Coronavirus fears have even reached the fictitious characters of Saturday Night Live's "The Sands of Modesto," a fake soap opera that's really suffering from current precautionary health measures.
This week's episode catches up with Debranike (Kate McKinnon) getting ready to see a former flame and avoiding touching any surfaces or other people as she waits. She doesn't shake hands with her makeup artist (Kenan Thompson), who stays as far as he can from her face as he applies her lipgloss. She doesn't hug or touch her daughter except for a weird face-and-elbow touch and a shoe tap dance, and she can't even kiss a former flame (Daniel Craig) when he finally shows up with his cockatoo.
We could keep describing it, but nothing will replace the image of Craig and McKinnon trying to kiss but also stay germ-free. Enjoy.
