UK viewer here. I've watched the show on and off since the early nineties. Took me a while to get used to the putting on a show long sketch format. In the UK they try and make the sketch shows as fast as possible (mainly down to shorter running times). Cool episode with some great sketches.
The Hallmark Halloween one was cool and it's always great to see Christopher Walken. Nate Bargatze who I only just heard about (on the Spade/Carvey podcast) is pretty funny in a naturalistic style. Shows great promise.
Another reviewer was annoyed at the metric measurements sketch. That was funny stuff. We have exactly the same issues here and wait to you get the European variables on all sorts of measurements. I'm getting brain fuddled just thinking of Km and miles. Anyhow funny show and I'm glad it's still pushin through.
