Check out the three must-see sketches from Harry Styles' episode of 'Saturday Night Live,' including his cheeky monologue
That was this episode in a nutshell. Nevertheless, some segments did truly work start to finish. Let’s see what people will be talking about until Will Ferrell returns to host next Saturday.Equal parts Steven Wright, Zach Galifianakis, Eddie Izzard, and that kid who always got the lead in your high school plays but you couldn’t begrudge him because, come on, he deserved it, this monologue confirmed Styles’ innate comedic dryness, timing and confidence.
He could just wink for seven minutes and earn peals of applause, but instead he goes for a cheeky deconstruction that wouldn’t have been amiss in a Norm MacDonald “Weekend Update” segment. As with his musical choices, it’s great to see Styles refuse to coast on what made him popular, taking some risks with the fame afforded him. He insists that he’s using the monologue to confirm his status as a “serious musician,” but afraid at any moment to show that he’s not actually playing the piano.
cartoon. Styles as Doug, Joan’s adopted Chihuahua, has a fantastic over-the-top delivery that pairs well with Aidy Bryant’s adulation. “I love you just the way you am” is another line that has no right to be as funny as it is, but Styles’ commitment to the bit makes it sing. It’s also a great nod to the fact that everything Doug says is filtered through Joan’s imagination, so naturally he inherits her lack of skill when it comes to coherent musical rhyme schemes.
Season 45, but what makes it linger is Joan awarding Doug “Best In Show” in the sketch’s final moments. With that, the segment turns away from being about a sad woman who fantasizes about dating her dog into a celebration of how that animal helped her fill an emotional void at a difficult moment in her life. It’s something many pet owners will instantly recognize, and while it’s supremely cheesy, it’s also wondrously effective and affecting.
