Sharon Stone appeared on the Fly on the Wall with Dana Carvey and David Spade podcast this week, where she reflected on her 1992 appearance on Saturday Night Live. The actress hosted the late-night sketch show to promote Basic Instinct and some of the skits were themed around the actress taking her clothes off. On the podcast, Carvey acknowledged that Stone “was such a good sport,” adding that “the comedy we did in 1992 with Sharon Stone, we would be literally arrested now.” One sketch in particular was the…

Josh Brolin, the “Avengers: Endgame” actor riding high (on a worm, even!) on the success of his latest film “Dune 2,” proved a reliable “Saturday Night Live” host for the third time. Is he the most dynamic guest host ever to appear on the show? No. Is he the funniest? No, but he’s clearly got a great sense of humor and a willingness to shed his vanity that goes a long way on a sketch show.In this outing, Brolin shed more than his vanity: in his monologue, he stripped down to his underwear and took a dip in an ice-filled…

"That was honestly some of the worst acting I've ever seen, and I've seen me," Colin Jost joked Saturday Night Live‘s Weekend Update took aim at Donald Trump‘s verbal blunders and the GOP’s State of the Union rebuttal by Alabama Senator Katie Britt. Reacting to how Trump had criticized President Joe Biden’s address to Congress Thursday, writing on Truth Social that “the words are not flowing smoothly out of his mouth,” co-anchor Colin Jost said in jest that “we can’t all speak with the…

Saturday Night Live host Josh Brolin teamed up with Heidi Gardner to play bank customers caught up in a heist who use their kinkiness to help get the robbers to abandon their mission. After two armed men dressed in black enter, Gardner eggs them on despite their hesitancy to engage with her. “No one gets hurt? Yeah, right. I’ve seen enough movies to know what happens to a chick like me. Take me to the vault and get it over with, you nasty boys!” she exclaims, prompting one of the robbers (James Austin…

Saturday Night Live‘s cold open was indeed what many had asked for: a biting parody of Alabama Sen. Katie Britt‘s cringey rebuttal to President Joe Biden‘s State of the Union address Thursday. SNL‘s Britt, played by Scarlett Johansson, told viewers from the start that for the next few minutes, she would be “auditioning for the part of scary mom” and “performing an original monologue called ‘This Country Is Hell.'” “My husband, Wesley, and I just watched President Biden’s speech, and what I saw was the…

Sydney Sweeney’s debut as “Saturday Night Live” guest host was a smooth one. The star of “Euphoria” and “The White Lotus” showed in sketch after sketch that she could hold her own comedically even if a lot of the material didn’t give her much to work with beyond playing off her sex-symbol public image or one-note stereotype characters.That doesn’t mean the show didn’t have its moments. Maybe it was because of the very-short performances from musical guest Kacey Musgraves, but this week’s episode of “SNL” had a lot of…
