In the cold open of the ninth episode of Saturday Night Live's 29th season, President George W. Bush (played by Will Ferrell) addresses the American people from the Oval Office. The fake president talks about the upcoming holiday season, his trip to Iraq, and other hot topics from the news. As always, Ferrell delivers his lines with perfect timing and exaggerated facial expressions, making the audience laugh at every opportunity.

After the show's signature opening credits, Jennifer Aniston takes the stage to host the episode. The Friends star opens with a humorous monologue about her personal life, her acting career, and her recent break-up with then-husband Brad Pitt. Aniston is charming and funny, and the crowd responds well to her jokes.

The first sketch of the night is a parody of the popular TV show Elimidate. In the sketch, Aniston plays a woman looking for love among four very different men. The men are played by SNL cast members Fred Armisen, Will Forte, Seth Meyers, and Kenan Thompson. The sketch pokes fun at the over-the-top antics of reality TV dating shows, and Aniston's comedic timing is spot-on.

Next up is a spoof of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. In the sketch, Aniston plays a woman who wants to transform her grungy, unkempt boyfriend (played by Chris Parnell) into a stylish, sophisticated gentleman. The Fab Five - played by SNL cast members - are eager to help, but the boyfriend is less enthusiastic. The sketch is filled with funny moments, and Aniston's chemistry with Parnell is evident.

The third sketch of the night is a music video featuring the Black Eyed Peas. The popular hip-hop group performs their hit song "Hey Mama" while Aniston dances alongside them. The video is high-energy and visually stunning, with the Black Eyed Peas members each getting their moment in the spotlight. Aniston holds her own in the video, proving that she's not just a talented actress but a natural performer as well.

In a satirical news segment, Weekend Update, co-anchors Tina Fey and Jimmy Fallon deliver hilarious one-liners about current events. They mock the Bush administration, make light of recent scandals, and offer their take on other breaking news stories. This segment is always a highlight of the show, and this episode is no exception.

Following Weekend Update, Aniston appears in a sketch as the famous Disney princess Cinderella. However, this is not your typical fairy tale - in this version of the story, Cinderella is a bit of a gold digger, and the prince is more interested in her money than her heart. The sketch is a tongue-in-cheek interpretation of a classic fairy tale, and Aniston's portrayal of Cinderella is fun and fresh.

The final sketch of the night is a spoof of the reality show The Apprentice. In the sketch, Aniston plays a contestant vying for a job with Donald Trump (played by Darrell Hammond). The other contestants are played by SNL cast members, and the sketch is filled with hilarious moments. Aniston's performance is, once again, pitch-perfect.

The episode ends with Aniston thanking the audience and saying goodbye, while the cast and crew come out to wave. This episode of Saturday Night Live is filled with laughs, clever writing, and standout performances from both Aniston and the SNL regulars. It's a must-watch for any fan of the show or of comedy in general.
