Kristen Wiig Brought Her A-Game to the SNL Monologue, and I'm Still Laughing.
Saturday Night Live's season 45 finale kicked off with an opening monologue from none other than Kristen Wiig. For the,
show's third at-home episode, Kristen rolled out of bed, slipped on some sequins, and flashed the camera before launching into a full dance sequence. Things quieted down as she sent her mom some well wishes and sang — er, belted — a lullaby.
Live tapings of SNL shut down because of the coronavirus pandemic, but the show returned with its first-ever "SNL At Home" edition on April 11, when Tom Hanks,
opened with a monologue delivered from his kitchen. Since then, the writers have gotten creative with their skits as cast members and celebrity guests film remotely. Brad Pitt transformed into Dr.
Anthony Fauci for the latest episode, which also included a hilarious Kate McKinnon sketch starring her cat as a coworker, plus a memorable performance from Miley Cyrus.
