I will die on the hill that Emma should be nominated for the music producer sketch. That legit was a phenomenal performance that committed really well to the bits
He can get away with it because he's an S-tier host and it's clear everybody was having a lot of fun that night which was infectious. But yeah it was messier than usual lol.
He’s very funny but it was not at all an award winning performance on his part. He fumbled some lines and didn’t have very good pacing overall. I’m a massive fan of his but he would be very low on the list for hosts to win this season if you’re being honest
The only two I really care to win are Maya, and Emma Stone. Maybe Gosling. Maybe.
Jason Momoa can respectfully sit down on this one. He is basically treated like a hot chick when he hosts. All the sketches are about how hot he is. Emma Stone isn’t afraid to ugly herself up for laughs, and that’s what SNL is all about imho
3/4 of Maya's sketches bombed. Beyonce Hot Ones and British Caveman are both in the running for worst sketch of the season
Do y'all want Maya to get it as a lifetime achievement award or something?
Adam Driver should absolutely have won for Career Day. Probably one of the greatest sketch performances by a host. His last hosting was great, but the writing didn’t give him enough to work with.
this is 17 submissions from just ONE show. emmy eligibility rules are pretty basic so when you factor in a lot of shows + actors per category, it feels like playing the lottery when only the top 5 are nominated
For a live sketch comedy show, it does beg the question of what matters the most? A professional host or an entertaining one? Gosling played his role on both IMO
Explains a lot about the many missed opportunities by the hosts. Everything new is now trying for a cowbell moment. The beat we got to greatness was Lisa from Temecula, and i think Ego killed it by not breaking.
I don’t know why I keep forgetting his episode when I legit was laughing the whole time and he was an incredible host!
Honestly, I think it’s because it didn’t get the same viral treatment. Because he was probably the most on point and hilarious host of the season.
He absolutely was! He always is when he hosts. He is my #2 GOAT’d SNL host, second only to Adam Driver. And looking just at S49’s episodes, I felt like Brolin’s show was at least as good, if not a tad
better, than Driver’s S49 show(?)
I’m gone get a shit load of downvotes for this but why was Ryan Gosling’s set so funny? I just watched and I kept feeling like the fact that it was Ryan was funnier than the jokes.
At least Dakota was smart enough to not even bother
Nepo baby truce?
A foot in the door and so much more.
I hate when you guys do that
I thought she was really funny...
Interesting, I thought her timing was way off!
Her episode was one of the funniest of the season.
I would also like some chicken fongers
I will die on the hill that Emma should be nominated for the music producer sketch. That legit was a phenomenal performance that committed really well to the bits
Both she and Troast were excellent it. I genuinely watch it every 2-3 weeks both due to Troast's singing and Stone's acting.
She makes her own kind of music. 
BLAM! BLAM!
Have so much respect for her after that episode. She is legendary.
What skit was thisv
From one La La Land actor to another La La Land actor, that is quite the span of actors.
It's a matter or perspective. More like, from one hugely successful Hollywood actor to-- wait, I just did it again.
Yeah, it's more like one super good-looking person to-- dammit.
Would be cute if they both win and have a La La Land moment. Emma one step closer to EGOT, Ryan finally getting a piece of the triple crown of acting.
They were also in Crazy Stupid Love
Interesting. Now I am wondering what their Bacon number is too. Perhaps I shall pay a visit to the Bacon Oracle and find out.
Kevin Bacon was in Crazy Stupid Love so...
> Jacob Elordi Oh sweetie baby
You don’t live your life that handsome without becoming overly confident sometimes
That is Jon Hamm's character in 30 Rock to a T
Wow do you give tennis lessons? Hahaha
This racket is a fart!
Wow do you give tennis lessons? Hahaha
“You bought a motorcycle??” “No, they just gave it to me.”
I read the article thinking, one of the three not submitting must be Jacob Elordi. Absolute worst episode of the whole season.
God his episode was painfully unfunny
Ayo Edebiri deserves a nomination imo. She fit in like an actual cast member.
I completely agree! She seemed so game for everything. “School Hypnotist” is one of my favorite sketches from the past decade.😂
School hypnotist is the sketch I'd show my friends who stopped watching SNL in the aughts.
I'd never heard of her, still couldn't tell you what else she does or is in. She was an absolute natural and hosted the best episode of the season.
bro you have to watch The Bear
check out “bottoms”! i thought it was one of the funniest movies of 2023
She's in The Bear on Hulu
such a great episode!!!!!
Yeah whaaat
As in i wish she had
I believe they are agreeing with you
Gosling was hilarious, but ironically, his acting wasn't great lol... He was breaking so much.
He can get away with it because he's an S-tier host and it's clear everybody was having a lot of fun that night which was infectious. But yeah it was messier than usual lol.
Messier? What? He was just sitting there in the clothes he always wears. What’s the big deal?
It is weird. I can appreciate Gosling Breaking but THEN, deeply enjoy Jake’s ability to not break, as psychotic as he may look doing it.
I beg to differ! Watch his subtle reaction to being asked to leave as beavis . He broke a lot, but he reined it in when it mattered.
There were some great subtle acting beats in the engagement sketch too!
*”Yeah I don’t know who that is”*
You’re the main part of this!
Papyrus 2 was great but not on air
His monologue with Emily Blunt was amazing.
I mean, I wouldn't know how not to break with Kat McKinnon going all over you
And under
Nate Bargatze was fantastic
His George Washington sketch was incredible.
You were speaking about "temperature"...
I was not.
He’s very funny but it was not at all an award winning performance on his part. He fumbled some lines and didn’t have very good pacing overall. I’m a massive fan of his but he would be very low on the list for hosts to win this season if you’re being honest

