After a long hiatus, "Saturday Night Live" returned with guest host Aubrey Plaza and musical guest Sam Smith. In the 10th episode of Season 48, the NBC sketch comedy show wasted no time in mocking congressman George Santos, the embattled New York Republican who for weeks has generated headlines over false statements about his background. The episode also featured cameos from President Joe Biden and former cast member Amy Poehler. Other cameos included actress Allison Williams, along with Jonathan and Drew Scott, otherwise known as the "Property Brothers," as well as skateboard legend Tony Hawk. German singer Kim Petras joined Smith in the first musical segment and actress Sharon Stone appeared in Smith's second performance.
