Before every new episode of Saturday Night Live, NBC releases a handful of short promo videos featuring the host, cast members, and occasionally the musical guest. Saturday’s show features Kerry Washington as your host and Eminem as your musical guest – and the promos are hilarious.

Seriously, these things aren’t always great. But with the help of an exuberant Kerry Washington, a stoic Eminem, and a pitch-perfect Taran Killam, these are some real winners.

All you had to say was cupcakes, Kerry.
