Saturday Night Live pulled out all the stops for its big season finale last night, the final episode with cast members Bobby Moyhnihan, Vanessa Bayer, and Sasheer Zamata. Katy Perry was the musical guest, and after performing "Swish Swish" with drag queens and Russell Got Barzz but without Nicki Minaj, she brought Migos to the stage to help her recreate her "Bon Appétit" video. The Dwayne Johnson-hosted episode also offered a funhouse version of Kate McKinnon's post-election "Hallelujah" cold open, with Alec Baldwin as Donald Trump singing while members of his family and administration, including Scarlett Johansson as Ivanka, joined in. And perhaps most importantly, the episode featured the return of Tom Hanks' David S. Pumpkins in "Rap Song," a sketch about a rap song with an interminable list of guest features. Watch it all go down below.
