Saturday Night Live came back last night with their second "At Home" episode. Much like the first episode, the latest SNL provided some much-needed joy to people during this dark time. The new episode also featured tons of exciting cameos. Brad Pitt opened the show by playing Anthony Fauci, Adam Sandler teamed up with Pete Davidson for a quarantine rap, Ant-Man star Paul Rudd FaceTimed with his "cousin," and a ton of big names showed up for a new "What's Up With That" sketch. Unsurprisingly, all of these celebrity cameos caused a lot of excitement on Twitter, and SNL ended up being a top trend last night.

Before we get to some of the best tweet reactions, take a look at the show's opening, which featured Pitt as Dr. Fauci. This sketch was especially delightful because Fauci previously joked that should a fictionalized version of himself appear on the live-sketch show, he'd like Pitt to fill the role. You can watch the clip in the tweet below:

Might be the quarantine talking, but watching Jason Sudeikis kicking it in a sweatsuit on #SNL might just save us all.#SNLAtHome pic.twitter.com/TBs6gRi2pp

Solid Point

Brad Pitt playing Fauci on #SNL is only going to make him more of a sex symbol. (Fauci, I mean. But it works both ways.)

Thank You, SNL

I'm a lifelong fan of #SNL & honestly, the quarantine episodes feel like a public service. Knowing the cast + guests are stuck at home like the rest of us (even if those homes are way nicer) & still doing their best to keep everyone laughing..I've never felt more grateful for TV.
