For the unversed, Wood had publicly called out the NBC show on her Instagram stories and labeled the skit—which seemingly mocked her character for her teeth and British accent—as “unfunny and mean,” per the reports. She also mentioned, “Yes, take the piss for sure—that’s what the show is about—but there must be a cleverer, more nuanced, less cheap way?”

As per NME, she revealed on her Instagram stories that she received an apology from the show. Wood also made sure to mention that it was not Sherman’s “fault.” She said, “Not hating on her, hating on the concept.” 

After Wood called out the late-night comedy sketch show, this topic became a central point of discussion among netizens, who gave their respective opinions about the same.
