John Mulaney on 'SNL': 3 Sketches You Have to See

occur mid-show was always a possibility with musical host David Byrne. But having a pajamas-wearing Jake Gyllenhaal taking to the sky in an ode towas extra icing on the cake. Other highlights include “the entire sketch, damnit,” but a special shout-out goes to Bowen Yang’s take on “Suddenly Seymour,” which brought great vocal chops but also managed to include the type of topical humor usually found in the cold open or “Weekend Update.

If that sounds pretentious as hell, that’s probably because I’m in that supposedly “small group” Mulaney mentioned in the monologue. The best sketches this week did whatis supposed to do: Reflect the fears and craziness of the world around it and find a way to make us laugh at it. That’s comedy as service, and it’s a service that’s increasingly needed these days.

Largely left on his own, Bernie Sanders celebrated the happiness he felt not only from recent polls but also being left physically alone due to concerns about the virus. Having Mulaney play Biden was a strange choice, but maybe the show is turning this into a “guess who’ll play Biden THIS week” game that you can bet on through Draft Kings. Who knows?
