SNL fans want Steve Martin to play Tim Walz and they're absolutely right
We know this much: Maya Rudolph is reportedly returning to play VP Kamala Harris on Saturday Night Live this fall during election season, which is great news.
But now that we know who her pick is for a running mate -- Minnesota governor Tim Walz, who used to be a football coach -- who should play him on SNL?
There are a few names I saw thrown around on Tuesday after the announcement, but the one that stuck out was ... Steve Martin! Makes a lot of sense, doesn't it? It's not just the white hair, either.
Here's a roundup of folks who agree:
