If you are one of the millions who have been religiously listening to Serial, this sketch from Saturday Night Live is going to be one of the best things you’ll see all week.
Delivering an absolutely flawless performance as host Sarah Koenig, SNL’s Cecily Strong anchors this incredible parody of the ubiquitous podcast, which wrapped up its memorable first season this past Thursday. Instead of detailing the story of a murder from 1999, the new version talks about the mystery behind a man named “Chris,” who manages to deliver presents all around the world in just one night with little explanation beyond “magic” of both the Christmas and Reindeer variety.
The impressions are all amazing, from Strong as Koenig to the man on the phone to Aidy Bryant as the defense attorney. While there have already been several Serial parodies produced, this one has to be considered the best to date.
And what about the Nisha call?
