SNL plays Where in the world is Kellyanne Conway? — but no one wants to find her


Saturday Night Live served up a nostalgic recreation of Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?, but the famous red trenchcoat and hat were handed over to White House counselor Kellyanne Conway, who has dramatically cut back her once-aggressive television appearance schedule.
"She used to be on TV and, like, every single channel," explains the modified theme song, sung by a lineup helmed by host Chris Pine. "One day we woke up and she was no longer there."
Two show contestants arrive to be this episode's gumshoes, but it turns out the kids are actually cool with Conway staying gone. "Okay, well, that's our show," concludes Acme Senior Agent Greg Lee (Mikey Day). "Seven weeks in a row and nobody wants to find that woman." Watch the full skit below. Bonnie Kristian
