Melissa McCarthy Skits Saturday Night Live
Melissa is a reliably funny host–particularly if you are a fan of gross out humor. My favorite bits didn’t feature her front and center–the Hillary for President cold open, the Kyle vs Kanye rap battle and especially the brilliant and on point “The Day Beyonce Turned Black.” Oh, the horror! A bit in Weekend Update featured Super Bowl MVP Von Miller explaining the discovery of gravitational waves. He majored in poultry science at Texas A&M, in case you were wondering.
Hillary For President Cold Open
