Singularly uneventful....

Utterly boring. The hosts brought no humour to the event. The presence of the two actors on the side eating salads and pizza was quite disturbing and pointless. Not at all funny. For some inexplicable reason, almost every facet of the show was obsessed with issues concerning race.

Great show if you're suffering from insomnia

This was as boring as could be. The opening number was dreadful and unfunny. The wit that makes Colin Jost and Michael Che entertaining on SNL was completely lost here. And what was up with this new format? Let's announce the nominees first, then introduce who is presenting the award, have them banter and then announce the winner. By that time, you've forgotten who was nominated in the first place. And all the SNL actors were just not funny here.

Quotes
Himself - Winner: Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series: Oh, my God. Okay. I only have 37 seconds. I wrote this 43 years ago. All right. Can I just say Skip Brittenham said to me a few years ago, "If you stay at the table long enough, the chips come to you." And tonight I got to clear the table. If you get a chance to work with Bill Hader or Alec Berg, run. Don't walk. Thank you for producing us, for creating us, for directing us, and for Bill for acting with us and all of our wonderful writers. Sherry Thompson and a wonderful Sheri Goldberg, an extraordinary publicist, Cliff and Aaron and Chris, who represent me. Almost for the first time I feel represented. I can't stop yet. My wife Stacey. Oh, my God, my cast and crew and the kids. Kids: Jed, Zoe, and Max, you can go to bed now. Daddy won.
