Kenan was even funnier as a contestant! Game show sketches seem to work better when the host is somewhat bland and the contestants are the weird and funny ones.
James is doing a great job as game show host! Also, the "living across from each other during the pandemic and deciding to get married" line isn't being appreciated enough lol
This was a well written and composed sketch, dark and funny. Quinta is a great actress, she nailed it and was natural throughout. Throw the cue cards away, we have a professional on our hands.
YES ! Everyone on SNL comes off like a comedian pretending to act ( which is a vibe in itself) but I prefer the real acting direction that she brought to all skits.
Afroman made so many songs about their raid that I hope he puts all the songs into an album and make millions off of it. And the songs are hilarious, too.
@@sparklemotion101ni3 lol thats what I was wondering. It couldn't possibly have been any clearer if he held up a sign saying "i'm scared of you getting injured and having to give up my dreams to care for you." Oh...wait...
@@felleroerdere3351 I'm guessing that what @americanskeptic1559 means is that they didn't have Mikey Day show up and say "Huh. So you've seen your dad have to look after your mom all the time and you don't want to same to happen to you and your wife."
@@jvgreendarmok I mean...didn't they? They showed him feeding her in her wheelchair. They couldn't have been any clearer at all. There was no possible way they could've shoehorned in any line that would make it any clearer.
This is low-key one of my favorite sketches of all time. It strikes such a dark and ominous cord in such a benignly violating way that you can help but 😮😂😬🤣.
COMPLETELY agree. (The fact that my sixties-something wife just fell---again---day before yesterday is why I came back to rewatch this sketch. The darkness is comforting, somehow.)
This is wild because there’s been so many viral posts on Twitter lately about how men will leave their wives when they get sick or terminally ill and there’s a ton of research to back it up as well. I wonder if that’s where the writers got their inspiration… I did not expect it to go there! 😂
I thought it was about the statistics that show that men are much more likely to leave their wives if the wife gets cancer & the anecdotal evidence in which men leave women who need any amount of caretaking or aren't able to basically be free maids & nannies.
LOL Won a vacation w 10000 steps.... soooo hilarious! And both couple were funny but Quinta was most hilarious and the things her husband was saying are OUT OF POCKET hands down funny XD
Michael Longfellow is always _so good,_ isn't he? They have one of the best cast of players right now! And Kenan is one of our best actors in America, period. When Lorne retires, I really hope he'll step up for the job. 😂 👍🏻 👍🏼 👍🏽 👍🏾
Kenan just having a grand ol' time NOT being the gameshow emcee for a change 🙃
He killed it, his parents almost killed me 😂
Kenan was even funnier as a contestant! Game show sketches seem to work better when the host is somewhat bland and the contestants are the weird and funny ones.
@@Dulcimerist Also helps our game show host is one of the whitest men ever, on top of being the juggernaut of SNL comedy
Love this man
Host. I've never once heard the likes of Trebeck and Sajak called a gameshow emcee.
I lost it when they panned over to the parents. That was dark comedy at its finest lmao 😅
I don't get it
@@mewesquirrel6720 his biggest fear is ending up like the parents
@@minorperez5998😂
@@mewesquirrel6720 he'd been hinting at it the whole skit.
So f'n dark. 😅

yes great role for him, love Bob Dabuilda 😅
James is a great and versatile addition to the cast. I think they're setting him up to take over Mikey's role once Mikey retires from SNL.
@@OceanHedgehog Maybe. I could see him playing a lot of Mikey's roles if Mikey decides to focus on writing instead of acting.
He’s very under appreciated
Y'all might be too young, but he's doing a killer impression of Bob Eubanks, host of The Newlywed Game 1966 to 1988. 👏👏👏
Lmao such a weirdly dark sketch. I lost it when Devon and Ego popped up😂😂😂
Same! That put the sketch over the top for me, and I laughed really hard, too.
Yeah me too 😂
Now I see why that was Keenan's fear when I saw Devon spoon feeding Ego in the wheelchair..lol😅
So dark and SO wildly specific, and hilarious lol
weird? how the fuck is this weird?
When "The parents" were shown.... I lost it. 😂😂😂 as a caregiver.. this was too damn funny
Yes!
It took me a second to realize he ripped up the rock climbing certificate because he didn't want her to fall lol
This comment explained it for me because that went over my head 😂
Lmaooo it clicked for me and I died of laughter
LOL Ohhh I completely missed that one!!
😂😂😂😫🤣🤣
omg thats why he ddint like the prize

