If you’ve ever imagined what it might look like to watch two presidential candidates waltz through a giant dance number, complete with fog machines and tuxedoed butlers, today’s your lucky day.
The phrase “full-blown nut job” is not always a nice way to describe someone. But it may be, in some cases, an accurate way.
Sometimes parody is too real to be funny—too accurate and terrifying and nightmarish to make you laugh. This week’s ‘Saturday Night Live’ cold open is just that: too, too real.
On the night that the Republican debate in New Hampshire opened with the candidates unable to follow basic instructions, the liberal end of the political spectrum offered up something that at least aimed to be intentionally funny: Bernie Sanders’ expected cameo next to his new impersonator, tonight’s SNL host Larry…
When you’re inundated with the ravings of an orange lunatic who is also a popular candidate to become the leader of your country, it almost seems like anything would be better than him.
Saturday Night Live forwent its usual opening monologue in favor of a somber tribute to Paris, after a series of attacks that have rocked the city.
Shriveled apricot and presidential candidate Donald Trump took the stage at Saturday Night Live on Saturday night, and he was every bit as bombastic and as orange as usual.
Sixteen months after a devastating car accident left him in critical condition, Tracy Morgan is returning to Saturday Night Live. The former 30 Rock star will host the October 17 episode of the sketch-comedy show, which he appeared on for seven seasons.
Last night, on Saturday Night Live, Dakota Johnson graduated from high school and joined ISIS. Her proud and teary-eyed dad, played by Taran Killiam, dropped her off. "Death to America," shouted an ISIS fighter played by Kyle Mooney.
Saturday Night Live finally strung together two really solid episodes in a row, which means we get another "cut for time" sketch that feels like it should have been in the show: Martin Freeman selling Santa traps in an infomercial that takes a turn from cheesy to disturbing.
Continuing its streak of cutting all the wrong things, Saturday Night Live released this very solid VH1 parody sketch from last weekend's James Franco episode as a "digital exclusive"—not sure if that's better or worse than "cut for time."
Saturday Night Live almost addressed the situation in Ferguson this weekend, but, like the cheerful morning news anchors in this "cut for time" sketch, they decided they'd rather talk about literally anything else.
On the latest episode of Late Night With Seth Meyers, the 131-part television documentary about Seth Meyers' time at Saturday Night Live, guy who makes that face Jason Sudeikis got a chance to see his favorite old, unproduced SNL sketch finally make it to air.
This sketch starring Aidy Bryant was cut from SNL for time, but it should not have been, because it's a fantastic reminder that no one should ever tweet.

Human grown-ups: Have you tried everything to stop spontaneous attacks of realizing you love Taylor Swift? You're not alone: Thousands of adults suffer from Taylor Swift-Onset Vertigo, especially after the recent release of "Shake It Off." Fortunately, Saturday Night Live has a pharmaceutical cure.
Chris Rock hosted Saturday Night Live last night (with musical guest Prince!) and caused a bit of a Twitter stir with his opening monologue, which didn't include even one song. Uh, this is Saturday Night Live, Chris Rock. Ya gotta sing something in your monologue!
Jim Carrey's spot-on Matthew McConaughey impression was the buried lede from this week's SNL. McConaughey's self-serious Lincoln commercial is old news at this point, but not as old as the recycled Mask and Cable Guy jokes from that unwatchable family reunion sketch.
Jim Carrey hosted last night's Saturday Night Live, promoting the upcoming Dumb and Dumber To, and it was alllllll right. (Ace Ventura reference.) At the very least, it only improved after Carrey's Halloween monologue, during which he played Helvis—hell Elvis—and sang about pecan pie. (I think, an odd reference to…
Saturday Night Live brought back one of its strongest recent alums, Bill Hader, this weekend, and while the show got a great Stefon update out of the deal, it didn't take full advantage of Hader's hosting gig.
