'I've got Palin, Chachi and the best Baldwin brother, Stephen': Alec Baldwin and Tom Hanks ridicule the presidential debate on SNL 

• e-mail

The final presidential debate was a gold mine for Alec Baldwin and Kate McKinnon, who brought back their portrayals of Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump to SNL.

Baldwin and McKinnon have won rave reviews for their impressions of the candidates, but Baldwin made sure to hit out at one recent vocal critic. 

Speaking to host Tom Hanks, who played moderator Chris Wallace, Baldwin's Trump began to boast about all the 'heavy hitters' supporting him. 

'I've got Sarah Palin, I've got Chachi,' he said, referring to Scott Baio's character from Happy Days. 'And I've even got the best Baldwin brother - Stephen Baldwin.' 

Baldwin's youngest brother said after the debate on Wednesday that he found Alec's impression to be 'not very funny' and 'a little too nasty right now'.

The final presidential debate was a goldmine for Alec Baldwin and Kate McKinnon, who brought back their portrayals of Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump to Saturday Night Live 

Tom Hanks, the episode's host, gave his best impression of Fox News anchor Chris Wallace, who moderated the debate 

But that didn't stop Baldwin and McKinnon from getting major laughs from the audience - and praise on Twitter - for their performance during Saturday's episode. 

Hanks kicks off the cold open by comparing the debate to the third Lord of the Rings movie. 

'You don't really want to watch, but hey, you've come this far,' he says.

McKinnon then takes the podium, saying: 'In the first debate, I set the table. In the second debate, I fired up the grill. And tonight, I feast.'

She then hungrily holds up two knives, as Baldwin's Trump promises he will be 'sweet little baby Trump' for the next hour and a half.

The skit came not long after Trump in real life threatened to sue the women who have accused him of sexual assault.

Their number rose to 11 on Saturday, when adult film actress Jessica Drake said grabbed her and two other women in a tight hug and kissed them without their permission.

In Saturday's episode, Hanks' Wallace begins the debate, saying the first question will be about reproductive rights.

'They're ripping babies out of vaginas!' Baldwin screams, as McKinnon's Clinton jokes his face 'is birth control'. 

As the conversation moves on to immigration, Baldwin references one of his most hashtagged phrases from the night - 'bad hombres'. 

'Oh, bingo, bingo, I got bingo!' McKinnon suddenly screams, 'I've been playing all year and I got it.' 

McKinnon's Hillary started off the sketch: 'In the first debate, I set the table. In the second debate, I fired up the grill. And tonight, I feast,' she said, hungrily holding up two knives 

Hanks' Wallace then begins the debate, saying the first question will be about reproductive rights - causing Trump to scream: 'They're ripping babies out of vaginas!'

She then holds up a large Bingo card, with squares reading 'Bad hombres, rapists, miss piggy, they're all living in hell, if she wasn't my daughter' circled in red. 

Trump then argues that he has a 'fantastic relationship' with the Mexican president, whose name he forgets. 

'I think it was something like Mr Guacamole,' he says 'I'm sorry, excuse me. Senor guacamole. I also met his beautiful wife taquito. And their twin children chips and salsa.' 

Hanks' Wallace then tries to get Clinton to ask about the campaign emails recently been leaked by Wikileaks.

'Thank you for bringing up my emails, Chris,' she begins. 'And I'm very happy to clarify what was in some of them. Sorry, what, Carol? What?' 

'I'm sorry, I thought I heard my friend Carol,' she continues. 'Anyway, back to your question about the way Donald treats women.' 

As the audience bursts into laughter McKinnon does a little dance move before adding victoriously: 'And that is how you pivot.' 

'So you're just never going to answer a question about your emails,' Wallace asks. 

'No, but it was very cute to watch you try,' she replies. 

As the conversation moves on to immigration, Baldwin references the now infamous 'bad hombres' phrase, with Clinton revealing it was the last one she needed for 'Trump Bingo' 

Baldwin, who brought plenty of sniffs for the night, also gave a shout out to his brother Stephen - who recently criticized his portrayal of Trump - and called him 'the best Baldwin'

Wallace then move the question on to the 11 women who have accused the GOP candidate of sexual assault.

'Chris, I'm completely innocent,' he replies. 'I've said this before and I'll say it again. Nobody has more respect for women than I do.'  

