Tom Hanks is Somehow Reprising His David S. Pumpkins Character from Saturday Night Live

David Pumpkins? Are we supposed to know who that is?

Okay, so this isn’t really a music post but I tend to think of Saturday Night Live as a place I reserve the right for some commentary. And somehow they’re finding a way…. again…. to bring back David S. Pumpkins, the breakout character from last season’s Halloween timed show. They’ll be putting on an animated (!) special with a hilarious idea…

The story will find Pumpkins and his skeleton buddies showing a young boy and his sister the true meaning of Halloween in a small suburban town. The good news is that the THR piece notes that “none of their questions” will be answered, which at least means this won’t be a Pumpkins origin story. [Consequence of Sound]

LOL WTF.

Here’s the original skit where he made his appearance…

Haunted Elevator (ft. David S. Pumpkins) - SNL

And then he returned as David S. Pimpkins from the SNL “Rap Song” skit…

Ridiculous.