But Wally would be out of a job!
This comment feels incredibly manufactured by a fake account made to promote SNL.
Actually though, I kind of forgot they do read cue cards during this episode

Was it close? Was it? Lol
Bob Dabilda. Ahahahahah. STILL LAUGHING AT THAT.
Greatest character name in SNL history
Can We fix it? Yes, We Can!!!
@@richiemc6170 🤣🤣🤣
< Colonel Angus has entered the chat…>
Had me crying lmaaoo
James' expression opon seeing Kenan's dad in the audience sold this sketch.
*Upon
The moment where he feeds her in the wheelchair- so horrible lmao I loved it
Yep I lost it at that part too
Same
😂 someone was in the back dying laughing 😂😂
😂😂🤣
😂😂😂
Keenan's is my favourite! Always!😂
Keenan ,and quinta are literally comedy goals love them.
Afroman made so many songs about their raid that I hope he puts all the songs into an album and make millions off of it. And the songs are hilarious, too.
He’s not a bad man. He’s just traumatized 😅
Devon and Ego popping up turned this from a funny and a little bit dark sketch into a hilarious and extremely dark sketch, loved it.
When it showed his dad feeding his mom pudding in her wheelchair…damn 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hilarious and clever sketch! The unexpected warped twists got a lot of laughs from me.
The writing on SNL has been getting really good this season!
I agree 😂 love the odd twists and turns.
Thank you. The writing really has been on an uptick this season.
This was genius. Love the fact they didn't explain it. Intelligent comedy at its finest
What would they have to explain? It's literally all right there in the sketch...

@@felleroerdere3351 They showed but they didn't tell. SNL can be notorious for showing, then telling, while most of us think "yeah... I got that."
The best thing about this is the facial expressions on both couples. It's amazing!
Keenan answer to husband's greatest fear and his father feeding his mom 😂😂😂
Keenan & Quinta could be a whole tv show.
he could join Abbott Elementary
@@wildwitchwest I would really like that for him, especially if he decided to leave SNL.
@@wildwitchwest Keenan would be an amazing on Abbott elementary!
Is anyone going to admit the funniest part of the skit was panning to Ego in the wheelchair getting fed by her husband?
I lost it 💀
I howled!
the look on her face!!!!
Keenan and Quinta should have their own show
they basically do-just not with each other!
@@RW-gp1dq technically the truth, lol
Agreed
They should

