This week’s “S.N.L.” featured cameos from two of its alumni, a workout for the network’s censors and the usual skewering of President Trump.There is little better to hold my attention.

There are many who did more good than evil.
The people who learned beyond what they were taught deserve
note and those who taught what they learned deserve celebration.
