In a recent episode of “Saturday Night Live,” the comedic talents of cast member Marcello Hernández were on full display as he delivered a hilarious impression of renowned stand-up comic Sebastian Maniscalco. The sketch revolved around a bachelor party, with host Glen Powell portraying the groom-to-be who claims a friendship with Maniscalco and insists that the celebrated comic will be stopping by for a surprise appearance.
As the scene unfolded, Powell’s character attempted to downplay expectations, assuring his friends that Maniscalco is “nothing like what you’ve seen on TV.” However, the moment Hernández burst into the scene, he embodied Maniscalco’s familiar quirks and animated storytelling style, effectively proving the groom wrong.
Hernández fully leaned into the character, utilizing exaggerated gestures and a raspy Italian accent to recount a story about a particularly frustrating traffic jam, which he claimed was “on another level.” This was just the beginning of the chaos, as Hernández’s take on Maniscalco transitioned into a comedic critique of the classic board game Twister. In a fit of physical comedy, he vividly reenacted a disastrous experience with the game, shouting, “And my hand is in my rectum!” prompting laughter from the party guests—who clearly struggled to maintain their festivities amidst his antics.
The sketch highlighted Hernández’s talent for channeling Maniscalco’s high-energy style, bringing a unique blend of humor and relatability to the bachelor party scenario. Viewers can catch a clip from this memorable sketch on “SNL’s” official social media channels, prompting many to weigh in on the episode with their own assessments.