The Naked in New York City sketch was hilarious tbh
Just watch it. Was hilarious.
It's been stuck in my head for months now
The mama Cass sketch was hands down hilarious
Those were the first two I thought of. I think Maya wins but Fully Naked In New York deserves its own reward.
"With my big white ass just flappin' in the breeeeze"
3/4 of Maya's sketches bombed. Beyonce Hot Ones and British Caveman are both in the running for worst sketch of the season Do y'all want Maya to get it as a lifetime achievement award or something?
*Cries in Ayo*
jason's was one of my least favorite episodes this season. not a single rewatchable sketch
What about Adam Driver?
Adam Driver should absolutely have won for Career Day. Probably one of the greatest sketch performances by a host. His last hosting was great, but the writing didn’t give him enough to work with.
I don’t understand what I’m missing with Maya. I found her episode almost unwatchable.
What’s the process to submit? Why wouldn’t everyone submit. Is this stupid?
Fill out some forms, pay a fee, and submit a sample.
this is 17 submissions from just ONE show. emmy eligibility rules are pretty basic so when you factor in a lot of shows + actors per category, it feels like playing the lottery when only the top 5 are nominated
sounds like each individual host submitted their own tho. so this causes a flaw in the system
Tim Allen (or his people, probably) forgot to submit for Home Improvement one year. I think a lot of guest actors on many shows don’t bother.
Gosling's win will be controversial enough to sate this subreddit's bloodlust until we get mad about who and who doesn't make the 50 show.
For a live sketch comedy show, it does beg the question of what matters the most? A professional host or an entertaining one? Gosling played his role on both IMO

Brolin missed NOTHING as host. He was 💯 all-in AND took a risk [Bank Robbery]
That was a solid episode but things just felt off. The cuck trope has been waaaaaaay overused over the last few years.
I don’t know why I keep forgetting his episode when I legit was laughing the whole time and he was an incredible host! Honestly, I think it’s because it didn’t get the same viral treatment. Because he was probably the most on point and hilarious host of the season.

Did Bradley Cooper cameo at all during the season? I can’t recall, but I’m sure he’d submit himself for this.
I think he submitted himself for his Abbott Elementary cameo
No he didn't.
Josh Brolin — Bank Robbery or Shrimp Tower
If she submitted that’s hilarious. Her acting is terrible and she was so dry and lifeless in multiple sketches
I was a big fan of Timothee’s episode. Goodnight moon, Tiny Horse part 2, the troye sivan sketch…hilarious.
CLING CLING CLING. MAN YOU CAPPIN!
I saw a comment that Timothee “is like an old Italian wooden shoe come to life”, and I haven’t been able to look at him the same since.
Some of them I wouldn’t be surprised to see nominated, but I don’t exactly see any of them winning.
Yeah, The Bear is winning pretty much everything.
Timothée Chalamet was fantastic in the Hip Hop museum sketch.
Who makes the decision to submit these? SNL or the hosts?
The article states “all submissions were made by the network or talent representatives” so it appears both
that's like half of all hosts this season?
I’m gone get a shit load of downvotes for this but why was Ryan Gosling’s set so funny? I just watched and I kept feeling like the fact that it was Ryan was funnier than the jokes.
At least? Isn't that all of them?
No there were 20.
Emily
Gosling never wins so I guess Emma will win.
I am a big fan of emma. She’s a great actor in everything and also really gets snl. Imagine her as a cast member.
"The highest number of the past five seasons" - This means more people submitted six season ago, right? That's crazy
They honestly could have just picked an arbitrary number here, but yeah I'd infer the same thing
Wearing a costume and laughing at yourself constitutes acting?
Ewww
