@@zuchrinataduring the live show, the audience, Jost and Che laughed at how Longfellow exited offscreen. Wish we actually saw it cause it sounds hilarious.
“Smoking makes you skinny and popular. And for guys it adds a couple of inches.” He seems believable. Time to hit the stores for cigarettes, I guess, instead of ice cream.😂
@@pcbassoon3892 Kidding aside, smoking can restrict vascular flow, which means from a purely hydraulic standpoint he might have gained a few millimeters in ideal conditions.
It's probably a small cup of dry ice & some USB strip lights that can be set to Orange... but I agree it's a great costume!!! Kudos to the SNL costume department!!!
I legit believe this costume is an altered version of an exact one worn for an “I’m Just A Bill” Schoolhouse Rock parody. Even network shows gotta cut some corners.
"Find me in Mom's purse!" - just about spit out my drink, lol. Mom's purse was the gateway for cigs in 60's/70's - nobody's Mom smoked but there were usually smokes in a purse :)
Michael and Marcello are completely different personalities but I have to say they both bring so much character to the cast! I almost stopped watching SNL when the old cast started leaving but now thanks to them I still look forward to every week
I'm sure plenty of other people have left this exact same comment on other videos, but I swear to god: this is the funniest thing snl has made in a long damn time. No notes.
I just looked it up because I don't think I heard of it. Looks like one of those i would see on basic cable channels thats in black and white. Did you like it?
@@Dailymemes9000 Hey hi! It was a short lived sketch show on MTV…many if not all of the cast went on to do lots of shows or movies to varying degrees of popularity and success…their comedy was more odd and subversive than SNL…maybe closer to Canada’s “Kids in the Hall”. Both of these sketch shows were in the 90’s so not sure it’s aged well but it was a grungy weird time 😅
@@Dailymemes9000Lots of good sketch comedy shows in the 90s; the aforementioned Kids in the Hall, Upright Citizens Brigade, and the legendary Mr. Show to name some highlights. Of those, The State is my least favorite, but has its moments, and the cast is full of great writers/comedians.
@@Dailymemes9000 - The State is the best show to watch if you want to learn how to hunt Muppet, how to engage in a long, drawn-out campaign of psychological torture on monkeys, or what sort of sweet nothings to whisper to $240 worth of pudding. It's a show that was popular with teens in the mid-90s, as evidenced by an appeal they once made to Chelsea Clinton to watch their show, back when she was living in the White House. It really is a fun show. I think it's available on a few streaming services, and I know each of the 4 seasons can be purchased for about $5 each. It's not life changing or hugely profound, but it's a good watch.
I mean if you think about it. Cigarettes were so important during WWII that they were issued to you. Cigarettes helped win WWII. Before the end of Vietnam they stopped doing that and everyone see how that turned out. 🤷♂️
“Oh sure defend him” has me crying
Me too. XD
written by Sarrah.
Right? Classic passive aggressive trap.
That, the my butts been in your mouth, vape killed kids...there were some great lines
“Oh ok, defend him”*
That cigarette costume was literally smoking, above and beyond from that dept as always
Right? I didn't catch that the first time I saw it.
I've been watching that costume the whole time! Incredible work.
Ironically, the smoke machine was probably a little vape fogger thing
The SNL Art / Props department Kills. That cigarette costume is flawless. The hands, the glowing embers. Awesome!
😂🎉
Wow; I was gonna make a smart ass crack about how the wrong end was glowing, but I guess he is filter-down, isn't he?
The smoke!
@@baylinkdashyt I kept wondering that myself, why were there burning embers on the part where you put your mouth?
There was some smoke coming off it too
His “say it.” Was so chaotic. I love it.
What they call cigarrettes in London?
Guiguspis’
Trying to get Colin to say offensive things is one of my favorite parts of current SNL.
It’s just Faggio without the gio.
Definitely not afraid to say it.
Colin has definitely said it before.
Me too, I think it's his boy scout face making that self-conscious smile
Current? They been doing that for years.
Gettin old
The more Michael is in skits, the more comfortable he gets and he's honestly becoming one of my favorite new cast members.
"honestly"
This and his Question Quest delivery, masterful!
Why did you quote just the word honestly? lol
Agreed
@@boombahhh Silliness.
Michael just telling everyone to smoke direct to camera was the best part XD
‘We’re the dessert for sex’ is the tag like Marlboro has been seeking for their entire existence
Mojave? Sahara?
*dessert
“oh sure defend him.” best line.
Is that bin laden or usain?
We need another Michael Longfellow appearance on weekend update. Too good!
