"During the show, hosted by Parks and Recreation's Poehler, the pre-taped sketch offered a steamy take on the forthcoming second season of the murder mystery that follows the lesbian affairs of wives of unsuspecting MAGA-loving, gun-toting men. Shot like a fake trailer, SNL label it "the straight but lesbian horny Republican murder drama". The sketch began with Margo, played here by Poehler, flashing her (blurred) breasts at Chloe Fineman's rendition of Sophie."
"'All your faves are back and they're as naughty as ever,' a narrator said. 'Thighs will be squeezed, guns will be drawn... People magazine said that The Hunting Wives was like Call Me By Your Name for women who shop at Bass Pro Shop.' Fans were quick to respond online. One person wrote: ''It's like if The L Word took place in Yellowstone.' Someone else said: 'Exactly how I want season two to go.'"
"Then Agatha All Along star Plaza showed up and all the attention turned to her... until she mentioned she had a girlfriend - prompting the women to pull out their guns. It seems the original cast of The Hunting Wives loved the spoof. Malin Akerman, who plays Margo, reposted the clip on Instagram, writing: 'This is the best thing I've ever seen.' Commenting on the repost, Brittany Snow, who plays Sophie, said: 'I'm so glad SNL got hold of our deleted scenes.'"
