With the Saturday Night Live 50th Anniversary show just around the corner (note: it will air Sunday, Feb. 16, from 8 to 11 p.m. ET on NBC and Peacock), we’re celebrating some of the most memorably sapphic moments from the sketch comedy juggernaut.

Playing off a recurring gag about a housewife (Vanessa Bayer) dutifully serving Totinos to her “hungry guys” on game day, the sketch takes a surreal turn when Stewart, playing a mysterious French woman, enters the scene and sparks an intense, melodramatic love affair. The result is a campy, cinematic spoof of arthouse lesbian films, blending absurd comedy with sultry longing—making it an instant favorite among queer audiences.
