Saturday Night Live Fantasy League: Episode 44x04: Jonah Hill & Maggie Rogers

November 03, 2018

Saturday Night Live Fantasy League presented by Trivia Club, is a Fantasy League like no other. Like Fantasy Football for the comedy nerd, participants draft cast members and prospective hosts before the start of the season and then are awarded points based of their performance through a scoring system. For additional points, before the start of each episode participants can guess which two songs they think the musical guest will perform. Since the beginning, this television institution has become the first step in the major leagues of comedy stardom, and with over forty seasons of familiar traditions, we’ve found a way to add maths to comedy and somehow make that a fun game to play.

Thank you to Megan M. for breaking down the points on this weeks episode! Apologies on my part for getting the post up a little later then usual! The Benihana vaudeville act is still solid gold, reminding me that when he isn’t taking himself too seriously Jonah Hill proves he would have been an ace Saturday Night Live cast member. It’s the kind of showcase that shows he has an almost Adam Sandler style energy but also the acting chops to round it out.

Also, I was wrong last month when I noted it was his fourth time… Jonah Hill is the newest member of the Five Timers Club, and not only that they shone the spotlight on the women in the Club! Well done, all! Tina Fey's appearance also gave War Horse Can Dance some points as well.

Liev Schreiber is hosting next week’s episode of Saturaday Night Live, as all of us predicted, with musical guest Lil Wayne! In fact so many of us thought that Ray Donovan would host that we all agreed not to draft him so as to not tear apart the Fantasy League! Phew, that was a close one. On November 17th, Steve Carell will be hosting with musical guest Ella Mai! Hunter the Hungries Gotta Eat will receive points for drafting Carell, who is hosting for the first time in ten years!

Our Elvis Costello, the Featured Cast Redraft started a little late and thus the new look teams will debut with the next points breakdown! Spoiler alert, Kyle Mooney has found his way back into the Fantasy League!

LAST EPISODE: SETH MYERS

NEXT EPISODE: LIEV SCHREIBER
Liev knows how to have fun.
