And he had a little help from some familiar faces in the episode \u2013 something he <em>really<\/em> did not want! In his opening monologue, Forte started by complaining about the fact that he was the last of his former castmates who got to host the show, saying:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI was in the cast 12 years ago with Kristen Wiig, Bill Hader, Andy Samberg, Jason Sudeikis and Fred Armisen. So it was really fun to see Kristen host. Yep. And Bill. And then Andy. Then Fred. Then Kristen again. Then Bill again. Then Jason. Seth Meyers! I mean, he\u2019s one of my best buds, right? But, come on. He wasn\u2019t really a sketch guy, he was just on Weekend Update. Does that even count as being on the show? But he hosted, right? John Mulaney was a writer when I was in the cast. And then he hosted four times. Four times! But hey, that\u2019s OK. I\u2019m not bitter about it. I\u2019m not. Saved the best for last, right? My time to shine. Tonight is all about me.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Related: <em>SNL<\/em> Says Report Claiming \u2018Diva\u2019 Pete Davidson Missed Rehearsals For Kim Kardashian Is BS! <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>And that is when <strong>Kristen Wiig<\/strong> suddenly crashed the party and made an <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>earance on the stage. However, <em>The Last Man on Earth<\/em> alum wasn\u2019t exactly thrilled about the reunion! After Wiig expressed that she was so excited to see him, Forte pretty much dismissed her and told her to leave. Ouch! But when she left the stage, showrunner <strong>Lorne Michaels<\/strong> then came out to say there may have been a scheduling error since <strong>Willem Dafoe<\/strong> thought it was his week. Yikes!

As fans know, the character was first created on <em>SNL as<\/em> a parody of <em>MacGyver<\/em>, then went on to have a movie, and then television <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> on <strong>Peacock<\/strong>. And he returned not once, not twice, but three times last night! The first sketch saw Forte, Wiig, and <strong>Ryan Phillippe<\/strong> all decked out in masks attempting to defuse a bomb inside the sealed vault of a bank. However, he got a little distracted by spreading some COVID-19 misinformation. He declares:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cNow both of you, hand me your masks! No time to explain, masks now!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>When Wiig\u2019s Vicki St. Elmo asks what Forte\u2019s MacGruber is doing, he fired back:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cFreeing us from tyranny, Vick. You\u2019re welcome!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In the second sketch, MacGruber has learned from his mistakes and is now \u201cfollowing the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/sciencee\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"5\" title=\"Science\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">science<\/a>\u201d \u2013 but this really means listening to conspiracy theories and consuming things like dewormer and hydroxychloroquine. Everything escalates when the third sketch sees MacGruber dressed as the <strong>QAnon Shaman<\/strong>, ranting about how Hollywood celebrities are eating babies.
