When Tom Hanks first appeared on Saturday Night Live as David S. Pumpkins, way back in October 2016, the character seemed to resonate with people worldwide. His additional appearances on SNL throughout last season were also beloved (probably).
So last night, in honor of Halloween 2017, SNL brought Pumpkins back in his very own Halloween special. And opinions were... mixed. While a fair few purveyors of Pumpkins enjoyed the special episode dedicated to SNL's very own "Halloween Santa", there was a LOT of criticism. Here are the most brutal social media reviews so far:
1. Am I the only one?
2. The 'Purge 4' plot outline.
3. When you just don't get it...
4. Would a David S. Pumpkins movie be so awful?
5. Can you ever have too much? Apparently.
6. Needs more Hanks.
7. They've "milked" it.
8. Hopes were dashed.
9. Any questions?
But, whatever. You can't please everyone. In my humble opinion, Tom Hanks is timeless.
