No matter your personal opinion of the show, Saturday Night Live has been a comedy staple in America for ages. Beginning in 1975 with Chevy Chase as the original news anchor, the Weekend Update is the show's longest-running segment, and is even said to be the birth place of the satirical news sketch for the likes of the Colbert Report and The Daily Show.
Our friend Kanye West is in the news more than ever right now. He performed his infamous new song "I Love it" on Saturday Night Live over the weekend with Lil Pump wearing a Perrier bottle costume, and wore a MAGA hat while giving a pro-Trump speech that didn't actually make it on air. Since then, people have been meme-ing Kanye to absolute heck.
Surprise! America's pop princess is engaged to comedian Pete Davidson after just a few weeks of dating. The news comes as a shock especially after Grande broadcasted her split from boyfriend of two years, Mac Miller, just two days before the announcement that she and Davidson were an item. The internet is very confused and people have some pretty wild speculations and theories about what's really going on.

The multi-talented Donald Glover hosted Saturday Night Live last night, and Star Wars fans will be happy to know that his Lando made an appearance as well. In the skit, the smooth-talking leader of Cloud City is holding a summit to honor all of the black humans in space. There's just one problem: he is one of just four. Glover's portrayal of the former smuggler is absolute perfection, leaving us even more stoked for Solo's late May release.
It's been 12 years since Natalie Portman's first nasty rap collaboration with The Lonely Island. Feel old yet? The actress returned to Saturday Night Live this past weekend and gifted us with this equally aggro sequel. There's even a shout out to Tide pods.
Saturday Night Live is catching some serious flack over Saturday's questionable sketch that brazenly mocked Irish culture. The segment, which was meant to poke fun at Irish airline Aer Lingus, was overflowing stereotypes that ranged from cheap (the in-flight menu consisted of only potatoes) to bizarre (dogs, everywhere).
Perplexed fans tweeted their distaste for both the skit and host Saoirse Ronan's impression of an Aer Lingus flight attendant - but the airline itself managed to steal the show. In retaliation, Aer Lingus penned a Donald Trump-esque tweet, calling the episode unwatchable and biased. Perhaps Saturday Night Live should think about refreshing their writer's room if they can't feature an Irish host without making jokes about potatoes.

Fans of Ken Bone should watch this if only to find out if he was right on who would play him on Saturday Night Live.
There's also this beautiful song, written entirely by Melania Trump (just like her RNC speech):
Welp, our dreams about to be weird for a few days.

It finally happened.
One brave (or stumped) Jeopardy contestant got Alex Trebek to say "Turd Ferguson" during Sept. 16's final round.
This is one for the ages folks.
Of course, she got the idea from none other than Burt Reynolds and his mastery of comedic timing and poise.
"It's a funny name."
You can watch that whole classic Saturday Night Live skit here:

Martin Freeman hosted SNL this weekend, so of course there was a "Lord of the Rings"/"Office" mashup.
In one of the funnier sketches of the night, after saving Middle Earth, Bilbo Baggins starts working for Gandalf at a paper company alongside the pesky Gollum.
