'SNL' lampoons the Fox News interview of Kamala Harris in its cold open

It's Wester, but I'm postponing my observance until tomorrow because it's election season. Today, I'm sharing another highlights post of last night's Saturday Night Live beginning, like the show, with Fox News Kamala Harris Interview Cold Open.

Bret Baier (Alec Baldwin) welcomes Kamala Harris (Maya Rudolph) for an interview on Fox News.

Also starring James Austin Johnson as Donald Trump, Ego Nwodim as the Fox News host of the women's town hall, Dana Carvey as Joe Biden, and Marcello Hernandez as the audience member at the Univision town hall. This sketch captured both Baier's obnoxious interviewing tactics and the contrast between Kamala Harris's seriousness and convicted criminal Donald Trump's silliness, which featured prominently in Weekend Update: Trump Dances for 40 Minutes Straight at Campaign Rally.

Weekend Update anchors Colin Jost and Michael Che tackle the week's biggest news, like Kamala Harris calling out Donald Trump for gaslighting Americans about January 6.

Trump telling his rally audience "Get that fat pig off the couch. Tell him to vote for Trump. He's going to save our country," reminds me of what I wrote in George Santos sues Jimmy Kimmel and Trump sells sneakers, that "he has long had a very bad case of 'L'État, c'est moi.' As far as he's concerned, he is the country." That's probably was why he called January 6, 2021 "a day of love." It was, for him, not for the country or anyone else. As for Trump working the fryer at McDonald's, I can say it's tougher than he thinks it is, because I worked in fast food while going to UCLA, first at Jack-in-the-Box, then at Wendy's. To repeat what I wrote in 'SNL' tries to turn a week of unfunny news into comedy and gets saved by Adam Driver and Olivia Rodrigo, "[he] should see what it's like from the other side of the counter!"

Continuing with the election theme, I'm shuffling the order of segments by embedding Weekend Update: Emil Wakim on Voting in the 2024 Election next.

Emil Wakim stops by Weekend Update to discuss voting in the 2024 election as a young person.

Emil is very funny, but he's not kidding about the reaction many Americans have to finding out he's Christian.

Follow over the jump for more clips from last night's episode.

Now for clips that qualify this entry as the Sunday entertainment feature, beginning with Weekend Update: Bath and Body Works Pulls Offensive Candles From the Shelves.

Weekend Update anchors Colin Jost and Michael Che tackle the week's biggest news, like Tom Brady becoming part-owner of the Las Vegas Raiders.

Never forget that sports is entertainment. So, in some way, is fashion, which is the subject of Sarah Sherman on the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.

Sarah Sherman stops by Weekend Update to discuss the return of the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.

LOL, a plate tectonics joke! I didn't think I'd see science in the middle of this segment!

There was one more interview on last night's Weekend Update, but I'm saving that for an all-Halloween entry. Instead, I'm closing with Michael Keaton Monologue to continue the entertainment theme.

Fourth-time host Michael Keaton talks about working on Mister Rogers' Neighborhood and starring in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.

I was wondering where Andy Samberg's Doug Emhoff was. Good thing he got to play Beetlejuice instead.

That's a wrap for today's highlights post. Now stay tuned for a late Wester.
