Saturday Night Live had a big challenge this week, in how to respond to the surprise election of Donald Trump. Like much of America, it was fairly clear that
SNL thought Hillary would win it, and actress Kate McKinnon probably saw some fairly good job security in that. But, lamentably (except for comedy), Trump improbably won. Unfortunately, tragedy+time=comedy, and it's
too soon for an awful lot of people. So, how to open the show, one that for
every new episode featured McKinnon as Hillary and Alec Baldwin as Donald Trump?
This was their answer, incorporating a tribute to the late Leonard Cohen, and his classic song,
Hallelujah. I'll go out on a limb, and predict an Emmy for McKinnon. And for the record, Baldwin has stated that he doesn't wish to play Trump in the future. Which isn't surprising, though if Trump becomes more comedy than tragedy down the line, I'd expect a repeat performance.
A reason to write... If nothing else.
