Kyle Mooney has been an SNL cast member since 2013, but it feels like James Austin Johnson has already appeared in more skits than him. I mean, we've seen glimpses of Kyle's comedic genius and style with stuff like The Fight or Inside SoCal, but it feels like he's been underutilized during his SNL tenure.
It wouldn't be the first time that SNL didn't recognize the talent they had in house. Look at a guy like Tim Robinson, who was only in the cast for a year, and what he's since accomplished with "I Think You Should Leave." It's only one of the most memeable shows of the last two years in a poll that I just made up. But steering wheels that don't fall off when you're driving, coffin flops, sloppy steaks, TC Tuggers, Baby of the Year contests, and Dan Flashes shirts are all in the public consciousness thanks to ITYSL. I don't like taking cheap shots at SNL, but at least 75% of ITYSL sketches are more memorable than anything SNL has made in a similar time frame in another made up poll. With its success, it's understandable why Netflix feels comfortable rolling the dice with another zany SNL cast member, and naturally, Kyle Mooney is the perfect fit. Two weeks ago, he announced his new project.
And today, Netflix dropped the trailer for "Saturday Morning All Star Hits!". The aesthetic screams 1990s and will have you feeling nostalgic for things you never experienced. I love how Kyle is playing both co-hosts. To paraphrase another SNL alum, "this looks AWESOME!"
"Saturday Morning All Star Hits!" debuts on Friday, December 10th. Might I suggest waiting until the following morning with a big bowl of Honey Combs to experience the full effect?
