(206,758 posts)And I know that everyone is excited about Steve Martin - who was a treat to see - but the one that impressed me the most was Wilbur Ross! I swear, Kate McKinnon can impersonate anyone!

(4,552 posts)I love her!
And, ya know... I would like to have seen James McAvoy play Tucker. That might have been fun!
Rhiannon12866
(206,758 posts)Any age, gender, she nails them all! And I agree that James McAvoy is great with voices - Tucker wasn't all that recognizable, but the rest of them sure were - especially Wilbur Ross!

(86,939 posts)I noticed she was fighting back a smile a couple times. The skit was funny.
And I really liked Steve Martin's bit.
Rhiannon12866
(206,758 posts)As good as Jeff Sessions, LOL! And I thought Steve Martin was delightful! And it really did take me a minute!

Very very sexy attractive you name it. I mean that not just her looks but she is just Wow. Turns out I don't think I'm her kind.
Jerry pretty clearly had the same feelings - at least that was my take.

Rhiannon12866
(206,758 posts)I do see the resemblance!
Dennis Donovan
(18,770 posts)...but his cone was probably in the back room in 8H somewhere.

(183,019 posts)I didn't know you could impersonate Tucker. Moffat has really does his homework.
I'm like if those shorts with the little whales came to life --- THAT's funny

(63,221 posts)She is one of the most underrated players on SNL. I think she's great at almost everything she does, but she nailed this one!
Rhiannon12866
(206,758 posts)She does not have a voice for television - or public speaking in general! That's what Cecily Strong totally gets! And of course there was her short and painful campaign against my then-senator, Hillary Clinton! Her attempt at just making a speech was so abysmal that she just dropped out!

(63,221 posts)I don't know how anyone can stand to listen to her. She sounds like a complete mental patient at the best of times.
