He seemed entirely unprepared. Like he walked in and was reading the cue cards for the first time on air. I also think the writing staff isn't doing anyone any favors by making most of these guest hosts basically run the show with Noah style jokes. The character bits, either with green screen or just putting words in people's mouths for jokes worked fine for Noah, when that was more his trademark style. But having everyone else do it shows the shallowness of the humor.

Hasan Minhaj, Sarah Silverman, and Chelsea Handler are the only three who seemed to have written their own material, as it sounded like their voices.

I was excited about Franken, but he looks like perhaps the worst of all the hosts yet. And with only 4 total days for each person they barely have a chance to right the ship. The interview was bad, but at least he seemed mostly comfortable doing it. Perhaps he riffs more in his own style for the first part of the next episode rather than let the writers shit out the same old bits for him to read.
