Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Taylor Swift Ratings & Reviews
Rolling Stone
Ryan McGee
For her part, Waller-Bridge didn't overpower the cast so much as simply blend in with the ensemble. As someone who possesses a titanic amount of energy and charisma , this was definitely a choice versus an inability to rise to the occasion.
Vanity Fair
Jordan Hoffman
The presence of Waller-Bridge, author of the year's Emmy-certified best comedy, only served to highlight the material that wasn't up to her level.
Slashfilm
Ethan Anderton
This episode was an improvement over the average season premiere... SNL might really be on the verge of hitting a new groove.
indieWire
LaToya Ferguson
Waller-Bridge showed off her talent for wringing humor from the unlikeliest of places, as she does during a hilarious tangent about genitals, setting a high bar for the rest of the episode to clear, which it does.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Matthew Love
Because of her impeccable timing and her supple relationship to both camera and live audiences, it was less a question of whether she'd do well as SNL host, but rather how well. And Waller-Bridge did not disappoint.
Guardian
Zach Vasquez
A surprisingly middle-of-the-road entry for Saturday Night Live.
Decider
Larry Getlen
After last week's laugh-free debacle of a season opener, Saturday Night Live began hitting its stride this week with several sketches that featured genuine laughs and even took some chances.
TV Line
Ryan Schwartz
Waller-Bridge did a fine job as host (and was especially charming during her opening monologue), but she wasn't given much of a showcase.,, Perhaps most notable is that it was another strong week for Bowen Yang
Pajiba
Dustin Rowles
It's better than it has any right to be, largely thanks to Phoebe... Bowen Yang makes his debut on "Update" as a Chinese trade representative, and he's great (the segment is "OK").
Daily Telegraph (UK)
Isabel Mohan
We have a feeling this won't be PWB's last appearance on SNL - she aced it.
AV Club
Dennis Perkins
Look, SNL tried to pigeonhole Phoebe... But Waller-Bridge seemed to relish the chance to have fun, while anchoring even the flimsiest premises with the expected cheeky aplomb.
Entertainment Weekly
Andy Hoglund
Oh, wow, Bowen Yang gets to debut on Update! As the top Chinese trade representative, Yang is hilarious. "I'm basically the Lizzo of China right now!" He's certainly getting off on the right foot.
