SNL Skit: The Greek Gods Gather to Solve the Greek Financial Crisis
Posted on November 6, 2011
In this Saturday Night Live skit, the Greek Gods are called together by Zeus (Jason Sudeikis) to discuss how to solve the Greek financial crisis. Neither Poseidon (Andy Samberg), Hera (Kristen Wiig), Athena (Nasim Pedrad) or Ares have any helpful suggestions -- other than going to war. When Zeus finally discovers that Dionysus (Charlie Day) has been in charge of the Greek banks, the crisis all begins to make sense. Dionysus' opening line was, "Sorry I'm late. Orgy stuff." Adam Levine did a hilarious, dead-on impersonation as Yanni, the "Greek God of Music." Kudos to the SNL team for all the Greek mythology jokes. Take a look:
