Alec Baldwin's New SNL Skit: A Funny Take on Politics

This Saturday, Alec Baldwin made a comeback on "Saturday Night Live, " but he wasn't playing his famous role of former President Donald Trump. Instead, he switched gears to portray Fox News' Bret Baier in a hilarious skit that mimicked Baier's recent interview with Vice President Kamala Harris. The audience cheered as Baldwin appeared, joking that he looked like a Minecraft businessman. The skit focused on Baier's real-life interruptions during the interview. Baldwin, playing Baier, interrupted Maya Rudolph as Harris numerous times, causing Rudolph to promptly ask for a chance to finish her responses. Baldwin's character refused, leading to a humorous exchange about when he'd stop interrupting. Another funny moment involved a mistake Baier made during the real interview, where he played the wrong clip of a Trump response. This became a chance for "SNL" to include mini-skits, including one with Dana Carvey as President Joe Biden. Despite the constant interruptions, the sketch ended with Harris managing to say what she'd been trying to say all along: "Live from New York, it’s Saturday night! " Baldwin joined in, making the scene even more entertaining. Michael Keaton, known for his role in "Beetlejuice, " hosted the show, with Billie Eilish performing as the musical guest. Baldwin has a long history with "SNL, " having hosted it a record 17 times, although he hasn't appeared recently due to his trial for involuntary manslaughter related to the fatal shooting on the set of "Rust, " which ended in a mistrial in July.
