This inaugural test run may have been a failure, but it's certainly not a death wish. All eyes will most likely be on Che as the season continues.

It was a good opener, sporadically very good.

Toward the end of "Weekend Update," Pete Davidson, the latest addition to the cast, and the youngest - he's the first SNL'er born in the '90s - showed up. The material was great.
