Saturday Night Live season in review

Since I didn't actually see too many episodes this season, I thought I'd just include the AV Club's review title for each episode, the original air date, and a letter grade (in bold, under each listing) assigned by their reviewer (Dennis Perkins) for each episode, and include this link for anyone that wants to access the full review of any of these episodes of SNL's 44th season:
