What to Expect from Bill Burr’s Postelection ‘Saturday Night Live’ Episode

Burr, who is currently on a stand-up tour and will join Kieran Culkin and Bob Odenkirk on Broadway for the spring revival of Glengarry Glen Rosstold The Hollywood Reporter in 2022 that he had no intention of softening any blows. “I wasn’t skating on the edge of anything,” he said. “I said exactly what I thought. (White women) go after these guys and say, ‘You were complicit!’ But weren’t you? Their complaints are louder than people who have it worse, and it’s so damn funny to me.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Burr said his political stance does not exempt the Democratic Party from judgment. “As someone who considers himself a liberal, it’s disappointing to see the left becoming what the right used to be when they went after the Dixie Chicks after they criticized George W. Bush,” he said. “There aren’t many of those kinds of people — most just try not to get into trouble — but there’s this little collection of lunatics — either right or left, at any given time — that causes hysteria.”

Since then, Burr has been doing it coming out against the outspoken Trump ally Elon Musk, but has continued to be critical of liberals likewise. After his wife, Nia Renee Hill, was seen gives Trump the middle finger at a UFC event in 2023, Burr went on to say The Rich Eisen Show, “I love my wife; you know where you stand with (her). The guy walked into the arena. Everyone cheered. She gave him the finger. No one was arrested. That’s why this country is great. Everyone expressed themselves. Can we all be adults?”

In December 2023, before Joe Biden When he stepped down from the presidential race in 2024, Burr rejected the idea of ​​either Biden or Trump as the leader of the country. “I want someone in their 40s, someone who has to live with their decisions,” Burr told Jimmy Kimmel. “With any luck they’ll both die of natural causes before the election and maybe we can get someone who still has something to live for.”

That person turned out not to be Kamala Harris, who made a surprise appearance in last week’s episode of Saturday Night Live along with her on-screen counterpart, Maya Rudolph. It remains to be seen if Rudolph gives Harris a ceremonial send-off on Saturday, which Kate McKinnon did for Hillary Clinton eight years ago. Or what Burr plans to do with an open mic during one of the first major episodes of television after another Trump victory.
