Saturday Night Live reacts to the Try Guys controversy Details here
The Try Guys put in enough effort to earn a slot this weekend on "Saturday Night Live." In a comedy that also poked fun at the Try Guys' online controversies, "Saturday Night Live" imitated the final three Try Guys.
According to a statement posted last week on the official Try Guys Instagram account, Ned Fulmer was dismissed by famous YouTube stars after an internal review of his consensual workplace relationship. This was brought on by the NBC comedy institution in the first post-monologue sarcastic comment. "SNL" became aware of the commotion surrounding the former Buzzfeed stars after Fulmer left.

In a comedy that initially seemed political, Brendan Gleeson, the host, and cast member Ego Nwodim represented a CNN correspondent and host, respectively.

No longer working with Ned FulmerOn 'SNL', Bowen Yang, Andrew Dismukes, and Mikey Day portrayed Keith Habersberger, Eugene Lee Yang, and Zach Kornfeld. A Caucasian husband and parent named Guy Ned might be able to help; he used to interrupt CNN reports frequently, but that is no longer an issue.

Nwodim's CNN host was likely uninformed of the controversy or knew nothing about the Try Guys, like many others who heard the Try Guy tale this week.
