'SNL' Pokes Fun at SAG Halloween Costume Guidelines While Supporting Strike

Saturday Night Live has some hilarious tips to avoid scabbing against the ongoing SAG-AFTRA Strike, poking some lighthearted fun at the guild's guidelines for its members this Halloween. The sketch features SAG-AFTRA president Fran Drescher (Sarah Sherman) teaching us all what Halloween costumes to wear! When host Nate Bargatze and his wife (Ego Nwodim) were handing out candy for Halloween to kids dressed as Spider-Man, Barbie, and Black Panther, Fran stops them to point out that the kids were breaking the no costumes from struck films rule. To be fair, the rule doesn't apply to kids as SAG fortunately clarified, but this is a sketch comedy show. The sketch went on to make a point about how studios could simply "break actors off a piece of that Kit-Kat bar" with their record profits and pay SAF-AFTRA members a fair wage.
