"Will Forte made a surprise return to Saturday Night Live, bringing back MacGruber for a very special (and very timely) series of shorts. Turns out, M-G appears on the un-redacted Epstein List, and his assistant Colton (Glen Powell) has the only copy. But don't worry, MacGruber was just working on the flight crew and selling extremely stepped-on cocaine to the jetsetting pervs. He himself was not a jetsetting perv."
"This is the first MacGruber sketch since 2022, when Forte hosted SNL. That one was in part to promote the MacGruber TV show on Peacock. If only this sketch was a tacit promise of a second season."
"This wasn't the only Epstein content on last night's SNL. The cold open saw Trump (James Austin Johnson) and White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt (Ashley Padilla) fielding questions about the Epstein emails. Trump even offered to sell a framed low-res copy of the "blowing bubba" email for $800. The emails - which include many references to Trump - were released on Wednesday. Rude of congress to drop them after writing night."
Will Forte returned to Saturday Night Live to revive MacGruber in a series of timely shorts. MacGruber appears on the un-redacted Epstein List, and his assistant Colton (Glen Powell) holds the only copy. MacGruber claims he worked on the flight crew and sold extremely stepped-on cocaine to jetsetting pervs while insisting he was not a jetsetting perv. The sketch marks the first MacGruber appearance since 2022, when Forte hosted SNL and partly promoted the MacGruber TV show on Peacock. The show also featured a cold open with Trump (James Austin Johnson) and Karoline Leavitt (Ashley Padilla) fielding questions about recently released Epstein emails. Trump’s sketch even offered a framed low-res copy of the "blowing bubba" email for $800. The emails were released on Wednesday and include many references to Trump.
