@@jpnwtn Same here! I wonder if there's an existing name for this type of series-of-unfortunate-events to a nice guy sketch. We all clearly know what's coming next, and the genius is in making it both still somewhat surprising, and turning it up a notch each time.
@courgettee They usually post on social media. There's also a Reddit thread called Who Wrote What Sketch? that keeps track of writing credits. It's incomplete, but pretty accurate.
@@jocen3 I'm not American but quite familiar with American humor. This sketch and the first Washington's dream are perfect. I've watched them quite a number of times now.
@@pervonhagelbrakare8172 "it's hard to make me laugh" is the same level of flex as wearing shorts all winter: dudes think it makes them seem tough but it really just lets the rest of us know that you eat a lot of microwaved food by yourself.
I have been following Nate Bargatze for a while and after his host performance on SNL, I just think he is one of the greatest comedians of all time. I laughed so hard 😂.
My mom once called me to say there was an alligator on the golf course she was watching. It was chasing people around the course and they were trying to wrangle it haha The one and only time I tuned into a golf tournament 😂😂😂
I haven't laughed out loud so many times on an SNL sketch since Not Ready for Primetime Players! I have been following Nate Bargatze for a couple of years. So glad he's being recognized for his comedy!!!
Just here to say excellent work to the writers, and superb work to the host for being such a good actor in this. Also the caera work is fire! The special effects are fun. And the subtle joke about getting a birdie and an eagle... it's all so excellent woven together! S tier joke, mad props to the writers.
So, in a way, he got a birdie and an eagle on the same hole.
indeed.
Because an eagle is a kind of bird species? That's hilarious.
😂😂😂
This comment is funnier than the sketch itself 😂😂😂😂
Now, if he’d also gotten an Albatross somehow ..!
The "Golf Network Remembers Fairway Fred" banner ad legit seconds after the turtle died is the best part of this whole skit lmfao
"Legend of the Links" 🤣🤣🤣
🐢🪦😢
It is absolutely the funniest part
@doozythedoctor I SECOND THIS MOTION 😂😂😂 like bra he can’t stop killing wtf 😂😂😂😂
I didn't even notice it, but re-watched after this comment. Such a nice touch.
“Nike called. Really? Nike called?” 🤣
He almost broke when he said that
What, Nike has that phone number but they've lost Caitlin Clark's?
But still the logo is on the shoes , hahaha
@@fleeex1954 Nice spot
Best line
"OH, that STARTLED me." Mikey, making gold out of straw.
😂😂 the best!!
Mikey's awesome in all the sketches he's in!
I laughed out loud, flawless delivery 😂
At the end too, "oh he drived it in"
The veterans turning their backs were great, but the chyron "Remembering Fairway Fred" 🤣🤣
absolutely my favourite part, the vets 🤣🤣
@@tresordelamer So many subtle nuances. Quality writing.
Poor Fairway Fred is dead
I totally missed that!
TIL there's a word for that lower third!
There is something that feels very classic about this skit that I absolutely love. Greatness.
Felt like Mad TV.
Felt like something straight out of police academy
Caddyshack vibes for sure
I hope he makes the five timers club and continues to come back. The sketches are golden.
Yesss!!!!!!!!
A very, very, very solid show start to finish. A lotta gross, but solid!
@@lydiatingey3773 He's one of the best hosts I've seen in a while. SNL's worth watching again. 📺📺📺
He's the only who can make SNL funny!
I laughed so absolutely hard at this sketch (and some of the others). Hardest I've laughed in a while.
"Now he's yelling at his caddy" 😅 i love this guy, he's so naturally funny
The cut to the upside down turtle killed me and idk why lmfao then it twitched🤣🤣🤣🤣
The leg twitched 😂😂😂😂💀
@@Cheryl_Wick the tail
@@Bubbles-od2tv oh yeah, you right. Poor turtle. 😂😂😂😂💀
Only once..
maaann snl has the best props. moodeng costume, animatronic turtle and eagle
This has been the funniest SNL sketch in a while. Perfect shock and escalation. I love the lower third of the Remembrance special!
Agreed!
“The famous snapping turtle that has been a fixture of this course since 1971”
Just lying on its back 🤣
The twitch 😂
😆🐢
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣That killed me then it twitched and I died again
😅
I don't know who's a guest is
The craziest part of this skit is just how good Nate's golf swing is! lol
He’s an avid golfer and I play in our high schools annual golf tournament that is named after him.
The production on this sketch is perfect, the camerawork and graphics were fantastic! 😁
Yes! It makes me think of Scott Sterling’s soccer shootout. The first time I saw that one, I was half convinced it was real 😆

I was laughing so hard! Written by Mikey Day and Streeter Seidell, the best SNL writers.
Where can you find out the sketch writers?
@courgettee They usually post on social media. There's also a Reddit thread called Who Wrote What Sketch? that keeps track of writing credits. It's incomplete, but pretty accurate.
I'm so happy Streeter has found so much success after Collegehumor, clearly he's earned it.
Thanks!! I was googling so hard lol
The only sketches that seem funny per show always seem to be written by Streeter.
The realism made this skit sooooo hilarious!
"Fairway Fred: Legend of the Links Sun 9/8c" (2:49) had me dying
I haven’t laughed this hard at SNL since Washington’s first Dream
What about the second one? They just had it.
@@canaisyoung3601I meant what I said. ;) to each their own
this must be american humor because i didnt even smile once throughout the whole video?
@@jocen3 Is that a question or a statement. (See what I did there...)
@@jocen3 I'm not American but quite familiar with American humor. This sketch and the first Washington's dream are perfect. I've watched them quite a number of times now.
This is definitely one of the greatest sketches I've seen in a long time! :D
Congrats to the writers, Bargatze, and the rest of the team!
I had to stop eating I'm sure I would've choked 😂😂😂😂
Nate Bargatze is officially one of my favorite hosts now!
I swear every american has the humour of a 5 year old
Monty Python does the same humor you dirty Brit
@@pervonhagelbrakare8172 it was enough to maybe chuckle.. But yeah..
Who know, actual comedians are pretty decent at comedy