This is the first clip I've seen of Michael Longfellow and I'm instantly sold on him. His line delivery is too perfect
"Cigarettes are dessert for sex"😂😂😂
Only if you want to POISON yourself and others.
"Find me in your Mom's purse" was a great stinger line, almost lost at the end 😁😁
"okay, DEFEND HIM!"
best line
This felt like a classic SNL skit, hit all the right beats, really good.
To me, it almost felt like Norm was back. 💔
his shimmy to mimic tapping a cigarette KILLED ME 2:54
Michael is obviously up for anything the costume department throws at him 😂
I always love the costumed guests they bring on to weekend update
Michael getting a time to shine this season! Finally!
Agreed, he’s my favorite newbie
His timing is great.
I miss Norm Macdonald...Michael reminds me of Norm...with the way he looks and his casual delivery.
Something about Michael's delivery of "Say it" does something to me 1:16
Michael Longfellow is one of my favorite newcomers on SNL!
Agree!
You must be new here.
Yes!!!!! He has SO much potential!
@@LiftedMoonLight - I like your sarcasm.
His stand-up is really good, too! Got to see him live and was cackling the entire time!
Judging by their reaction, I feel like we missed something during Michael's exit that the live studio people got to enjoy.
Thought the same thing.. rolling off in style 🤣🤣🤣
Wait what do you mean? Which reaction?
@@Sharivari16thank you 🙏 this is what I visioned 😂👍
@@zuchrinataYeah I'm not seeing any "reaction" either. Maybe they watched it live and the editing for UA-cam cut it out?
@@zuchrinataduring the live show, the audience, Jost and Che laughed at how Longfellow exited offscreen. Wish we actually saw it cause it sounds hilarious.
Michael nailed it. He does deadpan with style.
Finally Michael! He deserves more screen time
Michael did great this episode, he nailed hosting that game show sketch and this hit too.
That was legit one of the funniest skits I've seen from SNL in a long time
this costume is awesome. from the lights to the smoke coming off the top
That skit went WAY better than I was expecting 😂
“Smoking makes you skinny and popular. And for guys it adds a couple of inches.” He seems believable. Time to hit the stores for cigarettes, I guess, instead of ice cream.😂
Ice cream adds inches too, but they're circumferential rather than linear.
@@davidg3944 But cigarettes make you skinny and popular, so cigarettes instead of ice cream.🤣
One of my guy friends swears he gained some length after quitting smoking. I have not seen the evidence first hand though.
@@pcbassoon3892 Kidding aside, smoking can restrict vascular flow, which means from a purely hydraulic standpoint he might have gained a few millimeters in ideal conditions.
We must BAN THE ILLEGAL TOBACCO DRUG, NOW!
Michael Longfellow is always funny. Love this dude!
First time watching a SNL bit and instantly hit the mark with this player. M.L. is certainly hitting his stride with the cast.
"Find me in your mom's purse" is a great quip, ngl
This and "The Iceberg That Sank the Titanic" are my two favorite sketches.
😂 Longfellow’s voice and delivery 😂 and to be honest ~~swoon 😊
"find me in your mom's purse!" 😂
I missed that line even after watching multiple times !!
“ find me in your mom‘s purse” 3:28
The whole Weekend Update segment tonight was awesome
Michael Longfellow's going to be a star. His delivery is excellent
As a 40 yr old man who started smoking in highschool....that anthropomorphic cigarette is the truth
Who ever decided to use Mickey Mouse gloves for the cigarette is a genius. I hope cigarette makes more appearances.
Nope, no more ILLEGAL TOBACCO DRUG on SNL!
Cigarettes are horrible, but every time I see someone vaping, it’s like watching an adult ride a tricycle.
Stopped cigarettes after 20 years of smoking. Been vaping 6 months, feel amazing, using WAY less nicotine, MYFB.
I cannot believe you just wrote that . PERFECT 😂
That is literally the best analogy I've ever seen in my life. We as a species don't deserve you.
And then that adult puts their baseball cap on backwards and rides off on their wheelies while listening to their zune.
well aren’t u so high and mighty. ur probably 40. go spend time with ur kids instead of commenting on youtube
I love Michael Longfellow! He needs to be in more skits!
I hate when people say SNL isn’t funny anymore. This is comedy gold
having smoke come out of the costume was cool
It's probably a small cup of dry ice & some USB strip lights that can be set to Orange... but I agree it's a great costume!!! Kudos to the SNL costume department!!!
