I wasn't expecting much from Peter Sarsgaard. I just didn't picture him as an SNL host. He is a great actor, but comedy isn't what he's known for. That being said, he did so-so. It wasn't a spectacular episode but it did have some very funny moments.

Cold Open - Hooray for something different and by different I mean not a Hardball Sketch. Ok, well kind of different. Seth Myers is still alive and kicking as Anderson Cooper and the show opened with a 360° sketch where he welcomed Ray Nagin (Finesse), Darrell Hammond as Jesse Jackson, and Hillary Clinton (Poehler). It centered around Nagin's recent comments that New Orleans needs to be rebuilt as a "chocolate city." I have no idea what that means. The highlight was Jesse Jackson preaching about inclusiveness and claiming that New Orleans needs to have a variety of sweets such as Bavarian crème for the Asians, caramel for the Latinos, and tiramisu should any Italians show up. "...and the dessert cart rolls on!"
