    Watching an SNL monologue usually feels like a very famous person in front of a lot of people standing in pretty much the same spot telling jokes at their own expense (which is fine and i enjoy it). But Adam Driver's monologue here is a way different feel, like you're at your tiny high school drama club after school one of the charismatic kids in the club is screwing around on the stage during a mic check and improvising and cracking everyone up. Love Adam Driver's energy, honestly.

      Agree completely. I don't remember all of them but this has to be one of SNL's best-ever opening monologues.

      When he was 19, he tried the whole move to Hollywood penniless to try and make it as an actor. After failing miserably with that, and having to move back home (embarrassed from his failure, and with no direction or plans for his life) he decided to join the Marines along with many of his high school buddies. He fell in love with it, and made many friends due to the camaraderie. But before he was to be shipped off to Afghanistan, he suffered injuries which not only kept him from going, but was also discharged from the Marines entirely. Feeling guilty being left behind while his friends went to risk their lives, he returned home. It was then that he decided to try acting again, and this time he got into Julliard.
      I highly recommend watching his Ted talk about how being a Marine helped him become a better actor. It's not too long, and he's a great storyteller. If you enjoy Adam Driver, you'll enjoy this too!

    If you actually watched, he was legit trying to kill time *and it worked.* They didn’t have time to do the last skit. It was 12:56 on Halsey’s second performance. It went off at 1:01.

    GIVING ADAM DRIVER FREETIME WAS THE BEST THING SNL HAD EVER DONE!! What a way to open up 2020! He is a comical free spirit that is hilarious when dosile and alone. He is the man and he is funny. Adam Driver, you are the man!

      @@ZesPak Fuck yes, the movie was great and he was an amazing supporting role. One of the best I've ever seen, solid, straight forward, got the job done and got his money. Calm, serious, smart and satisfying. Not canny or over dramatic, raw and authentic. Just too good to touch and refreshing as hell.