The delivery of “get on top” was funny as hell lmao
JAJ almost laughed lmao
I lost it at 1:28 wow 😂
Same😂😂😂
This sketch was so funny 😂 lol everyone was funny but Ego only had 2 seconds and floored me!!!!
Finally a sketch with a beginning, middle and end. Really funny
The host’s name is “Bob the Builder” hilarious. Also reference to “Snakes” on a “Plane” the Easter eggs in this episode are great.
Quinta has the BEST facial expressions on TV 😂
It was jame's impression for me he is hilarious love him 😂.
3:28 was so unexpectedly dark, I love it
Quinta & Kenan need to be partners in another sketch whenever she hosts again.
Quinta is so beautiful! I loved seeing her in this style. We are use to the mockumentary style but she showed her true art of acting last night 🥹🥹👯♀️
i was wondering where ego was and i laughed so hard when i saw her
Kenan’s real laugh at 2:32 😅
Lived across from each other during COVID was underrated
This was one of the funniest shows in a long time and Quinta's monolog knocked it out of the park too!
Looks like Lisa from Temecula had an accident with that steak knife 😂 😂
"getting on top"
The host stifles a laugh, because no man has or will ever give that answer
Bob Dabilda!😂😂😂😂 Can he host it? Yes, he CAN!
Ummm. It took me reading your comment to understand. Now I feel dumb cause I didn't get it before. 🙄🙄
😂😂
This whole episode has been great, it's nice to see this new cast doing so well
I laughed so hard when they showed the husband's worst fear in the audience lmaoooooo
It wasn’t until SNL that I realized how much Sherri Shepherd & Quinta favor lol
Yes they actually do favor each other.
Good writing. Well done Quinta and Kenan.
Always up for a SNL game show parody. While I do miss Bill Hader's Vince Blight, it's good to see other cast members get to play the host.
Yes Bill Hader as Vince Blight in the "Who's On Top" game. Funny stuff....
the way the shot lingered a little too long on the tragic parents made it undeniably hilarious and dark
I was hoping the sister was going to be in the studio audience after that question
Lolll that would've been golden
So the incident with his parents was so traumatic that he'll do anything to make sure she doesn't get injured and have the same fate as his Dad 🤣🤣🤣
I thought it was about the statistics that show that men are much more likely to leave their wives if the wife gets cancer & the anecdotal evidence in which men leave women who need any amount of caretaking or aren't able to basically be free maids & nannies.
@@lesliebohn627 I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought of that during the sketch
@@lesliebohn627 probably a bit of both tbh
Yeah, that was a great sketch. I didn't see where it was going until it came full circle, well done!!!
No matter how ridiculous it is Kenan always nails it every single time!
OK, I had no business watching this at work! I can't breathe! 🤣🤣🤣
Ego had like three lines last night and absolutely KILLED!!!!!
I loved this skit - nuance, dark humor, a funny reveal… Im adding this to the list of snl skits i will rewatch
This is the best SNL sketch of the last ten years.
I desperately need a side skit where James has been getting trained by Keenan for years to take over the job as SNL gameshow host lol
Yooooo, the parents!!! 😭😭😭 lmao Staaaaaaaap!!!
Quinta could’ve definitely been a cast member in another life
LOL Won a vacation w 10000 steps.... soooo hilarious! And both couple were funny but Quinta was most hilarious and the things her husband was saying are OUT OF POCKET hands down funny XD
Quinta is EPIC here! 😂
3:28 such a good payoff once you notice what’s going on lmaoooo
Had to watch this several times to fully appreciate the genius writing
Whelp! We need a Quinta and Kenan Show ASAP.
Wow, they actually got to the end of a game show sketch.
Bob Dabilda -> Bob the Builder 😂😂
Thomas/Kenan has a fear/fantasy lol 🫢🫣😬
Wait lmaoooo 😂😂😂😂 this one caught me off guard. I actually bursted out laughing! 😂
the audience slowly realizing why the parents were included is the funniest part
I'm going to Bali at the end of the month and will definitely be putting that temple on my to do list lol
FOR GOD’S SAKE BE CAREFUL JOJO!!!
A super original idea for a sketch! And strangely wholesome. Love it
how is this wholesome lol
After seeing Thomas's parents, I understand his fears.
Awwww dang had me rolling at the parents also the mom answers … lol the remote couple was screaming divorce after thsi show
This is a flavor SNL rarely goes with -- I like it! New writers around?
The dynamic! Every part had me 😂😂😂
Every parent is chuckling at host “Bob Dabilda” 😊
Alwaysnoticed Quinta and Sherri look alike!! Sherri said on her show she would like to play Quinta's Sister on something.
EXACTLY 😅
I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again, Punkie looks adorable with that wig
This was unnecessarily funny AF 😂😂😂😂
“Bob Dabilda” is crazy 💀
Kenan and Quinta were hilarious in this sketch! They'd make a great comedy duo if they had their own show.
Quinta's DIMPLES are the CUTEST!💕
These skits golden, so accurate.
Get on top…. Ok… 😂😂😂😂 lol I understood his fear the second we saw dad lol
LOL! I love Kenan so much🤣🤣🤣
Good stuff -Punky even made me laugh a couple times
I like her reaction to being called an idiot... just fold arms lol
Boy, that escalated quickly
2:58 Quinta's face 😭
love when the camera whent to his dad you suddenlly saw his mother in a wheelchair and the father has to take care of her.
I haven’t laughed this hard in awhile lol I think I might have related just a bit too much to this sketch.
Classic game show rules, where calling your partner an idiot looses you a turn.
This hit waaaaay too close to home, and it was hilarious! 🤣
That skit ended just right 👍🏾
That dad part was hilarious 😂
Michael Longfellow at 1:53 is hilarious 🤣😂
Michael Longfellow is always _so good,_ isn't he? They have one of the best cast of players right now!
And Kenan is one of our best actors in America, period. When Lorne retires, I really hope he'll step up for the job.
😂 👍🏻 👍🏼 👍🏽 👍🏾
It's great that they're literally 3/4 of the way through the sketch before the joke reveals itself.
I’m on the 3rd sketch from last night, and so far they’re two of the best sketches in years
His name was Bob Dabilda- Bob the Builder!- lol
Love the old Newlywed Game - what a great & funny twist 😅
I wanted them to pan back to the audience and show the sister sitting on the other side of the mom! Would’ve been the icing on the cake
This is one of the best sketches- deserves more likes. But I wish the other couple had funnier moments- the non-Quinta and Keenan one
