Carvey revived his iconic character for this week’s cold open, welcoming Ted Cruz (Taran Killam) and Donald Trump (Darrell Hammond) as Church Chat’s special guests.
It’s been several years since Dana Carvey’s Church Lady graced us with her benevolent presence, but Church Chat finally returns to SNL — and not a moment too soon.
With Donald Trump running for president (what a world) and pop culture run amok, we, as a nation, are truly in need of sage wisdom from Carvey’s shrewdly devout Church Lady.
As you’d expect, Church Lady has some thoughts on our current political and cultural landscape, commenting on everything from the aforementioned presidential race / slow-motion horror show to this year’s Met Gala.
