SNL and The Wire

Cafe Society

So the final skit in last night’s SNL was an ad for a law firm specializing in cats who have been left lots of money by rich eccentric widows.

Which was all well and good… except that the two partners in the firm were Marla Stanfield and Christopher Partlowe.
Someone at SNL is a fan of the best TV show ever.

Am I the only person who noticed this too? It was weird that they were lawyers for cats, which has no apparent connection to The Wire; Stanfield is a pigeon fancier, not a cat lover. However, I laughed when I heard the names.
