Saturday Night Live‘s 50th anniversary special is casting a long shadow, or maybe just causing a long hangover, at least as depicted in SNL‘s latest promo featuring this week’s guest host Shane Gillis and various still-reeling cast members.
In the promo – watch it above – Gillis is greeted in the studio by cast member Ashley Padilla, who tries to reassure the host that the cast is fully recovered from the big party and ready to play.
Gillis isn’t persuaded – a snoring Michael Longfellow (or is it Marcello Hernandez?) is passed out, Mikey Day is wandering around in Sarah Sherman’s clothes and Please Don’t Destroy’s Ben Marshall, John Higgins and Martin Herlihy are arguing over which one of them is Ben.
The ante is upped with the arrival of a remorseful Emil Wakim, who asks if anyone knows a “good tattoo removal guy.” Nothing good ever came from a question like that.
Gillis returns to host for the second time (his Netflix comedy Tires returns for its second season later this year). Tate McRae will be the musical guest, also her second time on the show, ahead of her new album So Close to What.
SNL airs Saturday at 11:30pm ET/8:30pm PT on NBC and streams live on Peacock.
