Saturday Night Live Fantasy League: Episode 43x06: Chance the Rapper & Eminem
November 19, 2017
Saturday Night Live Fantasy
League presented by Trivia Club, is a Fantasy League like no other.
Like Fantasy Football for the comedy geek, 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 math to comedy and somehow make
that a fun game to play. Play at home,
or keep tabs on how we’re doing in our Saturday Night Live Fantasy
League!

Chance the Rapper is as good a host as one would expect, which is
to say really quite good. Both game to add all that he can to a sketch with his
set of affable, musical, aw shucks set of skills, while also surprising with a Family Feud segment that was
surprisingly wonderful (as it turns out, it’s not just an imitation showcase,
or a way to get Kenan on the show!), and also giving Chris Redd further chance
to break out this season!
Also, I would like to canonize the Weekend Update appearance from
Pete Davidson about Staten Island.
December 2nd, in TWO WEEKS from this episode, it’s a
very pleasant surprise to see Saoirse Ronan hosting! Not only that, but it’s a
very Irish episode of Saturday Night Live, with sudden but always enjoyable (in
this format, because I’ll never forget when Amy Poehler cried from happiness
and exhaustion) U2! Adam Scott just couldn’t get the timing right to host, I
suppose. Ronan looks fantastic in Lady Bird, which I still have to see but I’m
sure you have. It’s really good isn’t it?
LAST EPISODE: TIFFANY HADDISH
NEXT EPISODE: SAOIRSE RONAN
