Jim Gaffigan joined Maya Rudolph in the season premiere cold open as the affable Minnesota Governor and Harris’ running mate, while Andy Samberg appeared as the Second Gentleman. Also, Dana Carvey debuted his Joe Biden impression on “SNL.”
“SNL” cast member James Austin Johnson returned as Donald Trump, and Bowen Yang stepped in as his running mate, JD Vance.
Carvey is just sad. Hasn’t really been funny since Church Lady.
The rest were great.
It’s a little too on the nose for me that an old snl actor known for his spoof of a Republican president is now doing Biden
By that logic, Bernie and Trump are the same person I guess.
One impressionist mitating two different people has nothing to do with political leaning. That’s an insane statement. It’s literally their job to be able to imitate a variety of different types people.
by that logic ☝️🤓
Nothing personnel mane… my comment had nothin to do with dana carvey’s politics. He’s an actor. Why don’t you sit on down and smoke a bowl with ol tom?
Neither does mine.
passes the doob
Is this your version of “it’s just a joke”? Make ridiculous false-equivalencies and then act like a “harmless” stoner when you’re called out on it?
More for me
What even is your point?
I’m I the only one that watched comedy shows to escape the political nonsense?
I do not want to watch more shit about it. Gross.
It’s literally starting its FIFTIETH season of political satire being a significant part of the show. Are you not smart enough to factor genre into what you watch? Do you think it makes you look like you have a reasonable thought process when you expect a show to suddenly diverge from its decades-long format?
Then don’t watch snl, dumbass.
Their could open is almost always and HAS almost always been political
Why does it feel like you’re making this comment without every having heard of Saturday Night Live before?
Rudolph did a great job, she really had the Cadence down I thought. Gaffigan not so much, just kind of felt lazy.
I forgot SNL existed again. Does anyone still watch this?
People have been saying that since season 2. You’re not clever.
Hit a nerve…
No. They’re just saying stupid shit.
It’s true though, SNL isn’t funny.
What’s funny is how hexbear morons always come in groups. You guys can never think for yourselves.
We see the same threads as you. It’s how federation works. I can’t in good conscience see SNL being mocked and not get involved.
Sorry that this unthinking moron has upset you. You should be able to browse the internet without seeing SNL being disparaged and I’ve ruined that for you.
My deepest, deepest apologies. Perhaps you could petition the .ee mods to defederate from us, protecting your sensibilities in future.
Hit a nerve… lmao
Generic. Contrarian. Troll harder.

“SNL” cast member James Austin Johnson returned as Donald Trump,
It would be far more entertaining if they just had women and minorities play Trump by wearing a wig and just using out of context lines from his speeches when he talks. It doesn’t need to fit whatever is happening, since his actual ramblings don’t have much to do with what is going on at the time. Ph, and in the their own speaking voice, not even trying to sound like him.
Plus it would be funny to see who breaks when whoever is playing him that week struggles with the word salad.
Bonus points: The actor playing trump isn’t told their lines and just has to read whatever nonsense on the queue card
