Pete Davidson let RuPaul turn him into the “future of drag” on this week’s episode of Saturday Night Live. Davidson reprised his trademark character, Chad (an oblivious idiot who agrees with almost everything), for the sketch. Like the ones that came before it, the episode’s host, in this case RuPaul, finds Chad’s naive demeanor interesting. […]
Justin Bieber returned to Saturday Night Live this week for the first time in seven years. And, thankfully for Beliebers, he didn’t disappoint.

The project follows 2015’s Purpose and will consist of 17 […]
SNL returns with host RuPaul and musical guest Justin Bieber. Following last weekend’s cold open of “The Trial You Wish Had Happened,” a spoof of President Donald Trump’s dry impeachment trial, SNL once again addresses the political landscape with their sketch on the recent Democratic debate.

It looks like Bill Cosby‘s publicist watched Eddie Murphy‘s return to Saturday Night Live. During his monologue, Murphy took aim at Cosby. “If you told me 30 years ago that I’d be this boring stay-at-home house dad and Bill Cosby would be in jail, even I wouldn’t have took that bet,” he said. Murphy continued by asking, “Who is America’s […]
Eddie Murphy‘s return to Saturday Night Live paid off well for NBC. According to the “fast official” Nielsen numbers ordered by NBC, last night’s episode had 9.921 million Live+Same Day viewers and pulled in a 2.5 rating among adults 18-49. Per Deadline, it was SNL‘s highest-rated episode in two-and-a-half years. The numbers should come as no surprise, considering it was the former-SNL […]
For the first time in more than 30 years, Eddie Murphy graced the Saturday Night Live. As many had hoped, Murphy brought back many of the classic characters he created during his time as an SNL cast member. Murphy started off by reviving Mr. Robinson, his classic Mr. Rogers spoof. Given the recent attention surrounding Fred Rogers, it seemed like […]
Like many Saturday Night Live alumni, Eddie Murphy says he returning to the show felt both familiar and a little unreal. “It’s like going back to your old high school or going back to college—’cause it’s the exact same system in place,” he said during a recent appearance on the The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. “It’s kind of surreal.” Known […]

For the parody, Johansson played the role of therapist to the divorcing couple, Kellyanne and George Conway, the president’s […]
