UN-AIRED VIDEO: SNL Drills BP for Oil Spill, Calling BP “Blade of the Pelican”

When Betty White was a guest on SNL over the weekend, some skits never aired on NBC because we think they were too controversial. Hulu.com got these unseen skits, and put them up for our viewing pleasure!

This SNL skit, “Debbie Downer”, takes a big stab at B.P. (British Petroleum) for their devastating oil spill in The Gulf of Mexico, and how it is affecting the ocean life. Nice job to the SNL writers for sneaking this in the skit! Check out this video featuring Betty White, alongside the SNL reunion cast of Tina Fey, Rachel Dratch, Maya Rudolph and Amy Poehler.

“You know who doesn’t love being covered in oil? Sea birds.”
“You guys heard about the oil spill right?”
“Yep…Well I guess from now on, B.P. will stand for the ‘Blade of the Pelican.’”
