Who Is Hosting Saturday Night Live Tonight: May 5, 2018

As for what’s in store for the sketches and Weekend Update portions of the show, let’s face it. In the news, it’s Trump, Trump and more Trump. The President’s non-stop lying about the Stormy Daniels controversy has been making headlines all throughout the time that SNL was off in April and seems to have ramped up even more this week heading back into live shows. Thank you Mr. President. Also, there was the White House Correspondents’ Dinner which some saw as an attack on Trump’s Press Secretary, Sarah “If My Lips Are Moving, I’m Lying” Huckabee-Sanders by the dinner’s host Michelle Wolf. We covered the reaction to Wolf’s act and how fellow comedians had her back extensively on the IBang. This could make it into a sketch tonight with cast member Aidy Bryant bringing her impression of Huckabee-Sanders back to life on SNL and Glover may even address it in his monologue. It’s been a few weeks since we’ve seen Alec Baldwin return as our embattled President, so that’s a real possibility as well. However, the most interesting part of tonight’s new Saturday Night Live, is the return of former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani into President Trump’s life. Besides being a sure target for the Weekend Update news team of Colin Jost and Michael Che, we may see another cast member get to join the SNL version of the recurring Trump Administration characters as Mayor Rudy. With Beck Bennett as Veep Mike Pence, Mikey Day and Alex Moffat as Trump sons, Donald Jr and Eric and Kate McKinnon as Attorney General & House Elf Jeff Sessions, we’re curious to see who in the SNL cast will don the make up to become legal adviser and former-Mayor Rudy G. Besides Trump, there’s plenty going on for SNL and Weekend Update to use as material on tonight’s show including the Bill Cosby conviction, the upcoming Royal Wedding and Kanye West’s love affair with the President. Oh wait. That’s just more Trump.
