Also MADtv. If MADtv is supposed to be better than SNL, why'd they get rid of cast members that had potential. Though I do like that they kept Keegan Michael Key and Jordan Peele until the end of the series.
Robert Davis he left to do other things but I like that he comes back to make other appearances but I get what you’re saying because he’s actually my favorite.
What I also like about Killam is that he nailed Amanda Bynes when she was smoking hot, before she went crazy. He was on that teen sitcom of hers. I think they were each other's firsts. Good for him.
But they should NOW because ScarJo and CoJo are getting married, and in the grand tradition of Brangelina, Kimye, and a whole bunch of dumb ones I don't recall right now, CoScar and ScarCo are the worst choices. I shall call them "Che's White Brother and Sister In Law", AKA JoSco de MiChe. No, I won't. But CoScar is pretty funny.
When he hits his hand on the table 😆. Love Woody Harrelson trying not to laugh. "What owl?!" "Exactamando!" At times that one guy reminded me of Jim Carrey.
Sarah lol. Indeed. The firing is what I was referencing. And some of the people they’ve hired since dumping Taran and Jay have been human garbage heaps.
This era was the best. Taran Killam, Kristen Wiig, Maya Rudolph, Vanessa Bayer, Jason Sudeikis, Andy Samberg, Bill Hader, Fred Armisen, Will Forte. SNL has never recovered from losing these legends.
I saw the description of this first and the way Taran looked and was totally ready to hate this - but this was hilarious. Taran nailed the essence of McConaughey.
Jackie Meanwhile Kenan Thompson, who always does the same bland, boring characters & terrible impressions, is about to start his 17th season on SNL. He actually said this in a recent interview: “That’s the forever plan,” Thompson says. “To never have to leave that show.” Most cast members can’t wait to make movies & then gracefully leave. But Kenan knows that’s not gonna happen so they’ll probably have to drag him out of there.
KoolCat ! I actually like Keenan. I think he’s pretty versatile, but I agree with you about the whole 17 seasons thing. Taran was upset when he was fired and didn’t know why he got fired. Lorne Michaels said it was because he’d been there for 6 seasons and after that it’s time for a change. They like to switch up the cast, but then he keeps Keenan for 17 seasons and Darrel Hammond was on there for like 14 seasons.
@@coolcat6303 Only a hater would say kenan Thompson is terrible. I agree he has stayed too long in SNL and need to move on to better things. But what happens if you haven't found that better thing and your employer hasn't found a better replacement?
Taran you are MISSED on SNL! Brad impression was my fav among yours ! happy for your successes after leaving this show as well! Saw you on hiking with KEVIN NEALON as well!
Woods Harrelson’s eyes bulging out of his head before the tootsie pop joke😂. Even after hearing the joke a million times he still had to prepare himself lol.
Miss Taran Killam. One of the best SNL cast members. Now I watch him On Single Parents but a show like this really showed his talent. A Jim Carrey of sorts.
ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT. Oooopsaa! Caps lock on - too lazy to correct - but it looks OK (good even) and shouts the praise for Taran Killam a little louder. I hope he does another McConaughey real soon and maybe add a little of that 'Texas whistle' to his vocal impression.
You can tell Woody was actually marveling at how good taran was in this segment lol
It’s an incredible impersonation. Listen to Matthews audiobook and you’ll experience hours of this kinda thing.
Woody actually seemed proud of how well Taran was portraying Matthew even though he was dying to laugh
Both extremely funny!
Besides the best rooster crow I’ve ever heard by a human, Taran kills it start to finish. Over the top done perfectly.
I miss him on the show 😒
Yes!
Wait....that wasn't Matthew?
I love everything Tarzan does. I was so surprised when he didn’t return on SNl. He is so talented.
Matthew at home, ”I don't remember doing this sketch, but is definitely me.”
😂😂😂😂
gn lilu Actually Bill clinton is wondering when he did this sketch 😂😂😂
Thoughts 😂 “Alright, Alright, Alright!”
This comment is gold!
Woody Harrelson at home, “That guy impersonating me doesn’t look or acts as good as I do.”
