So is \u201cSaturday Night Live.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There is just one more episode of the comedy show to go before Election Day on Nov. 3 \u2014 and this week\u2019s penultimate cold open parodying the last presidential debate didn\u2019t change any minds. It was a wash.<\/p>\n<p>The situation had been looking up. Oct. 17\u2019s politics sketch, lampooning the dueling town halls, was a huge leap forward for Season 46\u2019s election satire. The writing had edge \u2014 and clarity \u2014 and Jim Carrey had at last grown accustomed to his role like wearing in a pair of shoes. Unfortunately tonight the blisters came back.<\/p>\n<p>Dead air. Flubbed lines. The physicality of an inflatable man outside of a car dealership. Carrey couldn\u2019t get his act together.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFirst, how does this mute button work? Do I just haul off and slap him in the mouth?,\u201d the actor said. \u201cSNL\u201d has gone loco with the Angry Joe jokes, even though Biden has largely reined in that angst after he threatened to \u201cbeat the hell\u201d out of Trump back in 2018. Voters have forgotten that zestier guy.<\/p>\n<p>After one heated remark, the camera zoomed in on Carrey\u2019s furrowed brow and the <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\">theme<\/a> from \u201cThe Good, The Bad and The Ugly\u201d played.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLooks like Mr. Biden is so mad, he\u2019s Eastwood-ing a little bit,\u201d said moderator Kristen Welker, played by Maya Rudolph.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16508867\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img class=\"size-nypost-large-desktop-uncropped wp-image-16508867 lazyload\" alt=\"Maya Rudolph as moderator Kristen Welker, on SNL\" width=\"662\" height=\"441\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/10\/snl-welker.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=300 300w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/10\/snl-welker.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=640 640w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/10\/snl-welker.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/10\/snl-welker.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=662 662w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 662px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span>Maya Rudolph as moderator Kristen Welker.<\/span><span class=\"credit\">NBC<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>This whole Big Bad Biden bit has never worked, and it never will. If we were to play word associations with Americans, the first thought to pop into their heads when they imagined Biden would not be \u201cScary.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alec Baldwin\u2019s Trump was the usual verbal gobbledygook of boasts and far-flung cultural references, with the voice and facial expressions of a sat-on whoopee cushion. He said \u201cChina\u201d a lot. We get it.<\/p>\n<p>The show continues to lean heavy on an easy gag in which Trump gets names wrong. He called Welker \u201cHoda\u201d and \u201cPadma.\u201d \u201cThank you, Mindy. I love your project,\u201d the actor said. It\u2019s a joke \u201cSNL\u201d has used before with George W. Bush. It\u2019s so old-hat, it should be worn by a pilgrim.<\/p>\n<p>Baldwin\u2019s one funny line was when he confused Welker for a waitress.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re taking really good care of us tonight,\u201d he said. \u201cCould you tell us about the specials, please?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the end \u2014 thank goodness \u2014 Kate McKinnon showed up bald and facing away from the camera, furiously moving her arm up and down.
