Celebrities in legal trouble make a pitch to see if any of the legal sharks, Michael Avenatti (Pete Davidson), Jeanine Pirro (Cecily Strong), Alan Dershowitz (John Mulaney) or Rudy Giuliani (Kate McKinnon) will take their case.

I loved the cold open this week.

(205,237 posts)And I agree with you about Cecily Strong! That woman has the worst voice possible for television - or anywhere else - and she really gets that!
A lot of people don't even remember that Jeanine Pirro had a very short failed campaign here in New York running against Hillary Clinton for senator! She couldn't even make it through one speech where she got her notes all mixed up - I can't believe she went on to be hired on TV!

(20,238 posts)I don't get to watch every week. Who's the character she plays in the group that gets interviewed. She smokes, talks plain talk, sits spread eagle on her chair. She's a veritable hoot. Doesn't even crack a hint of a smile while doing it. That one gets me. I laugh so hard.
How you be, dear one?
Love ya! 💙

(205,237 posts)She can impersonate anyone, any age, gender - I hope that she never moves on to anything else that doesn't make use of her talents!
And I'm tired this week, nodded off earlier, but I woke up just in time to catch the SNL Opening!

Somethin' in the air? I dunno why some end of a week we're shnockered more than others.
It's gonna rain again today. Blech.
Pleasant nitey-nite. 😴

(205,237 posts)He tends to snore. I felt bad getting him off my lap so I could get to my computer. My dog is a lap dog while my cat is not no matter how hard I try...
And at least it's not snowing here - at the moment. I just wish it would get warmer enough here so some of those mammoth snowbanks would melt! Get some good rest!

(889 posts)Literally everything she does is fantastic. She could read a dictionary and make it sound funny.
Maybe I'll get in trouble for saying this. But to my mind it's a shame she's gay. Because otherwise I'd ask her to marry me.

(205,237 posts)We've discussed before here that we miss her Jeff Sessions, LOL. She can do them all. And she really is quite pretty - but she can play an old creepy guy like Giuliani and make it believable!

(889 posts)...that when she impersonates a person on SNL, I sometimes don't know it's her. Then I take a look at the clip on YouTube the next day. And here it was Kate McKinnon all along.
SNL, pay Kate whatever she wants. Don't you dare let her go.
Rhiannon12866
(205,237 posts)She really has found her niche - no other role could make such great use of her talents. Kenan Thompson is the other one I hope never leaves, he is also very funny - and I was tickled to see Bill Hader back, he's always very funny in whatever he does!

(205,237 posts)It's not like they'd run out of Republicans/Trump allies that need legal help anytime soon! And it's yet another opportunity to see Kate McKinnon as Guiliani!