Woody was struggling there, you could see he was dying to laugh.
At 2:16 he seriously looked like he might pee his pants.
he did well to hold it back
Absolutely hilarious. Exactly what I was thinking when u can see Woody holding his mouth shut. Lmao
You can tell he was actually really impressed by Taran's impression lol
That's a dead on impression of woody Harrelson
Not as good live though.
I think it's because he's used to it by now😂
I don't know, it's pretty close, he'll get it if he keeps working on it.
Meh. Mid
@@SophiaAphrodite 🥱
This impression of matthew is spot on taran is one of the best cast members in snl history very underrated
couldn't take my eyes off Woody's reactions.
Taran is a big loss for SNL. He was such a talent in everything he was featured in
so true .. always wonder why he was fired
@@neko77025 I thought he left because of the work culture transformation after Seth Myers left :O
A very big loss regardless.
@@IsyMaxine what kind of transformation?
That was Taran? I actually thought that was Matthew McConaughey 😆😆
So underrated tho
I have never heard Matthew McConaughey make so much sense in an interview before.
Then you've been living under a rock, but that's alright.
@@SimonHaestoe unlike you who is homeless, but that's alright
The look on Woody’s face is priceless
I'm impressed he kept such a straight face most of the time!
I thought he was going to piss himself laughing at least half a dozen times
He's sitting there thinking "Yup, that's exactly what Matthew sounds like.
He was right on point with Matthew McCaunehay impression!😂😂😂
Jesus..Taran is AMAZING! That impression was so damn SPOT ON 😆😆😆😆
He doesn’t look like McConaughy but he sounds and acts just like him.
with a hint of Bill Clinton
He's talking too fast. Matthew talks a lot slower and relaxed
No, he really does not..
You need to look A BIT like the person you're impersonating or it doesn't work, sorry
no he doesn’t
Killam's mathew impression is so good!
I still have harsh feelings about them letting Taran Go ... but it’s fine he’s a star now !
Taran is the most underated actor in SNL history
Totally right. I've watched the show since the beginning and he is one of the best I ever saw...love his work.
Couldn’t agree with you more. He is really talented. I think he should be in big movies.
Agreed. Although he did get a good gig upon leaving. So someone recognized it.
Paul, that's no exaggeration from you. Taran was underrated. In this clip he makes Woody look like a bumbler.
Also MADtv. If MADtv is supposed to be better than SNL, why'd they get rid of cast members that had potential. Though I do like that they kept Keegan Michael Key and Jordan Peele until the end of the series.
Why did they ever lose Taran? Dude was AMAZING.
Robert Davis he left to do other things but I like that he comes back to make other appearances but I get what you’re saying because he’s actually my favorite.
Rubbed Lorne the wrong way.
Miss him.
Esma Husejnovic No, he definitely got fired along with Jay Pharaoh. They both said neither one saw it coming
I think Taran & Jay were because of inviting Trump in hotline bling ...I think.
This has to be one of the funniest SNL skits I've ever seen! Taran Killam's take on Matthew McConaughey is completely "off the hook"!!!
mcharren just thought the same thing, one of the funniest snl skits EVER, and I’ve been watching since the beginning.
Loved True Detectives Season 1. One of my all time favorites
Seriously, Taran is one of the most underrated SNL cast members ever.
I think Nasim Pedrad did some great work on SNL. I was sorry to see her leave.
Tim Meadows
@@royboy1984tim meadows is purely a straight man though, I think his only impression was michael jackson which was pretty funny though
I still have harsh feelings about them letting Taran Go ... but it’s fine he’s a star now !
Altó Keyz He's better off not on the show, he's hilarious on single parents and I never really realized how funny he was on SNL
no hes not lmao nobody knows who he is
@@stevedonahue7956 you must be a nobody then huh. He's a very successful comedian
I couldn’t believe they let him go. I was surprised, I was thinking of him as the breakout star of the show by then.
Why'd they fire him?
I hope one day we'll get the REAL story on Taran's departure. One of the best they ever had.