The set then cuts to scenes of people hysterically laughing in audiences around the world, before its just a picture of the earth from space - with the entire world cackling.

'All right, all right, settle down entire planet, settle down,' Hanks' Wallace tells the audience.

Real-life Trump has also denied the accusations of sexual assault against him, while more women have made allegations of misconduct against the GOP nominee.

Adult film actress Drake, 42, also said Trump had offered her $10,000 to spend the night with him one year after marrying his current wife Melania.

Trump denied Drake's account and said he would have 'no interest in knowing her'.

In Saturday's skit, Baldwin's Trump then repeats the Donald's favorite claim that Clinton has done nothing in her last 30 years working in politics. 

'Donald, no,' Hanks' Wallace begins to plead, 'No, Donald, don't set her up.' 

McKinnon's Clinton then happily exclaims, 'I'd be happy to talk about the last 30 years!' 

'Oh no, not again,' Wallace goes. 

Baldwin also quoted the line that got the biggest laugh at the debate, the moment Trump said: Nobody has more respect for women than I do'

She references the children's defense fund, September 11, and then brags: 'And I don't know if you're heard this before but I was instrumental in taking down a man by the name of....Osama! Bin! Laden!' 

As Wallace tries to turn the conversation to Clinton's tax programs, Baldwin's Trump suddenly declares: 'Such a nasty woman'. 

'Mr Trump that was incredibly rude to secretary Clinton,' Wallace says. 

'Thank you, Chris,' she says. 'That's exactly the kind of language that has poisoned and debased this election. And if you agree, go to HillaryClinton.com and buy a limited edition Nasty Woman mug.' 

And it wouldn't be a debate sketch without the most talked about line from the entire night - Trump revealing he may contest the election results. 

'Frankly this whole thing is rigged,' Baldwin's Trump says. 'Even the media. Every day I turn on the news and all of the newscasters are making me look so bad.' 

One of the funniest moments of the sketch was when Trump once again claimed Clinton had done nothing for the last 30 years, causing her to sing about Osama! Bin! Laden! 

The skit also referenced the moment Trump called Clinton a 'Nasty Woman', with McKinnon holding up a cup she told her supporters they could buy at HillaryClinton.com 

'And how are we doing that?' Wallace asks. 

'By taking all of things I say and all of the things I do and putting them on TV,' Trump responds to uproarious laughter. 

'Donald, listen, I'm trying to help you,' Wallace says, trying to get Trump to say he will promise to accept the results. 

'I, the best-ever Donald Trump promise to accept the results of the election,' Baldwin says, before adding, "If I win." 

'Got you, loser! Trademark.' 

'Listen America, Donald Trump cannot be president,' Clinton tells the audience. 

'He would be a disaster. A failure. A complete 'F'. And America, you deserve better than an 'F''. 

'So on November 8, vote for me and I promise to be a stone-cold 'B'". 

During his monologue Hanks - 'America's dad' - had a talk with the country about the rough year, advising it to vote with its head and heart 

Hanks then pointed to his crotch and told Americans: 'and not so much from here' 

'Then on November 9, make sure to check out Trump TV,' Baldwin interjects. 'You're going to hate it.' 

The rest of Saturday Night Live veered away from the political, but not before 'America's dad' sat down and had a 'talk' with the country.

Hanks, who was hosting the legendary NBC show for the ninth time, adorably put on a cardigan for his chat with the country about its 'rough year'. 

' Feeling anxious and conflicted, you’re scared about what’s going to happen next. Well you’re going to be fine,' he reassures America. 'You’re just growing up and you’re in an awkward phase.’

Hanks then refers to America's 'changing' complexion. 

'You're getting a little darker,' he says. 'Also, you're a lot gayer than you used to be,' Hank then adds to cheers from the audience. 

'All I came here to say is you're great. People don't understand how hard it is to be you, you've got a summer birthday and that's always tough.' 

'I know you're gonna make the right choice,' he adds, referring to the election. 

'As long as you think from here and here,' he says, pointing to his head and heart, before circling his crotch and adding: 'And not so much from here'.   

Another skit featured Hanks as a man named Doug who did surprisingly well on Black Jeopardy - that is until he had to answer a question about 'Lives That Matter'
