"Let me show them!!"
"It's not finished you childish shrew!!"

*Meanwhile, the painting is fully facing Chloe and Andrew lmao*

[mattier.]

Cecily looks fantastic in this era of costume - and she is a talented woman. Love the chemistry between Jake and Strong.

[christianmistian]

“You started this the day we met” “the day the sun went out!” 😂😂😂😂 definitely using this line in that exact voice

[batgurrl]

Fantastic parody of Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf. Cecily did an excellent job of channeling Elizabeth Taylor. Makes me want to watch the actual movie again.

[CuriousGoodsJessica]

Cecily looks so beautiful in every era they make her up into, and then she kills it looking like Cathy Anne, she's so great! And singing too, love her!

[TheNikuman]

Cecily is the freaking queen. So good in everything she does.

[BobbySacamano]

As silly and ridiculous as it was, the reveal of the first piece of "art" actually cracked me up. And I kind of want the last one, now that it's finished.

[BladeBlur]

Man the moment Cecily is leaving the show I'm going to be real sad because man she is quite the MVP.

[GregorBarclay]

“Photos are art too” deserved at least half a laugh

[jewelj]

Fab. That cardigan looks like an exact replica of the one Burton wore in the movie. And the glasses too! Cecile does a great impression of Liz Taylor- including cleavage! Ha! Who’s afraid of Virginia Woolf? Loved it

[bellaf]

"Thank you professor Williams and your wife Vanessa Williams"🤣😂 his delivery is so funny

[kengeorgejones]

The hottest, hammiest adaptation of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf around.

[brinsonopinion]

I am really surprised at how deeply & consistently Gyllenhall committed here. And Cecily Strong's "Elizabeth Taylor doing American Accent" is I mean I'm really impressed, she hits all of ET's beautifully odd intonations LOL!

[mshahnazi]

Great job by Cecily and Jake. I had to go and watch "Who's afraid of Virginia Wolfe?", and was awed by how closely they portrayed Elizabeth Taylor and the great Richard Burton. Cecily is pure Gold and her talent is exceptional.

[hughmcaloon]

Gotta love it when Cecily so clearly enjoys being in a sketch.

[abeniang]

How is no one picking up on the "too dark" being pronounced "too dog" lmao 3:40

[bernlin]

"Sit down or I will sit you down" this sketch wins just for these awesome line deliveries. Cecily is genuinely one of the best "support players" in the history of SNL. Always makes the host look better.

[marty]

Jake and Cecily’s acting is really good. She does an amazing Elizabeth Taylor.

[CamberGreber]

Cecily's run on SNL is legendary.

[DARWINZOO]

What a great switch from the pretend son they never had, "we were going to have one of them" to the conceit of the art.
Excellent reproduction of set design.
Jake really picks up some iconic Burton faces. Great eyes, too.
