November 5, 2025Apparently last week’s dress rehearsal featured a survivor parody in the cold open that was cut. Did anyone see this?
The Survivor thing wasn’t a huge part of the cold open. They were parodying how Trump’s speech interrupted the Survivor finale, so the joke was that he cut in right as Mikey was about to announce the winner. It cuts back to Survivor briefly after the winner was revealed and Mikey says something like, “that was a great finale, would’ve hated to miss that,” and then Trump interrupts again. There were lit tiki torches involved. That’s about all I remember. Anyone else remember more? More on reddit.com

Trump’s Christmas Threats Against Santa & Epstein File Redactions Provide Lukewarm Results For ‘SNL’s Last Cold Open Of 2025
1 month ago - Nowhere near as good as the open for the Melissa McCarthy-hosted December 6 show (more Colin Jost as Pete Hegseth, please Lorne), tonight’s cold open had the feel of being crashed together and missing the moment — much like Trump’s recent much hyped and underwhelming speech. Still, tonight was not just MVP Yang’s last show, but the last show of a rockin’ 2025 for SNL. Taking a couple of weeks off for Christmas and New Year’s, the NBC late-nighter will return in January.
