"So I just wanna remind the jury, that's not what this case is about " 😂😂😂😂 man that caught me off guard.

Adam Driver, like Pedro Pascal, should do an episode every season. They make every sketch work, which is rare nowadays.

I can't even begin to count the number of guests on SNL who are so obviously reading off of the cue cards but Adam Driver doesn't. He brings it 100% like a pro. It's obvious that he takes it seriously and he is well prepared for his skits. He prepares for SNL the same way he would prepare for a multi million dollar movie. Respect.

Let's take a minute to appreciate how Adam is ACTING here. I've never seen such a great performance on SNL.

Some of the best acting in SNL .. Adam Driver is just fantastic. Also a great sketch and great writing!

[jasonflay]

The silence in the audience during his soliloquy is deafening. The audience was transfixed. That's what makes this sketch go from a banal, silly thing to pure excellence.

Adam isn't reading his lines, he seems to just know them. This guy is a real actor.

“There were gonna be hella dogs there.” 😂

Kenan is SOOOO deadpan and hilarious, always holding back a smirk or snicker.

adam driver didn’t need to flex his Juilliard chops this hard, but the man can’t help himself. fucking amazing acting.

Adam Driver is such a good actor, I was so enthralled by the monologue that I forgot that this is a comedy show and the twist punched me in the gut lmao.

[IvyGrass]

My god I knew this was an SNL sketch but Adams delivery nearly convinced me I clicked the wrong link and I was on court TV 😂

Adam Driver is one of the best SNL hosts. His skit on Medieval Times still makes me laugh so hard I can't breathe.

What makes this sketch so great is the length of time it took for the punchline to come that turned it all on its head, JAJ's excellent facial expressions, and the mess-up with Kenan as judge proclaiming that the jury had come back a little too early; it's endearing, adds to the sketch and I think only he has the ability to inhabit a character that is able to carry such a situation!

[HeyJustMe]

The best actors can adapt to any genre. Adam is absolutely iconic. And soooo funny! ❤

[ndRatePetronius]

I wish this was on the broadcast. Adam Driver is so good in the closing arguments that I was getting a little emotional, then that crazy twist had me rolling. Exceptional work all around.

[ArkaidDeims]

I wanna see a full blown feature comedy film starring Adam Driver <3

[laurenw.]

"I hope you fry" 😂💖The dogs at the end were adorable, I love it!

[CaseyReads]

Adam Driver is one of the best SNL hosts because he gives it 100% every time!!

Now that's what I'm talkin' bout, some old school SNL right there! Awesome.
