Cameron Diaz returned to host Saturday Night Live for the first time in nine years with musical guests Bruno Mars and Mark Ronson, but it was it was just over a minute of commentary from Michael Che that stole the whole episode during Weekend Update.
A few people have already cracked jokes about the Bill Cosby rape scandal, but it was Che who got to the point that many people are struggling with: Bill Cosby versus The Cosby Show's Cliff Huxtable. They're not the same guy! Also, he kicked it off by telling Cosby, who has for years been lecturing black men to "pull your damn pants up," to "pull YOUR damn pants up, Bill Cosby." Yes.
Here are the other highlights, of a so-so week.
BACK HOME BALLERS
2.
The first Thanksgiving sketch of the year! This one was starting to lose a little steam, but when Leslie Jones comes in with a new beat to rhyme about her mom's love of putting out bowls of things, I lost it. Plus Aidy Bryant aka Lil' Baby Aidy (read the chain) awkwardly backing away from her mom's neighbor Jan was perfect.
SCHOOL HOUSE ROCK
3.
Parodies of this classic School House Rock segment have been done to death, but Kenan Thompson as the bill repeatedly getting shoved down the steps of the Capitol by Jay Pharoah's Obama is gold. "My legs! They were made of paper!"
NEW ANNIE
4.
Of course there was going to be an Annie sketch, but Jones as a 43-year-old orphan who can "palm a pumpkin" ensured it was going to be a good one.
