SNL Video: Pete Davidson’s Marvel TV Star Is Super Mortified
The Internet is a great place to get to know celebrities and how down to earth they are. But, Saturday Night Live knows that sometimes they can be a little too down to earth?
Pete Davidson returned this week to host after leaving the show in 2022 and got a chance to show off a little more acting range than he showed during his first run on SNL.
Wired Autocomplete Interview is a parody of a popular YouTube show of the same name. It’s a good place for famous people to show that they can be fun and self-effacing. Davidson along with Ego Nwodim, Mikey Day, Chloe Fineman, and Marcello Hernandez play the cast of a fictitious Marvel/Disney+ show called Stark Labs.
Most of the questions are pretty standard: Does this actor have any tattoos? How tall is this actor? But all of the questions for Davidson’s actor are about an incident when he pooped in his seat on a Delta flight. As the scene continues, we find out that it was so bad that it ran into the aisle, made the oxygen masks deploy, and caused an entirely new chronic ailment: diarrhea lung.
Is it the classiest sketch of all time? Nope. But watching Davidson slowly shed his aw-shucks mannerisms as he’s confronted with worse and worse revelations of the most embarrassing day of his life is a delight. In the end, he’s forced to throw his co-star under the bus, as anybody who’s had to start their own children’s charity to cure a disease they created would do

The funniest skit of the night was the Please Don’t Destroy guys flashback video to being child def jam comics. I don’t always love them but that was hilarious!
I tend to have a pretty dark sense of humor but found myself feeling sympathy for the real-life person this happened to last month while watching this. It’s hard to imagine a more mortifying thing that could happen to a person. And now they get to see it dredged up and immortalized on SNL
