This week’s episode covers a variety of topics, including the feud between Texas Senator Ted Cruz and the “Sesame Street” character Big Bird, Steve Bannon, and Kyle Rittenhouse.
This episode is hosted by actor Jonathan Majors and starred by musical guest Taylor Swift.
In addition to the attack on Cruz, the “Weekend Update” also involved some controversial topics, and Swift lent her singing voice to a lively parody music video.
Check out some of the famous sketches from the sixth episode of season 47 of “SNL”.
Cold open
The NBC comedy skit show kicked off that night, reigniting the feud between Cruz and the big bird in “Sesame Street”. The former Republican presidential candidate recently attacked children’s acting roles after encouraging their children to be vaccinated against COVID-19.
Played by Cruz “SNL” Actor Aidy Bryant introduced his new show “Cruz Street” and its residents. Bryant explained that after watching “Sesame Street” teach children “dangerous ideas, such as numbers and kindness”, it is important to start the show.
“When Big Bird told the children to’vaccinate against a deadly disease’, I said,’Enough’, and then I created my own’Sesame Street’ called’Cruz Street’,” Bryant said. “This is a gated community. Children are not affected by the world government.”
The Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, played by Cecily Strong, also stopped to take the AR-15 to Cruz Street and gave the children a chance to hold it. Other residents include podcast Joe Logan, lazy Oscar and Britney Spears.
Weekend update
In the “Weekend Update”, co-anchor Colin Jost (Colin Jost) reflected on Bannon’s prosecution for contempt of Congress after failing to attend testimony in the investigation of the Capitol riots on January 6.
Yost revealed that Bannon, a former adviser to President Trump, could face up to two years in prison. “In his opinion, this may be life imprisonment,” he said.
Co-anchor Michael Che then discussed the moment Rittenhouse started crying during his testimony during his trial. The 18-year-old defendant faces multiple felony charges, including first-degree reckless homicide and first-degree intentional homicide.
“Is there any White Tears Law School I don’t know?” Che asked. “I noticed that every time you get into trouble, you start crying and everything will be resolved for you, whether you want to defeat the murder charge or become a Supreme Court justice,” he said Kava when he took a picture of Brett Nuo appeared on the screen.
Before becoming a Supreme Court judge, Kavanaugh became emotional when he testified that he did not sexually assault Christine Blassy Ford.
Other topics discussed in the “Weekend Update” included the end of Spears’ supervision and Swift’s 10-minute performance of the re-released song “All Too Well.”
Please don’t spoil-“Three Sad Virgins”
Actor Pete Davidson invited Ben Marshall, John Higgins and Martin Helich to appear with him in a video about best friends hanging out. However, when these three guys realized that the song was about Davidson and three sad virgins, please don’t destroy the sketching team, they got a disappointing surprise.
Davidson started the music video by raping his side seat and famous friends “Except for these three sad virgins”.
Marshall, Higgins, and Herlihy were offended after learning that they were the “three sad virgins”, but were unwilling to stand up against Davidson. When they finally decided to call him out, Davidson agreed to end as soon as Swift sang the bridge.
Swift began to sing Marshall “Like a sad Ron Weasley, he looks like a big bird who has lost all his feathers.” Then she turned her attention to Herlihy, who was described as “has the charm of a scarecrow and Sexy.
Swift then noticed that Higgins had a big “bowling ball head” and questioned: “How did he use that big fat melon to keep it upright?”
Finally, Davidson and Swift came together and determined that the three sad virgins “will die alone.”
Actor Liu Simu will host the next episode “Saturday night live,” Saweetie as the guest of music.
