Already from the start of this, I can tell this could be a “somber” cold opening, about how “we’re all in this together” and such. I sure hope it is a fakeout at the start. As that tone is so patronizing, out-of-touch with the rest of the country and just plain unfunny. I got a big laugh from the turn, after an intentionally-somber start about President-elect Trump’s return to the White House, with the revelation they’ve always been supportive of him. The lines from the cast are good, though the audience is not as much into the cold open as I expected. I am laughing though.
