Aziz Ansari made a surprise return to Saturday Night Live, delivering a brutal satirical take on FBI Director Kash Patel during the cold open of the 2 May episode.
The comedian, who had not appeared on the programme in nearly a decade, portrayed Patel in a mock press briefing on the Iran situation alongside Pete Hegseth, played by Colin Jost. The sketch quickly became the talk of the night, with Ansari's impression highlighting perceived shortcomings in the FBI's leadership under the current administration.
