Just like a Tesla, Saturday Night Live is off recharging its own batteries tonight, so enjoy an SNL repeat hosted by Elon Musk!
The cast and crew of Saturday Night Live are enjoying some down time along with working on summer projects while deciding who will be back in the fall and who wont. According to Page Six, SNL contracts for Season 47 will not be decided until later in the summer. But theres no reason why we cant speculate in the meantime.
Of course, the only person talking about any cast changes at Saturday Night Live is cast member Pete Davidson and hes not giving up much. In a recent interview with Gold Derby, Pete said, I dont know what the plan is. Everythings kind of up in the air right now just depending on scheduling. So the only thing we can gather from that is that Pete has more than one thing on his schedule including the release of this summers comic book movie, The Suicide Squad.
Meanwhile back at tonights repeat, if you think this SNL encore has a musky smell to it, youd be right. Its hosted by Tesla, Inc. and SpaceX creator and CEO, Elon Musk. The show was surrounded by pretend controversy with online gossipers acting like the SNL cast was going to revolt and walk out on the show because of Elon Musks controversial statements and tweets in the past. None of that happened. This episode of Saturday Night Live had no complications or problems. It originally aired on Saturday, May 8, 2021, Mothers Day Eve.
Tonights SNL replay opens with a Saturday Night Live long-standing tradition. Just about every year, on the Saturday before Mothers Day, SNL ditches its regular routine of an opening sketch and hands over the SNL Cold Open to the casts mothers. Each cast member who still has a mom in his or her life introduces that important woman to the world on stage at Studio 8-H to begin the show. Maybe thats why no one had drama over Elon Musk. No one was going to walk off and keep their mom from getting to appear on television.
This year, the tradition continued with the 2021 cast. But there was something special planned. Tonights musical guest, Miley Cyrus kicked off this evenings cold open singing a beautiful rendition of her godmother Dolly Partons song Light of a Clear Blue Morning.
SNL fans look forward to the Mothers Day show every season. Because its great to see which moms share the same comic timing as their son or daughter in the SNL cast, like cast member Kate McKinnons mom who does an impression of former cast member Molly Shannons Superstar character Mary-Catherine Gallagher and Kenan Thompsons mom who taught him how to do reaction shots.
We also love how some of the moms look just like their famous offspring. Heidi Gardner and Aidy Bryants moms are totally twinzies for their daughters. All the mothers look fantastic tonight, but its always fun seeing the moms who look so young, they could be mistaken for the cast members sister instead of their mother. Hi Beck Bennetts Mom. The moms make this tradition so much fun that it makes you wish SNL wasnt on summer hiatus during Fathers Day.
The sweet Mothers Day segment comes to a close with the entire cast (and their mothers) shouting Live from New York, its Saturday Night!. And with this season having the largest cast in SNL history, thats a pretty big group.
For his inaugural Saturday Night Live monologue, host Elon Musk takes to the stage to loud applause. Something hes probably used to having happen at Tesla, Inc. During the monologue, we get a lot of information about the world class inventor and entrepreneur and its probably the first and last time that we hear an SNL host use the phrase running human in emulation mode.
Besides sharing his vision for the future with the audience, tonight, Elon Musk also announces hes the first person with Aspergers to host SNL. This led to a debate after the show by people who pointed out that original SNL cast member Dan Aykroyd from the Not Ready For Prime Time Players was the first person with Aspergers Syndrome to host the variety series.
Either way, Elon Musk received praise and appreciation from the Autistic community not only for his performance, but for the recognition he was able to provide Autism by announcing that he is on the spectrum to a national audience. This evenings host has plenty to say about his own life during the monologue and we even get the secret origin behind the very unconventional name of Elon Musks son, X A-Xii.
Plus, we get to meet Elon Musks mother as well which is only fair since we just got to meet the casts moms a few minutes earlier. Maye Musk talks with Elon about how he invented his own video game when he was kid. Although, shes not as forthcoming when discussing what happened to the money he was paid for his game. Side Bar: After meeting Elon Musks very striking mother in tonights SNL repeat, youll understand how shes still working as a fashion model today.
As we get into the meat of the show, the first sketch is called GenZ Hospital. You might want to look up some Generation Z slang terms and phrases before watching this sketch about a hospital where everything is said in GenZ speak. Think of this SNL sketch as The Californians, if they were even harder to understand, Bruh.
Featured player Chloe Fineman gets what is soon to be a recurring character in this episode of Saturday Night Live. Chloe stars as Ooli, Icelands #1 social media influencer in The Ooli Show. This sketch is an Icelandic talk show sketch hosted by Ooli. For long time SNL fans, this sketch will bring back memories of Sprockets with then-cast member Mike Myers. But only if you took Sprockets and combined it with a Hello Kitty store and then dropped it in a bowl of Lucky Charms cereal. As a bonus, you get cast member Kate McKinnon as recent Academy Award winner Frances McDormand and cast member Melissa Villaseor as Icelands own Bjrk.
