Alec Baldwin’s ‘SNL’ Comeback Leaves Viewers Divided: Was It Too Soon?
Alec Baldwin’s unexpected SNL comeback received a very mixed reaction from fans of the iconic sketch show.
As you’re probably aware, a judge recently decided to drop Baldwin’s involuntary manslaughter charges stemming from the 2021 shooting death of Halyna Hutchins on the set of the movie Rust.
As Hutchins’ family mourns the three-year anniversary of that tragedy, the decision to drop the charges against Baldwin remains a source of controversy.

Prior to the Rust shooting, Baldwin spent several years portraying Donald Trump in Saturday Night Live sketches.
After a long hiatus, Baldwin returned to the show for this week’s cold open.
