“Dana Carvey’s Church Lady Delivers Hilarious Satirical Take on Current Events on ‘Saturday Night Live'”
The iconic Church Lady character, played by Dana Carvey, made a triumphant return to “Saturday Night Live” with a hilarious opening sketch that poked fun at some of the most controversial figures of the year. The Church Lady welcomed a parade of “sinners” to her talk show, including Sarah Sherman as Matt Gaetz, David Spade as Hunter Biden, and Marcello Hernandez as baseball free agent Juan Soto, representing what she dubbed as the “most Satanic year in history.”
As the Church Lady grilled Matt Gaetz about his recent scandals, she quipped, “Are you okay, Matt? You look a little surprised to be here.” Gaetz, played by Sherman, replied, “No, this is just how my face is.” The Church Lady didn’t hold back, questioning Gaetz about his alleged sexual peccadillos and the conveniently missing report on the matter.
The witty banter continued as the Church Lady urged Gaetz to repent with only 17 days left until Christmas. Gaetz, played by Sherman, humorously replied, “You had me at 17!” The Church Lady then welcomed David Spade as Hunter Biden to the show, teasing him about his recent controversies and pardon.
Throughout the sketch, the Church Lady’s sharp wit and satirical commentary kept the audience entertained as she tackled the latest headlines with her signature humor. The segment concluded with a musical exit featuring Carvey and the Church Chat singers singing about how “Satan had a good year.”
In upcoming episodes of “Saturday Night Live,” viewers can look forward to actor Paul Mescal hosting the show, with musical guest Shaboozey. The Church Lady’s hilarious antics and timely commentary continue to be a highlight of the long-running sketch show.
