On the fourth episode of season 37, actress Anna Faris hosted alongside musical guest Drake. The two brought their comedic talents to the iconic Saturday Night Live stage and entertained audiences with a hilarious and unforgettable episode.
Faris, known for her comedic roles in films such as "The House Bunny" and "Scary Movie," proved to be a fitting host for SNL with her impeccable timing and over-the-top characters.

The musical guest delivered several electrifying performances throughout the episode, showcasing his talent as a performer. Fans couldn't get enough of Drake's infectious energy and enthusiasm, making this episode one for the books.
In addition to Faris' memorable political sketch, the episode had multiple standout sketches that kept audiences engaged and laughing throughout. One sketch, titled "Michael Phelps Diet," poked fun at the athlete's reported 12,000 calorie diet, hilariously exaggerating just how much food the swimmer consumes on a daily basis. The sketch also featured Faris, who played a fast-food worker who can't keep up with Phelps' orders.
Another highlight of the episode was a sketch titled "Monologue Rehearsal." The sketch featured cast member Vanessa Bayer, who struggles to stay focused during the monologue rehearsals with Faris. Bayer constantly interrupts Faris with her own jokes and tangents, stealing the show with her comedic timing and delivery.
Overall, the fourth episode of season 37 was a hit with audiences. With Faris' exceptional hosting skills and Drake's energetic musical numbers, the duo delivered an unforgettable episode of Saturday Night Live.
