The late night show poked fun of the ongoing trial between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard as Depp claimed Heard of defecating in his bed in 2016.
It's a story Depp has alleged previously, but it resurfaced amid the divorced movie star's latest court battle – Depp is suing Heard for libel, saying her 2018 Washington Post op-ed defamed him.
During the skit, the jury is shown surveillance video of Depp's house staff discovering the fecal matter.

Didn’t Drew Barrymore get canceled for mentioning the trial?
Umm, I suggest you read why she legitimately needs to be canceled!
@Marina for a mild opinion
@Marina wait, what of it disturbed you??? because I may watch and it may be 2 different reactions, so what’s up about her?
they shouldve made fun of the actual criminal AmBER and not johnny.
AMEN
Trash skit with weak writers. Johnny is the victim. Writers clearly afraid of Amber.
This is garbage and misrepresents whats actually happening
Shame on SNL they are absolute hypocrites, Johnny is the victim here and Amber is a disgrace for all real DV victims no matter what gender they are.
You know that Amber is a lesbian and the parties she went to with Elon She was way better off when she was just sitting in the court looking like a robot. Her testifying literally ended all her chances and made her look like a complete joke. Johnny was smart when he requested to put cameras and stream the trial for the public. He succeeded in exposing her to the world without even arguing with her directly.
He succeeded in exposing himself too.
I wouldn’t put too much trust in American jury. That said, UK court is even worse.
US Today is bought by her PR team. Lol
Yep 🤣
So Johnny is mocked but Amber is okay. It’s Johnny’s fault… You do know that Johnny is the victim here…
So afraid of being accused to mock a victim while mocking the actual victim.
Schizophrenic
Totally!
This was soooo DISAPPOINTING not to mention CRINGEYYYYYYYYYY
Disgusting!!!!
Its tasteless and harmful to mock the real victim of abuse here who is Johnny. We all seen the tapes.
Not even funny, SNL sure has gone down hill…
Shame on you SNL! Beloved Phil Hartman spent 8 seasons on that show! After his slaughter in bed friends and family spoke out saying Phil had told them “”She got attention by losing her temper. Phil said that he had to … restrain her at times.” People in his life also knew abuse was going on and felt helpless to stop it. SHAME ON YOU!!!!!!
EXACTLY. I IMMEDIATELY THOUGHT ABOUT THIS TOO. YHANK TOU for bringing my it up! Shame on SNL for making light of a psychotic woman abusing a man even after they have first hand knowledge of someone directly affected by this sort of abuse. They basically said in this sick skit that Johnny is to blame for driving Amber crazy.
Typing paragraphs of random words would likely be funnier than this skit.
TikTok does a better job at parodying this than SNL. So many lost opportunities for laughs with this sketch.
Kyle Mooney as Johnny Depp. Now there’s a stretch.
who runs that show? they can’t be that stupid? Truth is out there who do they think we are?
Did it actually “bring the laughs” though, let’s be honest.
