YES! All I could think about while watching this was all the people I hired/trained over the years for GameStop and and eventually seeing all my sweet summer children get their spirits crushed when they realized that it was a job that you could easily get fired for. I was able to keep a couple core teams together for a couple years at differeny stores The bad part about every gamer wanting to work at GameStop is that they have a never ending supply of resumes. Too many crap AMs and DMs won't take time to REALLY train and teach new employee to learn to run the store, over just point and scan. If someone doesn't catch on .....🥾
This totally fits as a metaphor for Kyle and Beck's career on SNL as well. They were friends and comedians together who both got hired at the same time at their dream job, a place that has influenced them since their childhoods. There, they met the people who they've idolized as icons, but who they now get to work with on a daily basis. Even Lorne Michaels could be interpreted as that owner at the end.
I would be remiss to not mention how perfect Leslie is in this skit. She plays off Beck and Kyle's quirkiness with everyday apathy and weariness of an average low wage worker. Her expressions are priceless AND she is a great cast member contrary to UA-camrs.
+Nihilist Porcupine You might already know about it, but search goodneighbor on youtube, it's their old YT channel. They don't upload on it anymore but there's some hilarious stuff on there
lorne is probably taking them after Andy samberg, whose digital shorts became more popular on the internet through UA-cam. he knows what he's doing, the only main difference is that sambergs shorts were aired on television lol
Yes, if only everyone were this excited about their jobs. Unfortunately, others always seem to make it their job to discourage this - as demonstrated in this skit.
I'd imagine if jobs like this paid better wages/fair compensation for overtime/possibility to buy shares in the company and offered decent healthcare they would. Job satisfaction should not be the exclusive purview of people with prodigious student debt. (that is not to say that there aren't people with degrees in jobs they hate, certainly no shortage of that, but they also have more options) - every person putting in a fair day's work, no matter whether they're sweeping the street or managing a chemical plant, should be able to have a decent, baseline standard of living without killing themselves at multiple soul-crushing jobs and getting a scant few hours of sleep a night.
These Beckett/Mooney sketches are so corny but I always smile when I watch them. I don't think their aim is to get laughs as it is to realistically explore a fringe slice of life.
I love how Kyle and Beck's videos hone in on such a specific part of our culture. Especially the millennial generation but in a very non-obvious way I don't know how they do it but it is amazing
Watching dudes like this and after watching a few of their skits on SNL it seems like they're in a totally different league from the other actors/writers these guys could easily be legends, especially kyle
+Danny Steeler I just work at a grocery store, I am applying to a steel workers union soon. What videos? I don't have that interesting of stuff on UA-cam, lol.
I definitely have had a few co-workers like this in my retail jobs before. Specifically Beck's character at my job at Lush, and at the library at my college. It was intense.
I don’t know why but I love this sketch, the “grow a guy sketch” and the “pumpkin F@$king” sketch. For some reason the weirdness always makes me laugh.
2:56 Pete’s “you don’t seem like it” with a cigarette in his mouth does it for me. Something about it reminds me of old school SNL humor, Dan Aykroyd, Chevy Chase.
They did such a good job of creating this little world that I already anticipated the Pogie character coming into frame once that music started playing.
I actually love to think that there are people who get this excited about their job! A little bit more enthusiasm and optimism would make the world such a great place
Kyle and Beck represent me being happy about experiencing things that I rarely get to, like feeling like you have friends or feeling loved or like I'm super fortunate and the black lady represents normal people that take those things for granted and look at me weird for my enthusiasm
I love Beck Bennet's impression of a dorky sarcastic teen... "cause that's normal"
He's basically doing an impression of kyle in this sketch...!
JOMADeeNA Yup. I know that feeling because I can relate. I have Autism.
@@MikeRiderOOO is this offensive to you?

Because they exploded?
I find it hard to believe that anyone who interacted with games stop in any capacity acted like this when hired.
There could not have been a better person to be an arcade mascot than Pete Davidson
EXACTLY! I knew who it was by the walk! Hahaha
Useless and moping around?
@@JonnySublime Charming
you could tell it was him by his walk before he was even revealed to be Pete Davidson
Lol ikr 😂😁
Do you think this is how Kyle and Beck actually reacted when they got hired by SNL? I'd like to imagine that it is!
sooo cute
Yep this is totally normal we can just be on tv every Saturday on snl totally normal
i mean its honestly a lot less creative and more childish than their normal stuff. snl just cant write comedy for shit
youthe you know the actors are also the writers right?
Did they die when they met Lorne?
They need to make a playlist for weird ass Kyle sketches so it's easier to find.
randud ikr
sounds like you found your calling, Randud....
If you build it, we will come!
Did you ever do it?
Clicked on this thread with so much anticipation....damn...

