Southwest Airlines,Pedro Pascal,Saturday Night Live Season 35

The actor returns for his third hosting stint, with 'Espresso' singer Sabrina Carpenter as musical guest

We did it, folks—another season of Saturday Night Live has officially come to an end, with some real highs and some woeful lows . And for this final edition—before that much-ballyhooed 50th season kicks off later this fall— Jake Gyllenhaal was back in Studio 8H for his third go at hosting, this time in promotion of his recent Road House remake for Prime Video and the upcoming Presumed Innocent miniseries for Apple TV+.

The most needless recurring sketch of the night: Sure, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it, yada yada yada, but if the show is going to bring back previously done concepts, we appreciate when there’s a new angle or twist to the bit. Alas, this week’s roast on Southwest Airlines is pretty much a copy-and-paste of that Spectrum-focused sketch from the Kieran Culkin edition back in season 47, though the Culkin version was spikier in humor and the Bowen Yang reveal at the end more hilariously dramatic.
