Miles Teller Shines in SNL Cold Open Featuring NYC Mayoral Debate and Political Parodies

TL;DR Summary
The episode of Saturday Night Live hosted by Miles Teller was marked by a lack of a strong central personality, with many sketches feeling recycled or underwhelming, though some cast members like Dismukes and Padilla delivered notable performances. The show struggled with its usual sharpness, relying on familiar material and featuring a weak opening sketch, but had moments of promise, especially in the Weekend Update segment and performances by newer cast members.