This was such a good character and the writing was really smart 😂
One of my new favorite weekend updates! Michael was hilarious
I legit believe this costume is an altered version of an exact one worn for an “I’m Just A Bill” Schoolhouse Rock parody. Even network shows gotta cut some corners.
2:15 The slow thumbs-up. hahahaha
@2:19 whoever was on standby with that wink sound effect deserves praise
Lol idk this guy but he killed this “cigarette” role.
For real. He was funny af
And everyone who smoked it. 😉
Michael Longfellow? New cast
Michael Longfellow has SO much potential!!!! He is definitely my favorite cast member right now! Im excited to see what other skits he is put in.
Weekend Update anchor potential!
He would be great for weekend update in the future
Michael's "Say it" got the "Say my name" vibes 😮
Almost convinced me to try a cigarette and then I remembered how bad they make you smell 😅
1:21 “say it” was fantastic
Pretty good, I kept picturing Norm MacDonald doing this skit as the cigarette.
The "one more picture" got me good
"Find me in Mom's purse!" - just about spit out my drink, lol. Mom's purse was the gateway for cigs in 60's/70's - nobody's Mom smoked but there were usually smokes in a purse :)
Cigarette guy needs to be a recurring character.
Michael needs more screen time!!!
Michael and Marcello are completely different personalities but I have to say they both bring so much character to the cast! I almost stopped watching SNL when the old cast started leaving but now thanks to them I still look forward to every week
Oh how I missed costumed Michael Longfellow cameo
Marcello in skits and Michael in weekend update is 10/10
I cant stop watching this skit 😂😂 probs one of my all times favorites. when micheal is on he is ON i wanna see more of him
That was an actually funny modern SNL sketch. Props.
love michael in these character roles on weekend update
"Find me in your moms purse"
Damn😂 thats exactly how i started smoking 30 years ago. 😢
to be fair smoking a cigarette still has this aura of cool rebellion that vape doesn't really have
I didn't know how bad it was until I spent the night in a smoking allowed motel room.
Aura of cool rebellion is not what I was reminded of.
@@Raymond-zz5pi
Was it booked, full, that u
were not able to request a
different one?
Smoking is bad, m’kay.
@@MyKingdomForAK9 yes.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💯🎯🎯 the surgeon general DOES approve the above text message.
😂😂😂😂
I loved this! Very cute and funny - well written
in love with michael longfellow
“Say it.”
Fantastic.
I like so little of SNL, but clips like these are just amazing.
This guy is a powerhouse in waiting. Get him more airtime, please!
"Find me in your mom's purse!" Lol
The smoke coming out of the top is HILARIOUS
Would have been hysterical if they had a picture of OJ vaping
I'm sure plenty of other people have left this exact same comment on other videos, but I swear to god: this is the funniest thing snl has made in a long damn time. No notes.
Let's be honest, old movie stars looked good smoking in a silk robe 👘🚬🙌
I love this cast member!
Michael Longfellow works the Update desk so well!
the mickey mouse gloves and the little DING! when he winked really got me
Finally Micheal getting another skit
Michael be shining here
If “The State”was still around and had new cast members join I could totally see Michael Longfellow on that show. He has a weirdo vibe 👏❤👏
I just looked it up because I don't think I heard of it. Looks like one of those i would see on basic cable channels thats in black and white. Did you like it?

He's the next big star on SNL. We'll see him in movies before long.
I remember when it was "Can I bum a cigarette"
Smoking Will always triumph Vaping Period.
Tonight was so brilliant. ❤ I loved watching and laughing every moment of the show.
Thirty years after my dad quit, he still tapped his shirt pocket after dinner to get a smoke.
The old school cigarette costumer was like 1950 amazing.
After watching a few of these with the younger generation, I am very impressed!!
His timing is impeccable.
i'm addicted to his delivery of "now look, the children are dead" i will not listen anything else ever again
"Blowing it down their shirts...DORKS!" Lmfao
That was actually pretty good. SNL can still pull off some laughs sometimes.
Gives me hope.
I feel like michael is just more comfortable with a costume.
This was so good.
“Meet me? Okay.”
😂
High quality stuff this week
Michael Longfellow is an absolute stud
I love the deadpan delivery, reminds me of Anthony Jeselnik
The fact that he's adorable made that close up hilarious 😭
2:36: "She's like Marlon Brando but girl" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I mean if you think about it. Cigarettes were so important during WWII that they were issued to you. Cigarettes helped win WWII. Before the end of Vietnam they stopped doing that and everyone see how that turned out. 🤷♂️
ah yes, no confounding variables here
