SNL cold open featured Alec Baldwin as Bret Baier spoofing the Kamala Harris Fox News interview

The 2024 presidential election is just over two weeks away, and Saturday Night Live is thriving with all of the political content to parody. This weekend, the show was hosted by actor Michael Keaton, and the opening skit featured a play on the recent interview with Vice President Kamala Harris and Bret Baier on Fox News.

Actor Alec Baldwin, who starred in the original Beetlejuice with Keaton in 1988, made his return to SNL to play Baier. In the skit, Baldwin’s Baier repeatedly interrupts VP Harris — played by Maya Rudolph once again — and accused her of looking for a “viral moment.”

After denying that, Rudolph’s Harris looked into the camera a couple times, imitating viral TikTok trends like using the “very demure, very mindful” phrase and the recent popular audio “in the clerb, we all fam.”

The skit continues with a portion on showing the wrong clips and a discussion on former president Trump’s recent troubles with stranded rally goers.
