Comedian John Mulaney made a straight-up triumphant return to Saturday Night Live this weekend, with a ton of great sketches. Some were even left over from when he worked there as a writer for five years, like the lobster diner sendup of Les Mis. But my favorite was “Drag Brunch” (I am a sucker even for a fictional bottomless mimosas). A group of friends go out to get sassed by a drag queen waitress at brunch. While most of the brunch attendees just get some fun shade for stuff like trying to pull off a smokey eye, Mulaney’s drag waitress delivers much darker barbs to Alex Moffat’s Gary, like: “When was the last time someone smiled when you walked into the room?” Turns out, there’s a reason for this brunch persecution, and in all fairness, Gary does seem like a bit of a jerk. But I swear I’m going to be achingly conscious of people’s reactions when I walk into a room from now on. [Gwen Ihnat]

Actually, this is the coolest flight safety video

So last week I mentioned how neat I thought American Airlines’ flight safety video was. Many thanks to Takeout reader cesariojpn for bringing attention to Air New Zealand’s video, which features a number of famous cameos. Okay, this is the one to beat. [Kevin Pang]
