"Saturday Night Live" wasn't exactly live from New York on Saturday night.
The NBC variety show opened with Tom Hanks greeting a nearly empty studio since the show went without a live audience because of the recent rise in Covid-19 cases.
"Tonight everyone at 'Saturday Night Live' planned to do our big Christmas show ... but Covid came early this year," Hanks said.
