This week's episode of Saturday Night Live featured Drake as both the host and musical guest and it marked the debut of Sasheer Zamata, the first black female cast member since Maya Rudolph.

And the internet is deeming it "the blackest" episode ever.
Officially the blackest #SNL ever. Yes! Enjoy it folks.

SNL's diversity (or lack thereof) has been a hot topic on Twitter, and many tuned in to see how the show would go.
Some were a bit defensive from the beginning.
WHY THE BLACK CHICKS NAME GOTTA BE LAST?! oh. It's alphabetical. Right.

Lots of people found the episode funnier than it usually is, with some crediting the two new black female writers, LaKendra Tookes and Leslie Jones.
How can you tell there are black writers in the room? References to Family Matters in the iconic 90s sketch. #SNL

Watching SNL and laughing hysterically. 10 year old says "I don't get what's so funny". Exactly... Good. Some things shouldn't be understood

But not everyone was dazzled by SNL's additions and changes.
The writing is really bad. Really really bad. Otherwise @drake is a pretty good actor. #snl needs to start that internal fix ASAP

Overall though, the internet seemed proud of and happy with Zamata's first night.
Sasheer is gorgeous. That's basically my predominant thought about her so far. #SNL
