The latest episode of the "Saturday Night Live" will be remembered as the one in which Kate McKinnon's Hillary Clinton was so eager to please, she morphed into Bernie Sanders and Larry David turned up again as Bernie Sanders, too. But Jay Pharaoh's Ben Carson took a beating while trying to endorse Donald Trump (Darrell Hammond).
Host/musical guest Ariana Grande accidentally said "shit" during a song about what scandal she would someday commit. Grande joins the ranks of Justin Timberlake, Paul Simon, Britney Spears, and less than a dozen others, gracefully sidestepped the awkwardness and just said, "We've got a great show!" This episode was also unique in the sense that Ariana brought out feelings of, 'Oh, that person whose music I only thought was okay before is actually funny!"
"It's been a dream of mine to be on this stage since I was a little girl, which was two months ago," she said, before starting to sing a song about wanting to get involved in a real adult scandal. Big points for her imitation of a botox face, and for delivering the line "Pot, Let's smoke some crack, man!" to Pete Davidson.
The opening of the show was in keeping with most of the other episodes this season. David then brought back his Bernie Sanders, urging his supporters not to post so much about him on social media, saying he's "not five-posts-a-day great."
