Will Ferrel’s Agenda
Will Ferrell’s goal in “The Love-ahs” was to keep Fallon off balance and make him laugh. As a matter of fact, Ferrell stated that he was aiming to make Fallon laugh when he created the skit. Even though he tried everything he could think of to make Fallon laugh and be distracted, the plan worked flawlessly.

Additionally, he brought it up on The Tonight Show, admitting that he’d do anything to get Fallon to break character during the live broadcast by switching things up. Because Lorne Michaels and the writers didn’t like Fallon breaking character, he said he was in hot water.
How Sketches Are Chosen
Have you ever wondered what it takes to put together a single episode of Saturday Night Live? Writers and cast members get together on Mondays to pitch jokes and brainstorm ideas. Tuesdays are reserved for writing. Then, on Wednesdays, everyone gathers to read the sketches aloud.

Thursdays are dedicated to the construction of the sets. Fridays are reserved for rewrites and rehearsals. The most difficult aspect of this process is that only about eight sketches are chosen for each episode, out of a total of 40 to 50.