Elon Musk covers a lot of territory in this evenings live sketches. Tonights host finds himself playing a classic video game villain on trial for murder, and then later in the show, our host is in a Wild West sketch where hes an eccentric genius cowboy. This saloon sketch, which wraps up the night, shows us that its a pretty good thing that Elon wasnt born a century earlier.
Our host takes on some accents and wears a lot of wigs and fake facial hair in this evenings Saturday Night Live repeat, but to make it easier on a person who is not a performer by trade, tonights episode has three SNL Shorts which we assume is in order to limit the amount of time Elon Musk spent on-stage on live television. And it also provided more time for costume changes.
The first SNL Short in tonights Saturday Night Live rerun can be explained by simply looking at the title of it. Its called Every Conversation With People You Havent Seen Since Quarantine Started. Yep, its pretty self-explanatory and its the nightmare, post-pandemic world we all feared would be waiting for us after Covid.
And if you thought GenZ Hospital was hard to decipher, wait till you get to the second SNL Short of the night which is a trailer for a new crime drama called Murdur Durdur: An Extremely Pennsylvania Crime Show. According to SNL, this crime show got rave reviews from the Del-Co Daily Times.
As the IBang predicted, we get a Mars colony sketch in tonights repeat starring the man who claims he will take us to the Red Planet, host Elon Musk. In the last SNL Short of the night called The Astronauts, Musk plays himself in the near future at SpaceX HQ dealing with a crisis at his Martian colony. It requires someone willing to go on a suicide mission. Luckily, theres Chad. Uh-kay. Also, watch for a cameo in this SNL Short by tonights musical guest Miley Cyrus.
This evenings SNL rerun may have loaded up on SNL Shorts, but the host didnt get any time to rest during Weekend Update because Elon Musk goes live as a character during SNLs news segment. He plays Lloyd Ostertag, SNL Financial Expert. Lloyd, who christened himself as the Doge Father, is appearing on Weekend Update to explain cryptocurrency to everyone and why it was booming. Well, booming when this show first aired. And if youre not sure what Dogecoin actually is, youll have to keep asking.
The main story covered by anchormen Colin Jost and Michael Che on Weekend Update tonight is something close to the hosts heart, space travel. Jost reports on a space rocket that went spinning out of control and crashed into the ocean earlier that day. With that day being back on May 8th when the show originally aired. Colin Jost then reveals thats why Elon Musk is hosting the show. So hed have an alibi.
Michael Ches opening story is about Amazon CEO Jeff Bezo and his space flight company, Blue Origin, auctioning off a seat on his passenger rocket, so wealthy people can go into space. Che wondered about why rich, white people would want to go into space so badly. Then, he warned any Martians watching SNL, when you see a bunch of foreign ships pull up on your land, take it from a Black dude, dont get on them! He adds, Unless you want to be a Martian with the last name Washington'.
On the rest of the Weekend Update broadcast, a sampling of the stories covered by Jost and Che include disgraced President Trumps new blog, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis hoping to disenfranchise voters by signing new restrictive voting laws, evangelicals not wanting the Covid vaccine, Vice-President Kamala Harris new wax figure, Broadway reopening, the weird photo of the Bidens and the Carters, South Carolina wanting to bring back firing squads, a Snow White controversy, L.A.s population dropping, and an allegedly shitty McDonalds lunch.
Cast member Ego Nwodim gets a turn to play a Weekend Update character at the news desk when she appears as Pauline, a Weary Mother in her Darkest Hour. She is discussing her trip to the recently reopened Disneyland theme park with her kids. Unfortunately, Splash Mountain broke down. and it has taken Pauline into, yes, her darkest hour.
The final guest of the night on Weekend Update is the star of the Disney+ adventure series The Mandalorian, Baby Yoda. Kyle Mooney is back once again as the creature known as Grogu and hes bringing some big time energy with him. Hes talking to Michael Che about May 4th, better known as Star Wars Day. Baby Yoda is also discussing his recent MMA training, his posse, and his new Happy Meal endorsement deal with McDonalds.
Feel free to check out the promos taped for tonights SNL repeat just below. Host Elon Musk is joined by musical guest Miley Cyrus and cast member Cecily Strong. Elon explains that hes a wild card while Miley points out that the rules dont apply to her, so anything can happen on tonights SNL. That is until killjoy cast member Cecily Strong reminds everyone that their mothers will be in-studio. The trio are also comparing their recent accomplishments with each other. Between rocket launches and getting the laundry done, this triad is really making things happen.
Tesla and SpaceXs very own Elon Musk is hosting tonights Saturday Night Live rerun with musical guest, everyones favorite wild child, Miley Cyrus. It happens this evening at 11:30pm et on NBC.
And SNL will be back with new, live shows this fall.
