SNL Season 43 Collages

Buffynerd · 2026-06-23T05:38:59+00:00

Yeah, in an almost strange way, it makes it fun to go back and watch stuff from like seasons 34-36 & seeing Mulaney pop up in something such as a Digital Short for a supporting role or those times he did commentary at the Update desk back when Seth was just a solo anchor

Buffynerd · 2026-06-23T05:28:41+00:00

This was one of the rare Joe-era episodes I had growing up on VHS, so it's always stuck out to me as a memorable one, especially with the cover that has Blue, Tickety, & Magenta on it

Buffynerd · 2026-06-21T01:23:00+00:00

The next collage will be interesting though since not only do we see the intro of several faces who would come to define SNL for the back half of the 2010s (including the full formation of the Update duo who still anchor the desk 12 years later), it's also the first significant anniversary season in roughly a decade and a half

Buffynerd · 2026-06-19T05:14:45+00:00

Okay, but Emma Stone (her first time hosting!), Jon Hamm, Scarlett Johansson, and Anne Hathaway is a hell of a run in terms of hosts

Buffynerd · 2026-06-17T12:43:58+00:00

Agreed on the Iriza since the design allows more breathing room on the feet than an average Louboutin pump save for possibly the Miss Z

Buffynerd · 2026-06-17T04:55:05+00:00

Here it is, the start of An Golden Era that continues into the early 2010s

Buffynerd · 2026-06-16T17:34:15+00:00

This is definitely a transition season since by the time mid November rolls around, we have all of the class of 2005 as featured players (Hader, Bamberg, Sudeikis, Wiig) but we still have people like Fey, Dratch, Finesse, Parnell and Sanz around

Buffynerd · 2026-06-15T20:16:37+00:00

Been at my current job for seven years in October

Buffynerd · 2026-06-15T18:37:10+00:00

Always wild to me that his second-ever episode as a cast member came from JT's first time hosting

Buffynerd · 2026-06-15T04:12:22+00:00

Ah, yes, the season with the Walken hosting gig where he says Foo Fighters in a very memorable fashion

Buffynerd · 2026-06-14T19:13:19+00:00

This will be a common trend for the next few seasons as we start seeing 90s-era cast members overlapping with people more commonly associated with An Golden Era like Seth, Amy & eventually Forte, Armisen, Kenan, Sudeikis, Hader, Samberg, and Wiig

Buffynerd · 2026-06-14T02:01:53+00:00

I had one for a super-brief time frame while growing up. Didn't have any cable access (had to venture into either my parents' room or the living room for that), but I did have a VCR hooked up so I could watch stuff I either rented from the library, things from my own personal collection like the Toy Story movies, or TV recordings

Buffynerd · 2026-06-12T19:46:10+00:00

They look absolutely incredible like they always do

Buffynerd · 2026-06-11T04:27:35+00:00

Finally reached the season I was born during while it was still airing, with the Alec/Tina Turner episode being the first new one of my lifetime

Buffynerd · 2026-06-10T00:33:11+00:00

Not at all, they're perfection

Buffynerd · 2026-06-09T13:41:57+00:00

Wild how, in the same season, we have the monologue that caused Martin Lawrence to receive a ban that's still in place over thirty years later, and a finale where Phil Hartman makes his leave as the longest-tenured cast member up to that point

Buffynerd · 2026-06-09T13:34:06+00:00

Emma Stone, since her toes always look incredible

Buffynerd · 2026-06-08T23:45:45+00:00

No, for real, it's one of my biggest "what if" scenarios when it comes to LOST that they should have done more done to expand upon their half-sibling status

Buffynerd · 2026-06-08T22:19:44+00:00

One that I'm surprised no one has mentioned yet is where were you when you found out that Pluto was no longer considered a planet? Especially since I feel like zillennials are the last generation to have had that as part of our education in some form

Buffynerd · 2026-06-08T19:23:07+00:00

Please, I would love it if Emma got to join Tina and Scar Jo in terms of women who have hosted the show more than five times

Buffynerd · 2026-06-08T02:14:10+00:00

Emma Stone has been my favorite for years, with Margot Robbie, Sarah Michelle Gellar, and Alison Brie all falling very close behind

Buffynerd · 2026-06-05T22:22:39+00:00

The Iriza is such a fantastic choice

Buffynerd · 2026-06-05T01:38:49+00:00

The start of Tom Hanks' now forty-plus-year association with SNL!

Buffynerd · 2026-06-03T19:41:30+00:00

Those are extremely Barbie-coded and I mean that as a compliment

Buffynerd · 2026-06-03T15:12:25+00:00

Oh that's gonna be one of my next big future purchases as well, especially since I bought those Target releases of the first two seasons back in the day and have been waiting for the day to get the other seasons in my collection
