Saturday Night Live recap: Michael B. Jordan takes a swing at a knock-out hosting debut

Strike! This week, a unionized group of post production workers at Saturday Night Live authorized a strike in an effort to expedite negotiations on their first contract, which they say has stalled in talks. This group, which unionized with the IATSE-affiliated Motion Picture Editors Guild last year, is responsible for post-production on pretaped sketches, like music videos and commercial parodies. The authorization has not yet become an actual strike, so it will be curious to see if the show relies on pretapes they have been keeping in their back pocket, or how episodes will be structured with this strike looming. But the show, as they say, must go on. This week's episode is hosted by Michael B. Jordan, who cut his teeth on TV before breaking out in Hollywood. Today he is the heir to the legendary Rocky franchise; Creed III, which he also directed, comes out in March.

I am joined tonight by former SNL cast member, Denny Dillon, who — similar to Jordan — has weaved between movies, traditional TV and HBO over the years. She is currently co-starring in M. Night Shyamalan's Servant, which airs on Apple TV and costars Lauren Ambrose (Six Feet Under).
