Peter Dinklage And Leslie Jones Are ‘Naked And Afraid’ In Hilarious ‘Saturday Night Live’ Sketch


Peter Dinklage gave a pretty good performance on Saturday Night Live last weekend. And part of that good performance was appearing naked and getting up to all kinds of hijinks in a scripted parody naked survival show, according to Uproxx. But with blurred private parts, of course.

The Game of Thrones actor hosted last Saturday’s Saturday Night Live episode, but critics noted that the episode was rather “rusty,” and had an unfinished feeling to it. It was also noted by some viewers that the sketch would have been much better if Peter Dinklage and the Saturday Night Live crew gave it another day to rehearse and refine the episode.

But Game of Thrones fans needn’t worry, as the episode had an abundance of the HBO show-related jokes throughout. However, there is one thing for certain: the most recent Saturday Night Live episode featuring Peter Dinklage is definitely not the best episode of Season 41.

The most hilarious sketch of the episode was when Leslie Jones joined Peter Dinklage to star in the Naked And Afraid parody sketch. And while the Game of Thrones star appeared as an awkward participant of the Naked And Afraid: Celebrity Edition, Jones made the sketch even funnier by bringing her outlandish charisma on board.

By all accounts, the combination was just perfect. And the fact that Peter Dinklage and Jones appeared naked was just a bonus. Jones called Dinklage “Tyrion” throughout the entire sketch (and who could blame her?), even though the Game of Thrones actor corrected her every time.

During the sketch, Jones also went as far as sexually harassing Peter Dinklage when the two were spooning at night. Well, Dinklage couldn’t resist much, as Jones was literally crushing him (and that angle of the camera at the end of the scene shows that Jones was all over Dinklage).

But despite their differences and a mild case of sexual harassment, Peter Dinklage and Jones made it out alive. And the two even hugged at the end of the sketch, which looked super awkward given Dinklage’s height and considering the fact that they were naked.

In another sketch, Peter Dinklage showed off his singing skills to let the world know he is wearing space pants, according to Uproxx. The sketch, titled “Mafia Meeting,” was about a mafia meeting that could have ended with a gun battle, but instead ended with all the tough mafia guys singing about Dinklage’s space pants.

And the best part of the sketch came when Gwen Stefani joined Peter Dinklage on stage to sing about her space shorts.

The third sketch of the episode featured a “glory hole,” and Peter Dinklage eating food out of it. In the sketch, titled “Trendy Restaurant,” the Game of Thrones star appeared as a regular client of a restaurant where food is served through a glory hole.

The episode also featured Aidy Bryant, Vanessa Bayer, and Beck Bennett. And although Bennett appeared confused with the whole glory hole restaurant thing at first, he then tried to “fit in” after he was offered to try a corn dog for four. Peter Dinklage explained to Bayer and Bennett that this whole “glory hole restaurant thing” goes way back to the 1970s, before the neighborhood was commercialized and sanitized. This may be a strange thing to say, but Peter Dinklage sure knows how to keep a straight face, even when there are long objects sticking out of a glory hole right in front of his face.
