1. So is Fred Armisen coming back to SNL to play Bloomberg? nt

4. I sure hope so, he's perfect for the role

Larry David and Jason Sudeikis keep coming back just to play Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden - and they're both perfect, too!

5. Everyone was hilarious!

Glad I can still laugh about this stuff...

11. Right?

I think they know how badly we need them right now. We've been taking some really harsh blows lately.

2. Wow, that was hysterical!

Funniest cold open in years! I actually laughed out loud.

3. Thanks Rihanna!

Yeah I misspelled!

These days we need all the laughs we can get!

8. The only Dem debates I've been able to stand! Thanks Rihanna.

[Larry David 'won'?]

9. I love that Larry David comes back to do this, too!

He's perfect for the role, LOL, and you can tell he's having great fun with it!

15. Larry David was on

a couple late night shows a couple weeks ago and on one of them he was asked about playing this role. His response was, "Well, it's gonna be a lot more work for me!" In context, he was talking about this new season of "Curb..." and he said he would probably be double timing. He sounded, to me, as if he was committed in some way. He is perfect for the role. Someone posted a video last night that was a five minute thing about how he gets in trouble on the campaign trail, and SNL thing. It was hilarious and brutal at the same time, totally worth watching for a good laugh.

17. . . . 'hilarious and brutal'. You nailed that one.

18. Did you know Bernie is related to Larry David?

10. Actually, better han I expected. When Wapo tweeted "Ds chaotic week"

I took it an anti-Ds skit. But it had plenty of good stuff - Bernie bros being my favorite. They did miss Steyer drooling over Burnie tho.

12. I expected something on the SOTU this week

But I'm guessing that Alec Baldwin wasn't available and this was just perfect with all the returning actors reprising their roles - I was particularly glad to see Larry David and Jason Sudeikis back, no one else could do it better!

14. That was great, thanks!

I really like Rachel Dratch, she did a spot on Amy K.
Her old Debbie Downer segments were too funny.

16. This was great!

Great cast! K&R
