Roommates, Jim Carrey, Maya Rudolph and Alec Baldwin were in top form last night on the season premiere on NBCs long-running sketch comedy show Saturday Night Live. Jim Carrey finally made his debut as current presidential candidate Joe Biden, while Rudolph and Baldwin returned as Kamala Harris and Donald Trump.
The moment that have fans have been waiting for, ever since it was announced that the legendary Jim Carrey would be portraying Joe Biden, finally arrived. Saturday Night Live returned for its 46th season and they wasted no time tackling the recent presidential debate in the shows opening.
Jim Carreys take on Biden walked out on the debate stage in dark-tinted aviator sunglasses, mugging for the crowd by adjusting his tie and offering finger guns. He then pulled out a tape measure to check the distance between the podiums and pull his back a few inches as needed.
When asked if he was ready to debate, Carreys Biden said, absolutely not but he did have the beginnings of 46 fantastic ideas I may or may not have access to.The debate began with the topic of the Supreme Court, with Alec Baldwins Trump starting things off by instead just listing complaints, such as, People are mean to me. Joe here is very mean; Chris Wallace is mean; the economy is mean it keeps losing jobs, which is mean, to me. And the China virus has been very mean to me in being a hoax. And that statement will probably come back to haunt me later this week.
When it was Carreys Bidens turn to answer the same question, Baldwins Trump interrupted him immediately, to which Carreys Biden responded, No, dont let your inner Whitey Bulger come out. Just flash them all that smile the taught you in anger management. On the topic of Trumps taxes, Baldwin said, The terms law and order are very vague terms, and rules are meant to be broken. Its the same with masks. Ive got mine right here in my pocket. (He then pulled out a thong.) You dont need one all the time. Its like a seatbelt: You just wear it when youre backing out of the driveway and then you can take it off.
Rudolphs Harris showed up after Baldwins Trump started using a laser pointer on Carreys Biden (which he claimed it was a wand that curs the COVID.) She told Baldwins Trump my Joe is a nice boy and needed an apology. She actually got him to apologize and then said, I think if theres one thing we learned tonight, its that America needs a WAP: woman as president. But for now, Ill settle for HVPIC: hot vice president in charge.
The end of the sketch came back around on COVID, though. Carreys Biden literally took out a television remote and paused Baldwins Trump mid-word in order to talk directly to the American people.
