'SNL' addresses musical guest Morgan Wallen getting uninvited from the show with a sketch about him ignoring social distancing

Claudia Willen

This week's episode of NBC's "Saturday Night Live" included a sketch about Morgan Wallen's decision to ignore COVID-19 safety guidelines, which led him to get kicked off the show's roster two months ago.
The country singer, who got a second chance at his "SNL" debut as this week's musical guest, played himself as he kissed women and partied maskless at a bar in Alabama.
Jason Bateman, this week's host, and cast member Bowen Yang visited Wallen as future versions of himself, warning him to leave the bar so that he wouldn't get dropped from the show.
"It's hard to focus on the future, when the present is full of girls. If all you do is kiss all day then you'll miss out on the world," Wallen sang after he received their advice.
He continued: "I thank you in advance for giving this poor Southern boy a second Yankee chance."
