SNL: Meet The Press Cold Open

[Rhiannon12866]

Chuck Todd (Kyle Mooney), Eugene Robinson (Kenan Thompson), Peggy Noonan (Cecily Strong) and Donna Brazile (Leslie Jones) debate what Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos' penis looks like in stolen texts on Meet the Press.

1. K&R and off to the greatest. n/t

2. Thanks!

This wasn't one of their best efforts - but it was well worth watching for Kate McKinnon as Wilbur Ross again! And was that Aidy Bryant as Matt Whitaker?? I laughed out loud!

3. Yeah, the impressions were good. But, the skit seemed like an 8yo boy wrote it

4. I have to agree!

I read earlier here that DUers weren't pleased with the Eugene Robinson portrayal and I agree with that. Kenan Thompson is always great, but Gene Robinson is usually the smartest guy in the room and he has a sense of humor, but I can't see him saying any of these things... Donna Brazile was pretty good - and I did love Kate McKinnon as Wilbur Ross, but that was just dumb.

5. Best line: Will we see his Prime Package.

6. Thanks Rhiannon!

I'm so glad you posted! I was looking for clips on You Tube and couldn't find them! Pretty funny!

7. My favorite part: Whittaker telling the viewers about Trump's private phone call to him:

“I’m going to tell you something that’s going to blow this whole thing out of the water, I didn’t talk about this in the hearing, Mr. Trump called and whispered to me...”
And Chuck Todd interrupts him with “I’m sorry to interrupt, but I’m being told the Bezos pictures are out this very moment!”

And of course, Kate McKinnon is always a riot no matter who she pretends to be. I think she does Jeff Sessions and Wilbur Ross the best!
