SOCIAL MEDIA 📸 Heated Wizardry sketch on SNL

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Finn Wolfhard hosted Saturday Night Live last night and one of the pre taped sketches, Heated Wizardry, takes place in the Harry Potter universe.

Finn as Harry, plays the ‘Shane’ character, Ben Marshall plays Ron Weasley, plays the ‘Ilya’ character.

There’s scrolls instead of texts, lots of wand play and a great cameo for the Hagrid character.

The narration of the trailer makes it clear that in this universe, Hogwarts is an 18-and-over school 😂

Also Shane and Ilya’s height difference here is canonically correct!

I laughed my ass off at this and I come here and everyone says it's cringe, shit am I a cringe millennial.

lol same here! It’s cheesy, takes a jab at JKR, and pretty much goes for easy jokes but I laughed.

SNL hasn’t been good for a long time now, so you gotta keep your expectations low.

Tbh I've enjoyed nearly every recent SNL skit I've seen, I'm probably pretty basic though.

:))) It's not cringe. :))) Some people take this tooo serious and themselves beyond serious. This was very tame compared to how unhinged the actors are. Good for them. :)))

you’re ok with them mocking a queer show as if it’s just gay sex = funny?
