Elon Musk (Mike Myers) interrupts a heated meeting with Donald Trump (James Austin Johnson), JD Vance (Bowen Yang), Marco Rubio (Marcello Hernández) and Ukraine President Zelensky (Mikey Day).I'll let the top comment on the video speak for me: "This was less chaotic and embarrassing than the real thing." That's even with Mike Myers playing Elon Musk as an Austin Powers villain crashing the meeting.
The satire of the event continued in Weekend Update: Trump Scolds Ukraine President Zelensky, Kisses Elon Musk's Feet in AI Video.
Weekend Update anchors Colin Jost and Michael Che tackle the week's biggest news, like a U.S. appeals court blocking a Biden-era student debt relief plan.That was a good summary of this week's "shock and awful" and "Elon Musk's...Chainsaw Massacre of our federal workforce."
Weekend Update covered even more ridiculous news in Couple Sits Next to Dead Body on Plane, Man Hides $10K Worth of Cocaine in Wig.
Weekend Update anchors Colin Jost and Michael Che tackle the week's biggest news, like Dunkin' Donuts announcing they will stop charging more for plant-based milk.The stories about the ceiling collapsing during a screening of Captain America: Brave New World and the CBS soap opera Beyond the Gates alone qualified this entry as the Sunday entertainment feature, but there was more movie content in The Movie Guy Shares His 2025 Oscars Predictions.
The Movie Guy (Marcello Hernández) stops by Weekend Update to discuss his predictions for the 2025 Oscars.No, it's not going to be Wicked winning Best Picture tonight. Maybe next year.
Weekend Update closed with Jane Wickline Gives Dating Advice.
Jane Wickline stops by Weekend Update to share some tips about wooing potential love interests.On the one hand, I'm recycling what I wrote in 'SNL' spoofs the VP debate in its cold open, the first time I saw Wickline sing: "Now I'm wondering if this song is eligible for Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics at next year's Emmy Awards. I'll have to wait until July to find out!" On the other, I don't think that's a good solution to the Trolley Problem if you want to favorably impress a potential romantic partner.
SNL was not done with making fun of the news, so I'm closing this entry with Mid-Day News 2.
Things go off the rails as anchors of a news channel (Shane Gillis, Kenan Thompson, Heidi Gardner, Ego Nwodim) cover the latest news.Listening to all that reminded me of Science confirms my opinion of life in the country: "I've lived out in exurbia and semi-rural areas for more than a decade. In that time, I've witnessed more crime and depravity there than in all my time in the city." I'm with Kenan and Ego on this one.
That concludes today's comedy entry, where my readers and I laugh at the news because it hurts too much to cray. Stay tuned for World Wildlife Day.