Yeah, he's ONE talent dude! Taran was funny as hell in " Night School" as the principal. 😂
He left? Pretty much the last of the good ones
He has said that they just didn’t renew his contract. He didn’t see it coming at all
Lorbe Michaels is an
insecure & fearful
small-minded
comedy-hating
douche boy.
What I also like about Killam is that he nailed Amanda Bynes when she was smoking hot, before she went crazy. He was on that teen sitcom of hers. I think they were each other's firsts. Good for him.
Henceforth Colin Jost will only be referred to as CoJo
Its been 5 years since this sketch and no one is calling him that
But they should NOW because ScarJo and CoJo are getting married, and in the grand tradition of Brangelina, Kimye, and a whole bunch of dumb ones I don't recall right now, CoScar and ScarCo are the worst choices. I shall call them "Che's White Brother and Sister In Law", AKA JoSco de MiChe. No, I won't. But CoScar is pretty funny.
@@TabethaAurochs but will they?
@@TabethaAurochs
It would be hilarious if they put Che in their celebrity couple name.
@@hennakhan4587 ScarCoChe? JoCheJo? CoCheSca? JoJo Che? Idk but I am 💯 on a nickname that's Che-inclusive!
When he hits his hand on the table 😆. Love Woody Harrelson trying not to laugh. "What owl?!"
"Exactamando!"
At times that one guy reminded me of Jim Carrey.
Up there with Nick Cage by Andy Sandberg .. and that's HIGH PRAISE 😂😂
That's High Praise!
Sambergs cage was shit
I liked Samberg's Mark Whalberg impression better but I guess you said Nic Cage for the HIGH PRAISE.
Interstellar is a big fan of you... 🤣🤣
I love how Woody is trying so hard not to laugh 😂
This impression was awesome and hilarious 😂
Killam killed it! He was so good! That rooster noise was spot on!!!
2:10 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Woody fights with His face
I love how you can tell Woody's having a great time
“Exactemundo” 🦉
one of the best impressions ever!!! lol'ing until the end
Need more Taran Killam uploads..he is way too good
Okay, THAT was funny!
Inter-STELLAR.
ZipLINE of the MIND
Woody’s expressions throughout this piece are priceless!
Woody was trying so hard not to laugh.
Couldn’t be any bigger compliment to Taran,s performance than Woody breaking
Im a vampire rooster and found this hilarious😂
Well im a also a vampire rooster and i found it highly dis tastfull 😂
How the hell is this just making it to UA-cam? Any other ways SNL can do Taran Killam dirty?
well they fired him lol so thats the ultimate i guess
Sarah lol. Indeed. The firing is what I was referencing. And some of the people they’ve hired since dumping Taran and Jay have been human garbage heaps.
I agree! I live in the U.K., and love following SNL...this is very very funny!
I can never find the backstory on why they fired him. I think he was the most versatile player in quite a while. Can’t figure it out.
Amber Lee I think most of the new cast is really funny it was just that dude Luke null or whatever that wasn't that good
Woodly was in pain, not to break😂😂😂
1:03 Poor woody trying not to laugh 😂
Taran Killam....just plain unbelievably good!
I like that they missed the high five.
Most underrated SNL cast member
"Our princess will always be in another castle. Because our princess... isthespiritofadventuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure."
Wait does he not say this? This fits so well i thought he had to of haha
@@alexandermilewski7850 I was waiting for him to say it... but he didn't :(
This era was the best. Taran Killam, Kristen Wiig, Maya Rudolph, Vanessa Bayer, Jason Sudeikis, Andy Samberg, Bill Hader, Fred Armisen, Will Forte. SNL has never recovered from losing these legends.
Sorry but vanessa bayer is in a lower league compared to those other names you list
Harrelson trying not to crack up.... wholesome as heck.
Oh my I’m rolling! That was the best skit ever!!!! 😂😂😂😂
Welp, this is easily going to "My Favorites" list. So hilarious & Taran didn't even break!
Was a tad overkill with the McConaughey impression
Taran never breaks. Am I right?
"lablupbluplup I get big and he's spittin fireballlls...doodoo dododoodoo" LMAO
That miss on the handshake at the end killed me.