Spot on you genius. I wonder if they meant to do that.
+Tony Elevathingal Very interesting observation!
Tony Elevathingal they used to be on SNL in 2013. I'm glad they're back!
Yep, and then both their heads exploded. I'd say they were the shortest SNL hires, but I'm sure that's not true.
@@benvoliothefirst Beck was on for 8 years, Kyle for 9...thats longer than a ton of people. Laurie Metcalf was only on for 1 episode, for instance.
Actual footage of Kyle and Beck on their first day at SNL
Yes the moment they saw Lorne Michaels.. they were like blown off 😂😂
I can totally tell that it’s Pete before he takes the Pogie head off. He has a very distinct walk.
i just posted a similar comment haha
It's the hair shake post head removal for me 🤣🤣
yeah. it's called rickets

That’s oddly satisfying to give the one thousandth like to a comment. Watchin it go from “999” to “1k” Dude, THIS IS AWESOME!!!
It was a little spooky for me to watch this video. I actually knew a couple of guys who acted EXACTLY like these two.
same!
Luckily there were no cranial explosions. :)
Did they work for Brazzers?
Yeah me too. They usually play D and D and wear snow pants in their mid 20's.
ZombieTex I love the heavy breathing
"AND HE'S PLAYED BY NATHAN, WHO SEEMS LIKE A REALLY COOL GUY!"
The way Kyle’s voice cracks during that line is so funny to me!
I got that voice stuck in my head now
You guys cool? Doesn't seem like it.
I love Leslie in this sketch cause it sound like she has lost the will to live like most of the people at Chuck E. Cheese
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Like pretty much any retail/food service employee with any aspirations who is over the age of 21, lol.
So true lmao
It depends. The employees at the Chuck E. Cheese near me are all very friendly and are always smiling. My kid loves that place
I would be remiss to not mention how perfect Leslie is in this skit. She plays off Beck and Kyle's quirkiness with everyday apathy and weariness of an average low wage worker. Her expressions are priceless AND she is a great cast member contrary to UA-camrs.

Agreed. They'd have a decent following here, too.
That guttural exhale at 1:41 is just the icing on the cake.
just imagine a world where EVERYONE is as excited as his daily job as these guys.... that would be something
The exploding confetti heads would be Legion...

NO, it's simultaneously corny and hilarious.
I knew kids like this in high school. they were a couple smart-asses and now I think they actually have dead-end jobs at Pogie pepperonis
Mitzi73 totally agree. It's very much geared towards a certain generation 😊 it's not as slapstick like a lot of classic SNL skits idk
Kyle needs his own show like Fred did
Mitzi73 they have been making stuff together for years. Check out "Good Neighbor Stuff"
I love how Kyle and Beck's videos hone in on such a specific part of our culture. Especially the millennial generation but in a very non-obvious way I don't know how they do it but it is amazing
and how they manage to not make it cringe, yet be incredibly cringe at the same time!
I knew that was Pete before he even took off his costume head.
You can tell by how he walks. 😸
+mgoode I could see the sleepy eye under the helmet.
omg me too! the walk gave it away for some reason

As someone who use to work at Chuck E Cheese this is pretty much 100% accurate.
Wait did the animatronics come to life at night? Also why does the pizza taste like cardboard?
Cardboard is a trademark flavor for CeC and we had to work with what we had. No machines came to life, they were pretty lazy I guess.

That's great. I'd watch a whole movie about these characters.

Danni Ruthvan yeah except that movie would be terrible
2:56 Pete: “Are you guys cool?”
“Yeah we’re cool”
Pete: “You don’t seem like it” 😂😂
The "sad" Pogie image at the end with the upside-down smile is for sure an underrated detail. (3:25)
so nice to see Leslie Jones doing something that's not shouting. FYI guys, you can write her to not be a shitty stereotype, we'd all appreciate it.
+Eoinster She writes most of her own stuff ... She was A writer on the show before she was A "main player"
I was just about to say the same! Thumbs up for not having LESLIE portraying the loud angry black chick !!
yea true, she was becoming the Jar Jar Binks of SNL when stereotyped
Yeah I like it but leslie jones is a good actor and needs to try new roles
+Eoinster So true! Comedy is serious business.
when that beat dropped, lol
+swishpronoob That was too funny!
swishpronoob Yuhh that beat was good
What song is it?
Leslie is me touring the freshman at high school
Those freshmen have probably all graduated by now
@@michelg3811 maybe
Lmao when Pogie walks out and the beat drops!
Beck and Kyle are geniuses at responding to various tv and cinema cliches. They're ahead of their time, and ahead of the SNL fanbase
They'll stop being so excited after they have to take the night security duty and the animatronic Pogie comes to life.

Until a week or two goes by and they (if they're sane) quickly realize that retail work sucks.
The way kyle inhales hard as his laugh is spot on. Everyone knows that guy, same hair too.
I know guys like this EXACTLY! 😆😂 the overly zealous nerds that get insane when, whatever they obsess over, becomes an experience
DUUUUDE THIS IS AWESOME!
I love Kyle and beck so much. They’re so funny and probably the most talented cast members currently on the show

I don’t know why but I love this sketch, the “grow a guy sketch” and the “pumpkin F@$king” sketch. For some reason the weirdness always makes me laugh.
