‘Merry Maybe Our Last Christmas To All’: SNL Mocks Greta Thunberg In Hilarious Skit
The Daily Wire ^ | DECEMBER 15TH, 2019 | Joseph Curl

“Saturday Night Live” usually targets only conservatives, but the hyper liberal show has been taking aim at liberals lately, too.

In its latest show on Saturday, SNL slapped around climate alarmist Greta Thunberg, played by Kate McKinnon.

“The elves will drown,” a dour Greta declares at one point, referencing a melting North Pole.

The cold open began with Aidy Bryant, dressed as Sam the Snowman from the “Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer” cartoon, saying families in America are more divided politically than ever. “But if we listen in to some dinner conversations tonight, I bet we’d find out we have more in common than we realize,” the snowman says. “And now we can listen because I hacked into three Nest home cams.”

After listening in on three families, McKinnon’s Thunberg appears to deliver her “Christmas message.”

“In 10 years, this snowman won’t exist,” she says. “Her home will be a puddle. Santa, reindeer, the North Pole — all of it gone. The ice caps will melt and the elves will drown.”

“Greta!” the snowman shouts.

“What? You said keep it light,” Greta says. “So Merry maybe our last Christmas to all.”

“And, Donald Trump –- step to me and I’ll come at you like a plastic straw comes to a turtle,” she says, adding, “I can’t believe I’m saying this to a 70-year-old man but grow up!”

The sketch featured some other surprisingly non-liberal stuff, like one character admitting that President Trump is “definitely getting re-elected.”

Cast member Kenan Thompson, playing a father of a family in Atlanta, says he plans to skip dining room table subjects like impeachment, preferring to talk about the new movie “Bad Boys III.”

“Hilarious” and “SNL” are two concepts which have not been used in the same sentence in the last 20 years.

In before the inevitable dorks who need to bore us about how SNL “hasn’t been funny since Belushi days”. Yawn.

Cold Open for SNL 1991. Clarence Thomas hearings.

Pretty darn funny.

Woody Harrelson as Biden was pretty funny. Larry David as Bernie was good too.

The skit had a couple laughs, all a big setup to once again whine about the electoral college. It was miles away from hilarious.

The Greta bit was tacked on at the end. Their audience didn't think it was mocking, they thought it was a public service announcement.

Too late. I haven’t bothered to watch SNL since at least the early to mid 90s....the last time it was actually funny.

They had a good run from the late 80s through the mid 90s with Chris Rock, Chris Farley, Phil Hartman, Mike Myers, Dana Carvey, Adam Sandler, John Lovitz, etc. Notice how many of those had success outside of SNL.

Look at their casts since then. Notice how few of them had success in anything else.

Maybe they saw the British election result and have shitted themselves with the realisation that if they don’t go after the cranks on their side, they will keep losing.

Kate McKinnon is in the movie about Fox news Roger Ailes. She is 1 of 2 fictional characters and of course she is a lesbian. I read that she beds a Fox news employee as well.

Good point! Plus, why they pay Michael Che to be on there is a mystery to me.
