Woody Harrelson SNL

Woody Harrelson delivers the least funny SNL monologue in ages, indicating the bad vibes for the rest of the show. A recap and review of season 48, ...

[introducing musical guest Jack White for the first time](https://youtu.be/OHp_h7RLfAU), is another hint that something went awry during the opening monologue. [ nosy prison guards](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nlKXYzYqxXY&list=PLS_gQd8UB-hKSlk9HSpAn8Cf3OZQN44Eb&index=3) who continue to be nosy, the guy who intermittently [ passes out during a theme park ride](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLRIUeNX7pk&list=PLS_gQd8UB-hKSlk9HSpAn8Cf3OZQN44Eb&index=4) and keeps doing so, the mother who is [ creepily enamored with her son](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OXq0rM_1VHk&list=PLS_gQd8UB-hKSlk9HSpAn8Cf3OZQN44Eb&index=8) and remains as such, and so forth. [ actually works](https://www.cologuard.com/using-and-returning-your-cologuard-kit), it sure seems weird that the anthropomorphic boxes from [ those commercials](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHo7mK6mcQQ) are so chipper. Every fresh detail here is funnier than the last, especially Thomas the box’s preferred word for defecation: “unleash.” Also, as much as I dragged the monologue’s overdependence on Harrelson’s prodigious weed use, the meta-joke about it at the end of this sketch is a perfect grace note to end on. Harrelson has a right to [ his opinions](https://nypost.com/2020/04/05/woody-harrelson-sharing-coronavirus-conspiracy-theory-tied-to-5g/), but it’s neither a defense of Big Pharma nor liberal priggishness to suggest that this bizarre and unfunny polemic should have been left out of the show. Che and Jost both deliver some of their jokes with genuine surprise and delight, like they’d either never seen them before or the jokes had been tweaked since they last saw them. In a morass of sketches that miss the mark, the most consistently entertaining part of this episode was the succession of goofy wigs Harrelson donned throughout the night. Harrelson has been a reliably funny presence in film and television for over 35 years, and the episode had nowhere to go but up. In any case, things got off to a rocky start with the fifth-time host emerging, arms akimbo, alluding to an imminent [ induction into the Five-Timers Club](https://www.vulture.com/2022/02/john-mulaney-gets-inducted-into-snls-five-timers-club.html) that didn’t happen. It would be a little funny if, in this sketch, Martin Herlihy and John Higgins were simply dating each other and excluding Ben Marshall from post-work hangs. This week’s episode, though, had the least funny and most discomfiting monologue in ages, which proved to be a prescient indicator of things to come. Post-monologue, the odds were still in the show’s favor.

Harrelson and Johansson – who is married to “SNL” cast member Colin Jost – are currently filming a movie together, titled “Project Artemis” costarring Channing Tatum. Finally, at the end of the show, Scarlett Johansson came onstage to give him a jacket, thereby welcoming Harrelson to join the ranks of “SNL” five-timers.

During his Saturday Night Live monologue, Woody Harrelson led with a rambling joke about COVID-19 mandates and conspiracy theories.

He went on to espouse that using masks would result in breathing in higher rates of carbon monoxide, that U.S. The Hollywood Reporter has reached out to reps for Saturday Night Live for comment. I mean, who was going to believe that crazy idea?” he added. “So the movie goes like this,” he began. “The last time I did SNL was around Thanksgiving 2019, three years ago, and you will not believe what happened after the show,” he recalled. The joke began with Harrelson recounting how his last time hosting was right before the global pandemic kicked off a series of lockdown measures, along with corresponding vaccine and mask mandates to prevent the virus’ spread. “The next day was a Sunday as it always is the day after I do Saturday Night Live. 25 episode, the Champions star kicked off NBC variety show’s return with a winding joke that took on COVID-19 mandates and conspiracy theories. I do that voluntarily all day.” “The biggest drug cartels in the world get together and buy up all the media and all the politicians and force all the people in the world to stay locked in their home. Anyways, I went walking in the greatest part of this city, Central Park — laid against the tree and started to read the craziest script.”

Woody Harrelson hilariously showcased his musical chops -- to the tune of Adele -- during "Saturday Night Live" on Feb. 25, 2023.

“Chicken, chicken, chicken,” he joyfully croons. “Eatin’ all the chicken in my house.” [10 weeks atop](https://www.billboard.com/pro/adele-hello-hot-100-10th-week-twenty-one-pilots-top-10/) the [Billboard Hot 100 chart](https://www.billboard.com/charts/hot-100/) in 2015.

Harrelson suggests they stake out the house to figure out what’s going on, and they find out that the guys are together — and they have children. Harrelson and his crew remain stoic and committed as they discuss the ridiculous new name, including how to pronounce the ASDFGHJKL;6969. It turns out the Cologuard boxes are anthropomorphic, creepy, and hound Harrelson relentlessly. Harrelson also recently starred in the dramedy “Triangle of Sadness.” But the prison guards (Ego Nwodim and Kenan Thompson) know that Fineman and Harrelson’s characters are telling each other stories. Other members of the five-timers club include Tom Hanks, Danny Devito, Bill Murray, and Scarlett Johanson.

Woody Harrelson divided 'Saturday Night Live' viewers over a bizarre monologue that was seemingly spreading anti-vax conspiracies.

“It’s such an incredibly selfish & privileged position, the anti-vax, anti-lockdown, covid conspiracy one. [shared](https://twitter.com/HollHox/status/1629787722406666240?s=20).

After Woody Harrelson referenced an anti-vax conspiracy theory in his Saturday Night Live monologue, Elon Musk praised the show.

[Musk commented](https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1629734523255545856?s=20) on a video of the monologue, before retweeting it to his own page with [the praise](https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1629746474496999427?s=20), “So based.

[COVID-19 to 5G](https://www.gq.com/story/coronavirus-5g-conspiracy-theory-explained). “Maybe they don’t realize that their propaganda is wrong?” Musk [tweeted](https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1629748345148174336?s=20) about the outlets. And Harrelson is no stranger to those: early in the pandemic, he posted and deleted from his Instagram a conspiracy theory connecting When it comes to anti-vaccination conspiracy theories, Musk’s support probably says more about him than the person spouting it.

Harrelson raised eyebrows after saying Big Pharma bribed politicians and the media to force the country into lockdown during the coronavirus pandemic.

He also said in Vanity Fair he didn't believe face masks work to limit the spread of COVID. But the FDA said they are not shown to be safe or effective in the treatment of COVID. It's obscene the profit they've made." "What does the government actually do to help you? Harrelson said he "threw the script away," adding: "I mean, who was gonna believe that crazy idea? Those people all got to get taken care of."

Harrelson, who hosted for the fifth time on Saturday, worked in a joke during his monologue that repeated a pandemic plot favored by vaccination opponents.
