SNL pits The Avengers against Games of Thrones in Family Feud


Saturday Night Live took on the culture on Saturday night.
Instead of parodying Attorney General William Barr's hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee, SNL gave its audience something "everyone can get behind." In an edition of the show's version of Family Feud, Kenan Thompson's Steve Harvey hosted a battle of knowledge between several characters from Marvel's The Avengers and the heroes of the Battle of Winterfell from HBO's Game of Thrones.
Watch the likes of Thanos, Thor, Okoye, and Groot square off using only their minds against Brienne of Tarth, Tormund Giantsbane, Bran Stark, and Melisandre in the world's greatest crossover event below. It was only a matter of time. Tim O'Donnell
