Julia Louis-Dreyfus on SNL: “I’m Gonna F*ck That Kid” Plus Elaine Benes Returns and Two Major Guest Cameos

Last night Julia Louis-Dreyfus returned to 30 Rock last night to host Saturday Night Live, the show that gave her, her television debut. Louis-Dreyfus didn't get much air time back in the 80's when she was a castmember- the show either wasn't a good fit or show's producers just didn't know how to use her. But everything worked out fine, she went on to become a giant success on shows like Seinfeld, The New Adventures of Old Christine, and Veep. And last night's show was full of winks and nods and outright homages to her lack of success on SNL and gigantic post-SNL career, including visits from Seinfeld's co-creator Larry David, and Veep co-host Tony Hale.

Larry David Smashes Into Bernie Sanders on SNL with “Bern Your Enthusiasm”

We love Larry, but going into Saturday Night Live last night, let's just say we were keeping expectations low. Many of Saturday Night Live's funniest hosts have unfortunately produce some of the show's weakest episodes. So last night we were thrilled to see Larry David kill as the host with some of the funniest sketches of the year. Bonus for the chance to see Larry bring his curmudgeon LD style to some silly characters.
