Last night Bowen Yang played the Titanic iceberg in a surreal interview sequence with Weekend Update‘s Colin Jost. Essentially a riff on social-media egotism and 21st Century delusions of grandeur, it was, is and always will be one of the funniest, most brilliant routines performed on Saturday Night Live this century….hell, ever. Yang, 30, has been authentically touched by the right kind of madness.
Not to mention those two Carey Mulligan routines that actually worked — irritable bowel syndrome and the 19th Century seaside lesbian romance parody (which translated, whether SNL intended it or not, into a little bit of a “tough shit, Winslet…too little and too late!”).
