Ryan Gosling continued his tradition of breaking character on ‘SNL’ … and this time, the entire cast had trouble keeping it together.Ryan hosted ‘SNL’ for the third time Saturday … and just like his previous visits, he struggled to maintain his composure during most of the sketches — much to the delight of the audience.The cold open reunited Gosling with Kate McKinnon for the 3rd installment of their infamous “Close Encounters” skit … where the “Barbie” actor could not keep from laughing as Kate demonstrated how “aliens” had observed Ryan’s character’s privates during their alleged abduction.
Hilarity ensued in a skit with Ryan playing a recently engaged man — alongside his fiancee, played by comedian Chloe Fineman — who’s having 2nd thoughts about marriage.But, the penultimate parody was when the wheels really fell off … during a “Beavis and Butt-Head” spoof costarring Heidi Gardner.Beavis (played by Gosling) and Butt-Head (played by Mikey Day) proved too much for Gardner, causing the seasoned comedian to crack.The last satire of the evening involved Ryan and Fineman recreating a scene from the film “Erin Brockovich.”Chloe played Julia Roberts‘s role of the main character … and Ryan took on the part of her biker boyfriend George.The two broke character multiple times … with the 2024 Best Supporting Actor nominee having to reattach his half-fallen-off mustache mid-sketch.The Kenergy was definitely electric at 30 Rock!
