I finally got around to watching the Justin Timberlake-hosted Saturday Night Live and it was easily the funniest episode since the election. After fumbling through the season with unfunny sketches that leaned far too heavily on comic relief from Kristin Wiig and Bill Hader. And those guys can only do so much.

But Saturday’s episode was hilarious. Timberlake killed all his sketches and the writers event stepped up their game, putting out a hilarious opening with Will Forte as Tim Geithner and a great Weekend Update interlude with Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto.

Thankfully, it was the season finale so it doesn’t have to go back to sucking right away. They at least can run “best of” and top reruns during the summer.
