    Saturday Night Live used its cold open to raise funds for the war effort - only it was Donald Trump, portrayed by James Austin Johnson, manning the phones in support of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, serenading the dictator with 'I love you, Vlad.' Laura Ingraham, played by Kate McKinnon, and Tucker Carlson, played by Beck Bennett, hosted the 'FOX News Ukrainian Invasion Special' for the 'babies' - 'the sugar babies of Russian oligarchs.' 'Who will pour vodka in their mouths? So many horny mouths to feed,' McKinnon said. 'So many horny mouths to feed.'

    The 78-year-old comedian finally addressed claims that he was very difficult to work with on the sets of “Saturday Night Live” and the TV series “Community.” In an interview with “CBS Sunday Morning,” Chase explained how it didn’t bother him when he heard that his former co-stars had bad experiences working with him. “I guess you’d have to ask them. I don’t give a crap!” he laughed. “I am who I am. And I like where — who I am. I don’t care,” he continued. “And it’s part of me that I don’t care. And I’ve thought about that a...

    Remember that accident involving a truck full of lab monkeys the other day? It seems that a good Samaritan who stopped to help is now sick. As the Instapundit said “It sounds like every sci-fi virus film ever made.” But let’s not start another wild conspiracy theory that will turn out to be true in 6 months. It’s probably nothing.It’s probably just me and my slow-moving COVID brain, but every time I see anything about this monkey story all I can think about is Michael Myers and the Sprockets.Sprockets was a recurring comedy sketch from the NBC television series Saturday...

    The King of Staten Island visited his castle. Pete Davidson was seen at the St. George Ferry Terminal on Friday, admiring the decommissioned Staten Island Ferry he and “SNL” co-star Colin Jost bought this week at auction. Video obtained exclusively by The Post shows the Staten Island native beaming through sunglasses at the new purchase from a pier jutting out into New York Bay. “It’s crazy,” Davidson said. “We used to take that ferry to do stand-up, all the time.”

    Saturday night may not be so live from New York this week. The Post has learned that “Saturday Night Live” was on the verge of canceling tonight’s final episode of the iconic sketch show’s 2021 season due to an in-house outbreak of positive COVID-19 cases. A set insider has revealed that “four actors” have tested positive for coronavirus — and “three others” have called out because they are now “fearful” about coming to NBC Studios at 30 Rockefeller Center, where the weekly sketch show is filmed in Midtown. Another insider claimed that executive producer Lorne Michaels had tested positive, adding...

    The cast of Saturday Night Live kicked off the yuletide season by performing a disgusting skit called “Hip Hop Nativity.” It was provocative, it was sacrilegious and it was revolting. But maybe the greatest sin of all is that the comedy sketch was just not funny. Baby Jesus twerked while Mother Mary twirled on a stripper pole and “Baby Daddy” Joseph did a “pimp walk.” “Hip hop is down here,” one of the low-rent actresses said. “The streets are in the knees. Pimp walk. It’s Christmas y’all.” Baby J is shaking like a rattle, another actress said. “Praise him. Praise...

    The Hill ^ | Nov 8 | By Adam Barnes |
    Former President Trump baselessly claimed on a podcast last week that the tragic incident on the set of “Rust” involving actor Alec Baldwin and cinematographer Halyna Hutchins might have been intentional. Baldwin fatally shot Hutchins in October when he fired a prop gun containing a live round. Authorities are investigating the matter, but no charges have been filed so far. The 63-year-old actor has said he is “fully cooperating” with the investigation. Trump, who admitted he does not know the actor, told conservative podcast host Chris Stigall he believed it was strange that Baldwin would point a gun at a...

    I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area and spent most of my life in heavily Democrat enclaves. That is why I know that, when you boil things down to their essentials, most Democrat women and many Democrat men are single-issue voters and that issue is abortion. You can delicately bring them around to agree with you on subjects such as taxes, borders, national security, and keeping porn out of grade schools but abortion is, as Nancy Pelosi said, “sacred ground.” That’s why they’re panicked about the Texas abortion law and why Saturday Night Live did the single most...

    Meghan McCain says in a new interview that sketches performed on "Saturday Night Live" mocking her during her stint on ABC's "The View" made her feel like she was "the laughing stock of the country." "I think partly 'Saturday Night Live' parodies have this way of becoming reality. I’ve seen it so many times with Sarah Palin, Hillary Clinton. The stereotypes of who you are become true. Bush being an idiot. I still think Alex Trebek is someone who celebrities hated. Sometimes the parody is the person, and I think that probably played a factor, too," McCain said during a...

SNL saw similar drops when the ratings were broken down by demographic.

    Comedian Horatio Sanz allegedly groomed and sexually assaulted an underage superfan at a "Saturday Night Live" party — as cast members looked the other way, the woman claims in a lawsuit filed Thursday. The unnamed Pennsylvania teen, who was 17 at the time, was running an "SNL" fan site in May 2002 when Sanz allegedly took her on a limo ride then "digitally penetrated her genitals" at a post-show bash, according to the lawsuit, filed in Manhattan Supreme Court. The girl first met Sanz at age 15 — when he was 31 years old — in 2000 after he invited...
