For the second episode of Saturday Night Liveโs At Home series, Kenan Thompson took on the role of Diondre Cole, host of the showโs recurring sketch โWhatโs Up With That.โ
In this edition, Thompson was joined by guests DJ Khaled, Charles Barkley, and Lindsey Buckingham (Bill Hader), as well as Thompsonโs SNL crew Ego Nwodim, Melissa Villaseรฑor, Jason Sudeikis, Fred Armisen, Cecily Strong, and Mikey Day.
Cole kicks off his show with its theme song, also titled โWhatโs Up With That,โ before introducing his guests. Barkleyโs able to squeeze in a few sentences about his involvement in the Michael Jordan documentary The Last Dance, but per usual, Cole repeatedly reprises the theme song. Khaled barely says anything except his catchphrase, โanother oneโ at the end of the show. And of course, Buckingham never gets a chance to talk.
For this weekendโs episode, Brad Pitt delivered the opening monologueย as Dr. Anthony Fauci, where he cleared up some misconceptions about COVID-19. Pete Davidson also shared a new music video, โStuck in the House,โ which featured his momโs home, Adam Sandler, and Rob Schneider. For the first At Home episode on April 11, Tom Hanks gave the cold open.
