Now, with Mulaney finally joining Hader on the SNL stage as Stefon’s own guest, it lends the sense that the character has finally come full circle.
While Bill Hader is the face of Stefon, John Mulaney actually helped create the persona during his time as a Saturday Night Live staff writer, and the Broadway star and Big Mouth voice actor is largely responsible for many of Stefon’s most enduring traits.
One thing to note about John Mulaney’s presence in this Stefon sketch is the fact that he actually has a long-running history with the character.
(Surely he could get us into the club Full Circle, which sets its thermostats at 360 degrees.)
