Adam Driver Delivers Holiday Hilarity on Saturday Night Live

The actor's fourth hosting stint on the show was filled with comedic intensity, offering a unique twist on holiday cheer.

  • Adam Driver hosted Saturday Night Live for the fourth time, delivering a performance filled with holiday-themed sketches.
  • Driver's performance was praised for his comedic timing and ability to fully commit to each character, regardless of the absurdity of the sketch.
  • Highlights of the episode included a sketch where Driver and Andrew Dismukes played mustachioed suburbanites in a standoff, and another where Driver played a creepy baby with full command of vocabulary on his first airplane ride.
  • Driver's opening monologue, where he relayed his Christmas wish list to Santa while playing the piano, was noted for its blend of silliness, sexiness, and intelligence.
  • Despite the holiday theme, Driver's performance offered a dose of creepiness as a welcome antidote to saccharine festiveness.
