Though there aren't any memorable sketches to set [Paul] Rudd's hosting gig apart from his others, there really aren't any clunkers, either. It's just in Rudd's genes: He is reliably funny.

Some of the episode was a great deal of fun, which is to be expected with Internet boyfriend and fourth-time host Paul Rudd leading the charge. Some of it was a reminder of just how inconsistent the season has been.

[Paul] Rudd was good as always and there weren't any real low points outside the cold open. But the only thing that really made it feel like a finale were the celebrity appearances. All told, it was a fitting end to a middling season.

Paul Rudd returns for his fourth time hosting the show, bringing the same unstoppable charm that's kept him on the big screen for three decades.
May 20, 2019
[Paul] Rudd was at his most Rudd: charming, silly, utterly committed to the bit. And while his commitment never flagged, the sketches he got were either warmed over hash, or sleepily mediocre.

Nothing special at all... which, unfortunately, kind of describes this season finale. It's not Paul Rudd's fault though, because Paul Rudd is a man who can make a spectacle out of something mundane like going on Conan.

The fact that the season went out with something of a whimper is a function of the show's creative DNA rather than a failure to sum up the narrative themes of the season.
May 20, 2019
While there were no emotional cast member farewells and surprisingly few celebrity cameos in the low-key season-ender, the show brought a few hilarious moments and one affecting Weekend Update appearance.

Paul Rudd returned to host, comparing the SNL monologue to a best man speech and delivering a short, sweet, somewhat non-sensical one about his history with the show, which somehow involved him working as a "vomit boy" at Studio 54 in the '70s.
May 20, 2019
[Paul] Rudd does his monologue as a Best Man's speech, and he accomplishes exactly what a Best Man speech should: It's a little funny, a little bit from the heart, it's short, and it stands out of the way for the main event.

In late middle age, SNL remains a work in progress, which I suppose is part of its infuriating charm.

While the lack of surprise guests, especially for a season finale, was a bit of a disappointment, the episode as a whole was still immensely satisfying.
