Maya & Marty (2016)

Do Not Compare This to SNL
15 July 2016
This 62 year old white male liked this show. I thought the writing was creative and far superior to most of the SNL shows from the previous calendar year.

Not every joke hits. That's a given. It's Martin Short and Maya Rudolph (Minnie Riperton). But there were some very creative bits that have never been done before.

And the guest stars they got was unimaginable. Steve Martin, Emma Stone, Nathan Lane, Tom Hanks, etc.

Sean Hayes as the 1940's gay detective, filmed in B/W was great.

The days where America sits down to watch a 60 minute show together are gone. But there was some brilliant comedy in this 360 minute series.

I don't know if they could make it last in a second season. But I truly enjoyed it. Thank you Mikey, Maya, Martin, and Kenan.

I ask everyone, what if SNL had these guest stars and cast every week?
