What Was So Funny Addie on Snl
Getty Aidy Bryant
While actor Woody Harrelson was hosting the Season 45 premiere of Saturday Night Live, and a slew of famous celebrities made surprise appearances, including Larry David, Liev Schreiber, and Maya Rudolph, who did a fantastically accurate portrayal of presidential hopeful Kamala Harris, one of the most hilarious moments from the entire show was seeing veteran cast member Aidy Bryan totally break and melt down in tears.
The Shrill star is a dependable comedian, and typically always holds it together, which is why seeing her unable to stifle her laughter was such a wild moment for viewers. Many times, when someone breaks on SNL, it's an inside joke between cast members and the audience is not totally sure what happened. But during the skit, "Inside the Beltway," where Bryant portrayed political TV host Denise Craw, it was clear to everyone what made her start laughing so hard.
In the skit, Aidy was playing along with Harrelson, and fellow cast members Kenan Thompson and Cecily Strong, when a wardrobe assistant suddenly ran onstage mid-sketch. In the spoof political new show, the TV hosts flash back to all the times "Inside the Beltway" believed President Donald Trump would be impeached throughout the years, and the cast would be wearing different clothing during those scenes.
However, before the screen cut to show the next series of flashbacks, a crew member jumps on stage to help Aidy change her jacket, and all the comedian can do is laugh and wave her away. Once the video clips ended, Bryant was unable to keep making her way through the sketch, and watching her try to keep going was absolutely hilarious.
Somehow Bryant managed to eke out her line, "I believe that the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice, after which Strong replied in character, "Well said, Denise," which made even Harrelson start to laugh.
Viewers On Twitter Believed Bryant Breaking Made the Sketch Funnier
Bryant's name quickly started trending on Twitter Saturday evening, with users online sharing the clip and saying it was the best part of the show. Some Twitter comments blamed the snafu on the wardrobe person for not knowing when to stay off screen, while others online believed it must've been the camera operator's fault.
Whatever the reason, one of the major draws of SNL is that it's performed live, rare mistakes happen, and in this particular case, it was really funny.
