Louis C.K. Isn’t Interested in Doing a Splashy SNL Promo

SNL has been having a field day lately with catchy, two-person promos for their upcoming hosts. Whether it's Kate McKinnon and host Chris Hemsworth trying to recreate Dirty DancingRyan Gosling and Aidy Bryant weiling on their pecs or Vanessa Bayer and Lin-Manuel Miranda discussing Miranda's inability to get Hamilton tickets, the promos have been a hoot.
