Saturday Night Live may have gone too far this time.
A piece from the sketch comedy show made fun of ISIS, or the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria. It spoofed a Toyota ad about a father and his daughter that aired during the Super Bowl. In the Toyota ad, it showed a father taking his daughter a U.S. Army hitch.
SNL ran with it, and showed a similar scene, but instead of a father taking his daughter to a hitch, the daughter (played by SNL host Dakota Johnson of “50 Shades of Grey” fame) instead went to join ISIS in Syria. She jumps into a vehicle with ISIS-looking extremists, who are complete with beards and weapons. “ISIS. We'll take it from here, Dad,” the tagline says, per AdWeek.
