Hanging out on a street corner in Bushwick, Brooklyn is quite a bit different now than it used to be. There are still bodegas here and there, but they’re mixed in with plenty of organic markets and farm-to-table, nose-to-tail brunch spots — or, as “Saturday Night Live” would have it, the occasional “artisanal mayonnaise” shop.
In a brilliant sketch about gentrification, three friends — Keenan Thompson, Jay Pharaoh and this week’s host, Kevin Hart — hang out in their neighborhood and discuss what they’ve been up to of late. Recent activities include: Eating gelato on the street, painting landscapes while sipping white wine and hanging out with their “bitches” — which, in Bushwick 2015, means running a booming dog-walking business.
