Unsurprisingly, Walton Goggins killed it on SNL [1]

['Grant St. Clair']

Date: 2025-05-13

Mr. Goggins has had an excellent hot streak recently. From Tarantino to The Righteous Gemstones to Fallout to The White Lotus, he's made himself practically a household name and — much more importantly — saved the reputation of the receding hairline in the eyes of a grateful nation. It's his recent Saturday Night Live appearance that's really made me perk up, though. Much like Jon Hamm before him, Goggins has proven that just because you're a guy in your fifties doesn't mean you can't be hilarious. The highlight of the night had to be Tiny Baby Shoe, where a lost shoe in the park blossoms into an unlikely love*.

*For Walton, at least. What was a night of honestly just okay scripts was nonetheless elevated by the sheer commitment to the bit. After watching the night's sketches, I now personally subscribe to the belief that inexplicable gun-loving founding father Matt and Goggins' immortal cowboy in Fallout are one and the same, and will be viewing all of the upcoming second season through that lens.
