Jeremy Culhane returned for Season 52, reprising his portrayal of conservative commentator Tucker Carlson on “Weekend Update.”
His impression parodies Carlson’s commentary with exaggerated questions and complaints about liberal influences on pop culture, shifting from earlier appearances discussing the Oscars and Met Gala to reviewing summer blockbuster movies.
The former Fox News host owns a home in Bryant Pond, a village in the western Maine town of Woodstock, where he lives part time.
Carlson has spent summers in the area since childhood and has also used a studio in the village for broadcasts.
