“SNL UK” managed to feel very much like its parent show — which is to say, some of it worked well and some of it worked less well, but very little of it didn’t work at all. There were sketches that ran too long, or ended weakly, but were generally redeemed by a young(ish), confident 11-member cast that made the most of them. .... Why not 10 [episodes]?

With a tried-and-true formula, SNL UK‘s cast most likely will find their voices and establish themselves as a separate entity, albeit with the same plusses and minuses that the American show has. Some sketches and performances will become legendary; but most, forgettable. Unless SNL UK can break out of this formula and determine what makes them special, the show may never match the heights of Monty Python, or even the Canadian alternatives from SCTV through Kids in the Hall.

Most of the flaws in the premiere were, in fact, entirely part of the SNL DNA. .... There were no disasters, though, which can’t always be said for episodes of traditional-flavor Saturday Night Live. .... For me, the cast was good enough that I’ll watch the next few weeks, if only to justify facile jokes about how it USED to be funny.