Too awesome! And I just finished streaming True Detective (only Season 1) this past week!! Loved this Weekend Update parody... made me laugh 😂
Watching this after listening to Greenlights is simply spectacular!!! 😂😂😂
Taran was incredible!!!😂😂 if I wasn’t watching him act next to Woody, I could close my eyes and just imagine it was Matthew! 🥰
I saw the description of this first and the way Taran looked and was totally ready to hate this - but this was hilarious. Taran nailed the essence of McConaughey.
Taran's kids bed time stories must be hilarious. Wish he was my dad but we are almost the same age lol :-p
Taran is one of my all time favorites. I’m still upset they fired him for no good reason. How do you do one of your best players dirty like that?

Keenan’s not nearly as good as Taran.
the way woody keeps it together! respect!
I randomly clicked and it's the best sketch I've seen
Man, the SNL performers do an amazing job imitating people. That was a PERFECT imitation of Woody Harrelson.
taran's presence on snl was so underrated
Taran you are MISSED on SNL! Brad impression was my fav among yours ! happy for your successes after leaving this show as well! Saw you on hiking with KEVIN NEALON as well!
Oh man I haven't laughed this much for such a long time 😂😂 I have tears here 😂😂
Woods Harrelson’s eyes bulging out of his head before the tootsie pop joke😂. Even after hearing the joke a million times he still had to prepare himself lol.
Taran always been my favorite of SNL
Taran not only did Matthew.. he did even the rooster well 😂😂😂 killed me
i come back every few months to watch this sketch. it will live rent free in my mind forever. hahah
Miss Taran Killam. One of the best SNL cast members. Now I watch him On Single Parents but a show like this really showed his talent. A Jim Carrey of sorts.
0:22 woody is impressed😂
Absolutely love Taran♡
Omg I missed taran so much!!!! Soooo much! Please take him back!!
Miss Taran, loved him!
Mr Taran to you
@@barbilove1698 Taran Tino.
That was spot on , spot on, spot on!
1:45 the blinking 😂 he nailed it
Mathew McCounghey was amazing in 'Gold' by the way.
Man, that impression was dope, that script was a trip! Well done, Taran Killam!
One of the greatest 3 minutes of television in history.
That was freaking HILARIOUS!!!! 🤣
You can tell at the very beginning Woody loved Taran's impersonation.
Taaran Killan SPOT ON. That's amazing!!!!
I don't know who the guy doin mackindagay is, but everything he said and did was magic. That shtt was poetry.
Angel Orejel His Name is Taran Killam!
the whole thing is hilarious but I watched 03:11 that kiss and that lick like ten times 😂😂
Taran Killam was a rising star on SNL. Lorne whiffed when he let him go...
Him and Jay Pharoah were massive talent that got screwed
Awesome mimicry of Mathew I love the show
Taran was and is, one of the best!!, Deserves more recognition!!
That was hilariously deep about time being a flat circle. True dat
Couldn't stop laughing. Thanks for the laugh guys.
He deserve an oscar for that impression
Anybody remember Taran playing Jimmy the Orderly on Scrubs? He was great even back then.
Rich Relaxes "...but I have your skateboard." Anyone remember Big Fat Liar??!?!!?
"Matthew I'm a big fan of interstellar"
Matthew:- *Uno reverse card
Taran is amazing! So talented
That lady laughing her ass off around 2:00 to 2:20 is having the time OF ! HER ! LIFE !
Taran is LIFE 😍🤩😍
It's a cross of matthew mcconaughey and bobcat goldthweit 😂
Taram Killam is amazing!! So talented!!!
What a spot-on Matthew McConaughey impression! And Taran Killam did a good one too!
Taran was loving this too much
Woody is trying so hard not to crack up 😂😂😂
ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT. Oooopsaa! Caps lock on - too lazy to correct - but it looks OK (good even) and shouts the praise for Taran Killam a little louder. I hope he does another McConaughey real soon and maybe add a little of that 'Texas whistle' to his vocal impression.
I've seen this many times, but still, I found it as hilarious as the first time I saw it.
Bring back Taran! Brilliant!
