Saturday Night Live Fantasy League: Episode 44x07: Claire Foy & Anderson .Paak

December 04, 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. 
Here’s the points breakdown for our Fantasy League of Saturday Night Live episode seven of Season 44, which originally aired on December 1st, 2018.

Thank you to Brian E. for the points breakdown! Claire Foy hosted a fun, if uneven, episode of Saturday Night Live this past week! Now that we’re starting the third trio of episodes of the season the producing staff may just be working for the holidays!

Good news everyone, we know who will be hosting this next frame of episodes before the Holiday Break! Next week Jason Mamoa will be hosting, and he will be getting additional points for The Not Ready For First Place Players! Mamoa will be joined by musical guests Mumford & Sons! Mamoa & Sons? Good, got that out of the way. Then the week after that for the official Christmas episode, I imagine, Matt Damon (who actually went undrafted) will be doing some official hosting duties on December 15th with musical guest Mark Ronson and SNL favorite Miley Cyrus!

LAST EPISODE: STEVE CARELL

NEXT EPISODE: JASON MAMOA
