Episode Overview
Saturday Night Live aired its November 2, 2025, episode live from New York, hosted by actor Miles Teller. The show opened with a comedic take on the upcoming NYC mayoral election, followed by a sketch involving Trump and the Property Brothers.
NYC Mayoral Debate Sketch
The cold open featured a mock debate among candidates Andrew Cuomo (played by Teller), Zohran Mamdani (Ramy Youssef), and Curtis Sliwa (Shane Gillis). Kenan Thompson moderated, asking questions like "Why would you want the worst job in the world?" and "What's your go-to bagel order?" Cuomo boasted about knowing the city intimately, Mamdani used TikTok-style appeals with smiling and hearts, and Sliwa shared exaggerated survival stories, such as being poured into Giants Stadium's foundation. Eric Adams (Kam Patterson) briefly appeared, and James Austin Johnson's Donald Trump interrupted, ordering a "Big Mac with a hole in the middle" as his bagel.
Property Brothers White House Renovation
In another sketch, Teller portrayed both Drew and Jonathan Scott of HGTV's Property Brothers, hired by Trump (Johnson) to add a massive ballroom to the White House. Trump displayed golden urns for his interior design sense and mentioned a budget "between 350 million and infinity," joking about building with enemies' bones and installing an MMA ring. Melania Trump (Chloe Fineman) showed holiday decorations mistaken for Halloween, including skeletons and withered branches. Jonathan clarified his engagement to Zooey Deschanel, correcting the "married the New Girl" reference.
The episode highlighted SNL's tradition of political satire, blending current events with celebrity impressions for humor.
