Revisiting six-time host John Mulaney’s New York musical sketch series (which we got an installment of earlier this season), Sunday night’s edition of the skit brought together a bevy of celebrity talent to take former cast members Pete Davidson and David Spade on a journey through NYC over the decades. Starting in the 1970s, Maya Rudolph and Adam Driver showed up as an anthropomorphic Syringe and Hotdog (it’s as crazy as it sounds) singing about how New York just ain’t what it used to be. And it wasn't not much better in the 1980s either, when Mulaney took the audience to a diner where they were greeted by Nathan Lane who sang a parody of “Hakuna Matata” changing the lyrics to “Cocaine and Some Vodka.” The less-than-family-friendly ditty prompted Mulany to quip, “Wow, I bet Disney is going to be psyched!”
Taking the performance into the audience and into the 1990s, Jason Sudekis and Will Forte showed up as the character performers you’d find in Times Square, giving their best Jean Valjean and Jervert before Kristen Wiig entered as “the one character in Times Square who is family friendly but also a prostitute: the Green M&M.” Sauntering through the audience, Wiig gave her best parody version of “I Dreamed a Dream” before Kate McKinnon put the bald cap back on to reprise her iconic impersonation of Rudy Juliani, singing “I AM throwing away my shot,” alongside Lin Manuel Miranda, the very man Kate was parodying.
