'SNL' Cold Open sees Harris vs Trump in 'Family Feud'

Saturday Night Live took another swing at the 2024 presidential election in their latest episode, but this time with a twist—bringing the debate chaos to the set of Family Feud, hosted by none other than Steve Harvey, played as always by Kenan Thompson.

In the skit, which was part of SNL‘s 50th anniversary season, Harvey moderates a wild game of “Democrats vs. Republicans.” On Team Democrat, Maya Rudolph returns as Kamala Harris, alongside Andy Samberg as Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff, Jim Gaffigan as Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, and SNL legend Dana Carvey reprising his spot-on impression of President Joe Biden.

Meanwhile, on Team Republican, James Austin Johnson serves up his pitch-perfect Donald Trump, joined by Mikey Day as Donald Trump Jr. and Bowen Yang as Ohio senator J.D. Vance. But if you’re wondering where Melania is, well, Trump himself can’t seem to keep track. As Johnson’s Trump quips, he last saw her by his side “two years ago.”

As expected with Family Feud, the game quickly went off the rails. The Democrats easily snagged points on “What’s in your glovebox?” with Kamala Harris answering “Gun” and Doug Emhoff following up with “A second gun,” the higher-scoring response.

On the Republican side, only Donald Trump got the spotlight, while Trump Jr. and J.D. Vance were told to stay quiet. Bowen Yang’s Vance deadpanned, “We were told not to speak.”

It was a solid Cold Open to start Saturday’s affairs as Ariana Grande hosted ahead of the premiere of Wicked, with Steve Nicks as the musical guest performance. It’ll be interesting to see what’ll be cooked up next week.

The Iconic Sci-Fi Adventure Series You Can't Find Anywhere On Streaming

The series is based on characters created in 1928 by science fiction writer Philip Francis Nowlan, whose novella Armageddon 2419 A.D. later spawned comic strips, a serial film, and early radio and TV shows.

Glen A. Larson and Leslie Stevens eventually adapted Buck Rogers in the 25th Century for network television in the late 1970s as it vied for a share of the ever-growing market of young sci-fi fans.

Buck Rogers in the 25th Century follows its title character half a millennium after he is accidentally frozen. Revived 504 years later, Buck Rogers tries comically to adjust to the social changes of the future, all while helping the Earth Defense Directorate fend off warring factions from the planet Draconian.

Throughout its two-season run, the show featured prominent guest stars and up-and-coming performers, including Markie Post, Richard Moll, Vera Miles, Buster Crabbe, Jerry Orbach, and Sid Haig.

As great as the setting is, characters are always the most important part of a sitcom, and Derry Girls is no exception.

The core friend group consists of pseudo-intellectual Erin, eccentric Orla, high-strung Clare, party girl Michelle, and group punching bag James are consistently funny characters.  It’s also full of character-driven gags, such as James being the only boy at their school, and Orla constantly reading Erin’s diary out loud for her personal enjoyment.
