Saturday Night Live has built its reputation on satirizing the biggest moments in pop culture, pushing boundaries with sketches that hold a mirror to society’s obsessions, controversies, and conversations. When Finn Wolfhard returned to Studio 8H to host episode 10 of SNL’s 51st season, the opportunity to lampoon Stranger Things seemed inevitable. Credit: Netflix The Netflix series just wrapped its fifth and final season, sparking massive online debate about everything from deleted scenes to character arcs to the handling of emotional storylines. SNL seized on that cultural moment with a filmed sketch that parodied Netflix’s approach to franchise milking while also diving into the conspiracy theories surrounding a supposed deleted ninth episode. The sketch featured Wolfhard alongside fellow Stranger Things cast members Gaten Matarazzo and Caleb McLaughlin, poking fun at fan theories and imagining absurd spinoffs like “Strangerous Minds” featuring Steve as an inner-city teacher. However, one particular element of the sketch has drawn significant criticism online, with viewers accusing the show of being insensitive toward Will Byers’ coming out storyline from season 5. The parody included a segment mocking the length and emotional weight of Will’s confession, redirecting his heartfelt moment into a joke about Dungeons & Dragons preferences instead of his sexuality. The backlash spread rapidly across social media platforms, particularly X, where fans and critics debated whether SNL crossed a line between satire and insensitivity. The controversy highlights ongoing tensions around representation in mainstream media, the boundaries of comedy when addressing LGBTQ+ storylines, and how audiences respond when emotional character moments become fodder for parody. The Sketch That Started the Conversation The SNL segment operated on multiple levels of satire. On its surface, the sketch mocked Netflix’s tendency to extend successful franchises far beyond their natural endpoints, imagining ridiculous spinoffs and prequels that extract every possible dollar from intellectual property. This aspect of the sketch played well, landing jokes about the streaming service’s approach to content creation and fan service. The sketch also addressed the conspiracy theory that gained traction online claiming Netflix and the Duffer Brothers had deleted a ninth episode from Stranger Things season 5. This theory, which the creators have repeatedly denied, became part of the sketch’s premise, with Wolfhard’s Mike character insisting that the finale was an illusion created by Vecna and attempting to prove his point by bringing back Eleven, only to reveal someone decidedly not Millie Bobby Brown. Within this framework, the sketch included a segment featuring Jeremy Culhane portraying Will Byers, with the joke centering on the character’s coming out scene “still going on.” The parody intercut footage from the actual Stranger Things episode with exaggerated dialogue, culminating in a punchline that redirected Will’s emotional confession about his sexuality into a joke about liking Dungeons & Dragons instead. This particular element struck many viewers as tone-deaf, especially given the significance of the coming out storyline within Stranger Things’ narrative and the broader representation it provided for LGBTQ+ characters in mainstream genre television. Why This Moment Matters in Stranger Things Credit: Netflix Will Byers’ coming out scene in Stranger Things season 5 carried considerable emotional weight for both the character and the audience. Noah Schnapp, who portrays Will, has spoken publicly about how meaningful and emotional the scene was to film. The moment represented years of character development and subtext finally coming to explicit resolution, giving Will an opportunity to express something the series had been building toward across multiple seasons. The 1980s setting of Stranger Things adds additional context to why this storyline…
