(Literally: She gets recruited to play a zombie on The Walking Dead.) It’s a savage takedown of female beauty standards taken to ridiculous extremes, as a makeup-less Shaela ends up in a hospital bed barely clinging to life. The natural look can be hazardous to your health, apparently: Thede plays cubicle drone Shaela, who decides to save time by skipping her daily makeup routine and ends up looking like the walking dead. She’s terrific here as the regal leader of a support group for self-described “bad bitches,” trying to talk one of their glammed-up sisters out of lowering herself to become just “an OK bitch.” (“Like, I wanna wear regular house slippers, not three-inch-heel house shoes.”) Stick around for the Laverne Cox cameo - and the sinister twist at the end. We don’t get to see Angela Bassett do comedy very often… and based on this sketch, that’s a real shame.
