Don Cheadle warms up for his Saturday Night Live hosting debut with some promo playacting alongside SNL‘s Alex Moffat. In a parody of ’70s buddy cop dramas, the Black Monday star and the SNL player don the blues, chomp some donuts, high-five and fire off a round or two, all without so much as a smidgen of real…

The Saturday Night Live winter finale appropriately kicked off with a holiday-themed black and white cold open titled “It’s a Wonderful Trump” which celebrated a Trump-less presidency with some of your favorite SNL special guest stars. Obviously, Alec Baldwin came in to reprise his role as Donald Trump one last time…

This week’s cold open on Saturday Night Live brings us to Eric Trump’s (Alex Moffat) bedroom and it is way past his bedtime — but his older bro Donald Jr. (Mikey Day) comes to make sure everything is okay. Turns out Eric thinks there is a boogie man in his closet. Spoiler alert: there is — and he is in the form of Robe…

This week’s cold open for Saturday Night Live strayed away from the midterm elections from earlier this week and decided to focus on Jeff Sessions leaving his post as Attorney General.

Alex Moffat brought his Anderson Cooper to an all-star Saturday Night Live cold open tonight (see video below), which addressed the recent White House firings of acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.

Over…

UPDATE With Video Saturday Night Live gave Morning Joe what it had coming tonight, with Kate McKinnon and Alex Moffat introducing cooing, note-perfect impressions of Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough – and Alec Baldwin literally phoning in his Donald Trump. Moffat’s grouchy, exasperated “Oh, Mikaaaa” just might be a…

Eric and Donald Trump Jr. stepped from under their dad’s Saturday Night Live shadow last night – or at least their stinging SNL doppelgängers did. Usually relegated to the quiet sidelines of Alec Baldwin’s DJT sketches, the American Psycho-haired Trump boys, surgically carved by Mikey Day (as Donald Jr., the most…

Last night’s Alec Baldwin-hosted Saturday Night Live wasn’t entirely Trumpian. The episode had a few stand-out, non-political moments, beginning with Baldwin’s jokes-on-me monologue. Marking his record-breaking 17th time as host, Baldwin launched into a nostalgic trip through episodes past, from his 1991 debut through…

Saturday Night Live‘s trio of newcomers – Mikey Day, Alex Moffat and Melissa Villaseñor – accomplished last night what few of the show’s past unknowns managed: They actually made good, strong impressions (in some cases literally). Granted, the bar is generally low – don’t F-bomb your way into SNL oblivion like Jenny…
