Melissa McCarthy surprised 'Saturday Night Live' viewers on February 4 with a delightfully strung-out impression of White House press secretary Sean Spicer.
Trump cabinet picks have been bad, but not Breaking Bad, at least until now. The SNL cold open for John Cena’s debut hour got Bryan Cranston reprising his iconic role as Walter White, tapped to head the DEA (what else) in the new administration.
We’ve already got on our dancing shoes for La La Land star Emma Stone to make her SNL return this weekend with musical guest Shawn Mendes, but what of the other December slots? Studio 8H may need to widen its doorways, as John Cena has now booked his SNL debut, with Manchester By the Sea star Casey Affleck closing out 2016.
SNL was bound to tackle Westworld eventually, but like the series itself, we’d need a good twist in the process. See how the mundanity of reporting on Trump scandals takes a trip out West when SNL tackles Anderson Cooper 360 in Kristen Wiig’s return episode.
Kate McKinnon ended the election coverage of 'Saturday Night Live' on a sensitive note with a moving tribute to Hillary Clinton and the late Leonard Cohen.

Jack Donaghy himself, Alec Baldwin will take over the role of Donald Trump, with the first debate promo already online.
