That Show – Season 36

Nick dives into one of the most transitional—and underrated—seasons in SNL history: Season 36. With a powerhouse host lineup that included Paul Rudd, Emma Stone, and Bryan Cranston, and the debut of future standouts like Vanessa Bayer and Jay Pharoah, this season delivered both change and consistency. Nick shares behind-the-scenes stories and revisits standout sketches, from Jon Hamm’s return to the Vincent Price Halloween Special, to Jeff Bridges pulling pranks, and a hilarious Macy’s return bit featuring Jane Lynch and an uncanny Denzel Washington impression. Plus, Wayne and Garth came back, and the season featured two all-timer monologues from Amy Poehler and Justin Timberlake. [EP 126]
