Saturday Night Live Season 10 Episode 10 Kathleen Turner/John Waite

The Saturday Night Live season 10 episode 10 features host Kathleen Turner and musical guest John Waite. The episode follows the traditional format of the show with a cold open sketch featuring the cast impersonating famous political figures.

The first sketch of the night features Kathleen Turner in a parody of a talk show where she plays a dame trying to become a host. The sketch highlights Turner's versatility as she nails the character's accent and mannerisms. The second sketch follows a couple on their first date as they struggle to communicate with each other due to their heavy accents.

John Waite performs his hit song "Missing You" for his first musical number. The second sketch takes place in a clothing store where Turner plays an overbearing saleswoman who insists on dressing her customers in ways they don't want. This sketch leads to a hilarious wardrobe malfunction where a man's pants split open.

A mock commercial for a video game called "Karate Teen" follows. The game features a teenager who goes on a rampage through the city, attacking anyone who gets in his way. The audience erupts in laughter at the absurdity of the concept.

The show continues with a parody of the TV show "Dynasty," where Turner plays the infamous Alexis Carrington. The sketch is full of betrayals, catfights, and secrets, with the actors playing exaggerated versions of their characters. The sketch is a hit with the audience, despite being a tired trope of the show.

John Waite returns to the stage for his second musical number "Tears."

The show transitions to a parody of the popular game show "Jeopardy." The sketch introduces two new recurring characters: Connery (Sean Connery) and Trebek (Alex Trebek). The sketch takes digs at Trebek's perceived smugness and Connery's overtly sexual humor. The sketch ends with Connery winning the game in a hilarious way.

The final sketch of the night is a parody of the movie "The Verdict," featuring Kathleen Turner in the lead role. The sketch takes jabs at the legal profession with over-the-top courtroom drama and unexpected twists.

The show concludes with a Monologue by Kathleen Turner, where she shares a humorous story about her experience working with Michael Douglas. The show ends with the cast and crew waving goodbye to the audience.

Overall, Saturday Night Live season 10 episode 10 is a hilarious episode that showcases the talents of both Kathleen Turner and John Waite. The sketches are hit-or-miss, but the show's energy remains high throughout the night, leading to a satisfying conclusion.
