More fake news on the mid-blues. "Saturday Night Live" took to the air to mock conspiracy theories about election fraud after the parliamentary elections, using a parody of the Fox News show by conservative commentator Laura Ingraham.
In the skit, Kate McKinnon plays Ingraham, who comments, "Californian celebrities are moaning about tiny fires, while our heroic president is constantly attacked – by the rain."
Cecily Strong interpreted Fox News presenter Jeanine Pirro about what McKinnon's Inginn called "widespread electoral fraud that allowed Democrats to literally steal the election."
"Some people have claimed that suburban women have rebelled against the Republican Party – but is not it any more true that all Hispanics have voted twice?" Ingraham from McKinnon said. "You can not reject this idea simply because it's not true and seems insane."
Other "feelings" designed to please the stereotypes of the Fox News crowd followed, such as "Santa is the father of Jesus", "blackface is a compliment" and "If the Earth is so hot, why are my feet so cold? "
Strong's Pirro gave examples of which one person could mimic many people – retaining "Nutty Professor II: The Klumps" of Eddie Murphy – and a "considerable increase in what people call". stacking, where several children will stack on top of each other, under a coat and then vote in adulthood ".
The skit also contained parodic commercials on the fake-Fox show, including a fashion catheter company, the manufacturer of dog baptism kits and a "white only" egg brand – "this are only egg whites, and this is only for us ". (A parody of a derisive "god of the vape" segment of real life has also appeared.)
"SNL" was hosted by Steve Carell, the patron of the famous show "The Office", which took over the animation for the third time.
He began his monologue by trying to talk about the movies he was in since his role on television. It was interrupted by former cast members Ed Helms, Jenna Fischer and Ellie Kemper, who begged Carell to accept a restart of the program.
"Do you remember the last words that Pam secretly whispered to Michael as she was leaving for Denver?" Fischer, who played Pam in the series, asked.
Fischer replied, "She said," Steve, do not be a d-k, do the reboot. "
The crowd applauded the suggestion and Carell brought the actors on stage. But the fans who were expecting a new series to miss: he said instead: "I am proud to announce, officially, that … we have an excellent show tonight!" (The group played the theme of the show).
Carell hosted "Saturday Night Live" in 2005 and 2008. The musical guest Saturday was Ella Mai.
