Here comes an early highlight for 2025! Sunday’s “SNL50: The Anniversary Special” delivered another Kate McKinnon-led alien abduction sketch, with some especially big names making a surprise appearance. The sketch included Woody Harrelson and Pedro Pascal, who got abducted by the aliens with McKinnon, but describe a much more pleasant experience. They are questioned by military officials Jon Hamm and Aidy Bryant. Meryl Streep entered the scene as McKinnon’s character Colleen Rafferty’s mother, wearing an outfit similar to Colleen’s signature pastel Hawaiian shirt, complete with a cigarette in one hand and a styrofoam cup in the other. Colleen Senior describes her own X-rated alien abduction, going on to mention how the aliens “lost interest” and stuffed her in a closet. Pictures from the celebration’s arrivals, show and screencaptures have been added to the photo gallery. The sketch can be watched in the video archive.
