In her Instagram stories, Wood expressed her disappointment with a recent SNL skit, describing it as "mean and unfunny," suggesting there are more nuanced ways to approach comedy. While she is open to playful jests about her appearance, she felt that the skit unfairly targeted her with outdated misogyny, particularly the punchline about fluoride. Wood clarified her remarks were aimed at the concept of the skit rather than the performer Sarah Sherman and indicated she has received apologies from SNL regarding the backlash.
In a series of Instagram stories, Wood stated the skit was "mean and unfunny" and that there "must be a cleverer, more nuanced, less cheap way" to poke fun.
I am not thin-skinned," she wrote. "I actually love being taken the piss out of when it's clever and in good spirits. But the joke was about fluoride.
However, the 31-year-old noted that she was not "hating on" Sarah Sherman but "hated the concept."
On Sunday, Wood wrote in another Instagram story, "I've had apologies from SNL."
