NFL on Fox Cold Open - SNL

It's great to see George Santos getting more airtime on SNL. He's such an underrated impressionist.

He's steamed because he wasn't hosting.

[@markmh835]

@@violimo -- I don't know what you mean. George says he hosted SNL more times than anyone in history, plus he was a regular feature player for 3 seasons in the early 2000s. And he was the musical guest 4 times, and played in the SNL band 2 seasons. He is also serves as Lorne's apprentice. Congress is just a side gig.

[@kjamison5951]

It’s great to see George Santos on SNL again, he’s the only member of the 11-time host club. The sketches he wrote for Belushi, Akroyd and Chase are still the funniest contemporary satire in SNL history.

[@valeriebumblebee7607]

I especially loved him in that "more cowbell" sketch. How he managed to play all the roles simultaneously is still beyond me.

I was there when George Santos got five slam dunks in Super Bowl XXVII. Truly an amazing performance I'll never forget.

[@djxycloneofficial899]

Definitely a great moment, but I personally loved when he immortalized his story when he wrote, directed, produced and even starred in hit movie, 'Remember the Titans.' He should have won a Grammy for that, one of the greatest Broadway shows of all time for sure.
