In a sensational turn of events on the latest Saturday Night Live episode aired on February 24, the comedic spotlight brilliantly zeroed in on Tom Sandoval, the Bravoleb from Vanderpump Rules, known for his romantic escapades that have transformed him into a central character of pop culture intrigue.

Sandoval's love life, marked by a headline-grabbing affair with a close friend and fellow cast member Rachel Leviss, has thrust him into the limelight, creating a captivating narrative of its own and all kinds of #Scandoval drama revisited.

The skit comes shortly after Sandoval's interview with The New York Times, where he was reprimanded for his ignorant commentary on the affair, "I’m not a pop-culture historian really,” Sandoval said. “But I witnessed the O.J. Simpson thing and George Floyd and all these big things, which is really weird to compare this to that, I think, but do you think in a weird way it’s a little bit the same?”

The humor-filled narrative unfolded within a clever sketch that deftly sidestepped political undertones, focusing instead on the recent happenings involving the Alabama Supreme Court. In this amusing twist, SNL featured player Marcello Hernandez took the stage during Weekend Update, embodying the persona of a witty "frozen embryo from Alabama," injecting laughter into the ongoing drama surrounding Sandoval.

The embryo quipped, "I don’t got a brain, I don’t got a heart, I’m like Tom Sandoval." This jab not only poked fun at the eccentricities of the Alabama Supreme Court's ruling but also solidified Sandoval's unexpected ascent from reality TV drama to becoming a comedic antihero in the ever-evolving landscape of pop culture. The laughter resonated, weaving a comedic narrative that showcased Sandoval's journey as a character whose romantic exploits have become as enthralling as they are entertaining.

When Colin Jost questioned the embryo if they watched the Bravo reality series, they said, “Of course not. I don’t even have eyes. But even without eyes, I can see that Tom’s a pure narcissist.”

Fan Of View: By throwing Sandoval into this blend of personal scandal and public spectacle, SNL's not just making us laugh; they're painting a bigger picture. It's like they're showing us how our obsession with celeb drama often overshadows more serious issues out there. The whole bit with the "frozen embryo from Alabama" comparing itself to Sandoval? Genius. It's funny, sure, but it's also a nudge about how we prioritize gossip over genuinely impactful news.

Sandoval deserves any of the heat he gets, and a diss from SNL is the ultimate karma. What did you think about the skit? Let us know below by leaving your Fan Of View.
