Saturday Night Live [4]'s season 45 finale kicked off with an opening monologue from none other than Kristen Wiig. For the show's third at-home episode, Kristen rolled out of bed, slipped on some sequins, and flashed the camera before launching into a full dance sequence. Things quieted down as she sent her mom some well wishes and sang — er, belted — a lullaby.
Live tapings of SNL shut down because of the coronavirus pandemic, but the show returned with its first-ever "SNL At Home" edition on April 11, when Tom Hanks opened with a monologue delivered from his kitchen [5]. Since then, the writers have gotten creative with their skits as cast members and celebrity guests film remotely. Brad Pitt transformed into Dr. Anthony Fauci [6] for the latest episode, which also included a hilarious Kate McKinnon sketch [7] starring her cat as a coworker, plus a memorable performance from Miley Cyrus [8].
