Episode 111 - Connor Storrie (Season 51)

SNL is back! After nearly a month away for the Winter Olympics, Brad, Nate, and Ben reunite to break down the February 28, 2026, episode of Saturday Night Live — the 1,001st episode in the show's history — hosted by Heated Rivalry breakout star Connor Storrie, with musical guest Mumford & Sons.Storrie arrived at Studio 8H fresh off one of the most buzzed-about TV performances in recent memory, playing closeted Russian hockey player Ilya Rozanov on the HBO Max/Crave hit Heated Rivalry. The timing couldn't have been better: both the U.S. men's and women's hockey teams had just won gold at the 2026 Winter Olympics, and the show pulled in Jack Hughes, Quinn Hughes, Hilary Knight, and Megan Keller for a monologue that had the crowd losing their minds. Oh, and Heated Rivalry co-star Hudson Williams showed up for a surprise appearance mid-episode, with... too much screaming?! You decide.The guys go sketch-by-sketch through the night, rating everything from a topical Iran War cold open to a very injured stripper, and debate whether Storrie is one of the best first-time hosts in recent memory. Plus: the Bradometer returns, Weekend Update gets the full breakdown, and the guys crown their MVP and Sketch of the Night.Sketches from This EpisodeCold Open – Trump's Iran War Address (James Austin Johnson as Trump, Colin Jost as Pete Hegseth)Monologue – Connor Storrie, with cameos from Jack Hughes, Quinn Hughes, Hilary Knight & Megan KellerMath Quiz – Mr. Fronzi (Marcello Hernández) and his classThe Gentlemen's Code – A 19th-century glove-slapping escalation (Storrie, Mikey Day)Ice Skating – A proposal goes sideways at Rockefeller Plaza, featuring surprise guest Hudson WilliamsMath Tutor – Jock meets stalker-y tutor Dirkus (Ben Marshall) and his equally odd parents (Ashley Padilla, James Austin Johnson)Weekend Update – Colin Jost & Michael Che on the Iran war; featuring:Leg Lengthening – Griff's illegal European surgery (Marcello Hernández on stilts, Storrie with tiny little legs)Office Morale – A colleague pitches a company-wide office dance (Mikey Day, Storrie, and an awkward Mumford & Sons cameo)Stripper – Serj, the exotic dancer, shows up to a Vegas bachelorette party after being "hit by a little car" (Storrie, Ashley Padilla, Sarah Sherman, Veronika Slowikowska, Jane Wickline)Cut for Time (on YouTube)Car Song – Veronika Slowikowska and Jane Wickline lament the rideshare door handle; Storrie plays the inventor of all the confusing onesThe National Workforce of Rethinking Disabilities – Canceled celebrities (Armie Hammer, Jill Zarin, Louis C.K., Kanye West, Bill Cosby, and Michael Che as himself) all blame their misdeeds on Tourette's*Tell us your MVP and Sketch of the Night in the comments!
