shtick on the show.  What a shame.  That ending was a tad predictable.  Not too bad of a sketch though.  Would have liked something a little more unexpected though.

This is pretty much a one-joke sketch, though Jim Carrey and Pete Davidson are saving it with their performances

Zombie apocalypse sketch.

At least they are doing some creative ideas for sketches tonight.  I'm glad that Pete Davidson is getting good role in this sketch

That pre-filmed sketch wasn't bad. Leslie Jones is getting good airtime her first episode this season.

Commercials are on now

Jim Carrey's performance was the best part of the sketch

He's been the best part of the sketches in the show.  He's improving the quality of the writing with his comedic performances.

This seems like it could be a good sketch

Jim Carrey is humorous here as his Illuminati character.  He's got a good delivery.  His robotic hand is a humorous addition to the sketch.  The writing isn't terrible in this sketch.

Next sketch is on now

A parody of the reality show "Secret Billionaire."

I have to say that I've been getting more impressed by Michael Che each live show

His quick delivery and personality has COMPLETELY overshadowed Colin Jost's bland brand of comedy.  I wonder if Michael Che will be having main roles in sketches outside of "Weekend Update" any time soon.  I think he would do well with sketch comedy.  On a side note, Vanessa Bayer's new character was not funny at all and Bobby Moynihan's Drunk Uncle bit dragged on too long as usual.

I like Bobby Moynihan in doing more subtle roles on the show.

All his reoccurring characters mainly do is speak way too loudly and just go on too long.
