‘Saturday Night Live' Welcomed Dua Lipa and Jerry Seinfeld

A recent episode of ‘Saturday Night Live’ featured a fake commercial mocking a penne alla vodka dish. The episode was hosted by Dua Lipa, who also performed as the musical guest. The opening sketch satirized cable TV public affairs shows and involved parents of college students discussing protests against the Israeli offensive in Gaza. The sketch highlighted the parents’ conflicting emotions as they grappled with their children’s involvement in the protests. The episode also surprised viewers with a guest appearance by Jerry Seinfeld during Weekend Update. Overall, the episode left a mixed impression, much like the mediocre penne alla vodka dish in the commercial parody.
