MacGruber Coronavirus SNL Will Forte Skit

 Former cast member Will Forte is hosting Saturday Night Live in this season 47 episode 11 show. If you're a fan of his beloved character MacGruber then you will love this new Coronavirus and conspiracy theory inspired skit.

In this sketch MacGruber is trying to diffuse a bomb. He fails but is somehow caught in a time loop where he comes back after each explosion. It seems each time he returns he has become even more entrenched in Alt-Right conspiracy theories.

After the first attempt at disarming the bomb he comes back believing that Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine are the cures for the covid19 he has become infected with.

By the end he has become the QAnon Shaman and is spouting all sorts of nonsense about celebrities eating babies. 

This is a great skit featuring Kristen Wiig and Ryan Phillippe as MacGrubers partners. I can't get enough of this character and I hope we see Will Forte doing many more ofcthese in the coming years.
