Melissa McCarthy proved once again why she’s a fantastic host – this was her sixth time! She consistently goes all-in on her comedy, creating memorable sketches. She’s great at taking funny situations and making them even more hilarious, and she populates them with a wonderfully quirky cast of characters – from lonely oddballs to sneaky, self-assured plotters. Even when she’s just being a more exaggerated version of herself, like in this episode’s opening monologue, she’s willing to throw herself into the bit – literally, over a piano – and even showcase surprising talents, like her impressive “mouth horn” playing (we’ll get to that!).
