“Saturday Night Live”\u00a0welcomed back not just one but two iconic ’90s cast members for this week’s season finale.<\/p>\n

Molly Shannon joined her former “SNL”\u00a0co-star and host Will Ferrell for a high school musical sketch in Saturday’s episode, playing the school’s very friendly music director Miss Peebles. Ferrell played the formidable theater director Mr. Koenig, who was about to announce the cast for the school’s production of “Grease,”\u00a0with students eagerly awaiting the verdict. But first, Shannon’s Miss Peebles has to sashay in to give the cast list her personal OK.<\/p>\n

Shannon emerged to a roar of applause from the “SNL” audience, primping and posing before Miss Peebles shared “a couple of things about me”: First, she’s gotten a reputation for being “too handsy with boys,”\u00a0but she insists “that’s a lie!” Secondly, she’s “tough\u00a0as nails,”\u00a0but she “gets results.”\u00a0To demonstrate, she called out a student played by Tommy Brennan and asked for the highest note he could hit \u2014\u00a0then she grabbed his junk to get him to sing even higher.\u00a0<\/p>\n