It’s nice when a host is actually funny and willing to have fun
Glad to see they worked some golf in for Nate.
He's fantastic.
The blocking of the Nike logo 😂 2:38
😅
ikr!
such a balenciaga move
That was hilarious!
One thing that would have made the sketch better would have been if the red flag at the end turned black after it cut back to it.
'NikeCalled"🤔😮💨.......🤣🤣🤣
"Is it okay?" as the caddy is trying to cover the dead body.
Lmao.
I died when he threw his club in the lake and the turtle floated up haha
Are you ok?
So did Fairway Fred.
R.I.P.
This IS one of their funniest sketches ever. Nate is so believable in it. I watch it again and again. USA
Settle down
@taylordeaton214 you don’t have anything better to do than reply “settle down” over and over? Just let people enjoy their things
Good to know. USA
I get that SNL likes to push boundaries but this is just too far. Missing a two-foot bogey putt is no laughing matter
He’s gotta be way over par for the tournament because of that.
😂😂
Comedy has no limits!?😃
If I understood golf, I'd agree with you. 😂
Is there also a two foot Bacall?
Nate is perfect!
The woman broadcaster is also incredible -- the range of her expressions had me laughing!
The most interesting golf has ever been, I laughed way too hard for this one!!!!!! This week's skits are so good!!! I love SNL for having Nate back!!!
"tap it in.... just tap it in...."
Caddyshack might have a challenge on best golf jokes
The realism really made this skit.
My mom once called me to say there was an alligator on the golf course she was watching. It was chasing people around the course and they were trying to wrangle it haha
The one and only time I tuned into a golf tournament 😂😂😂
@@james.telfer Did you forget about Happy Gilmore?! 😱
Instant classic- funniest SNL skit I’ve seen in years
I LOVE when Nate Bargatze hosts.
It's only happened twice before. It's not like he's a Five Timer's Club member (though he might be in a few years).
@@canaisyoung3601 …ok?
This has to be one of the best if not the best SNL in many years. Instant classic.
It reminds me of Caddy Shack
2:29 The twitching tail was a nice touch.
😂😂😂
Agreed 😅😂 Farewell "Fairway Fred" 🐢💀😅
Nate plays this role perfectly. Hilarious skit
Laughed so hard I cried. Gotta be up there with the best SNL sketches EVER. It’s perfect.
I think what makes it is that Nate looks sooo much like all those pro golfers!
Are you serious?
😑🙄🤦🫠🖕🏼
Crying too hahahaha
This was the best!
Perfect Nate - I actually felt sorry for you while I was laughing. Your acting skills are fantastic - as is your golf swing.
This has to be one of the best skits ever on SNL.
Next to the Washington one.
Settle down
Loved the veteran turning their back and the Nike covering the logo brilliant funny
😂😂😂😂
I loved this skit. Applause to the writer. 👋👋👋👋👋👋👋
Wonder if Mikey wrote it. It was brilliant. I had tears streaming down my face while covering my face with each death.
@@angie7164It does seem like a Mikey Day/Colin Jost sketch.
Where do you find the info on who's written which sketch? 😮
@@maryschroeder1533 I was thinking Michael Che. But you're probably right. I hope we can find out soon.
@@maryschroeder1533 Healthy dose of Silverman in there?
Nate is now my FAVORITE SNL Host!!!
Yes
This one reminded me of Monty Python sketches. Great stuff
Yes! Now that you say it, reminds me of the sketch where everyone was sent off to war regardless of whether it was a penalty or prize 😂
😂exactly!
Yes!
I haven't laughed out loud so many times on an SNL sketch since Not Ready for Primetime Players! I have been following Nate Bargatze for a couple of years. So glad he's being recognized for his comedy!!!
I love how the camera only stays at the other competitor for as little time as possible 😂

And the subtle joke about getting a birdie and an eagle... it's all so excellent woven together! S tier joke, mad props to the writers.
This was by far the best skit of the week !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m a bird conservationist. Sent to all my bird biologist and ecologist friends and we are all LOAO. 😂🦅🤣
This was really funny haha. I also liked the water slide one, and even the coach one. Lots of sport sketches today, but they're still funny.
I just love Nate!! This is hilarious!!😂
Laughed so hard. Another perfect sketch
Listen, I love the George Washington skits but THIS…oh man this had me crying laughing throughout the whole thing. Absolute perfection.
I’m crying, I don’t remember the last time I’ve laughed this hard to a sketch😂
There will be a 3 hour memorial service for Fred at First Baptist on Sunday
this was one of the best skits in a while
If they made an entire movie of this, I’d *definitely* watch it.
Caddyshack + Happy Gilmore?
Same-and I hate golf!
This skit was just so absurdly funny.
Python great!
I haven't laughed so hard in years. This is true comedy.
Nate has a good swing. 450 yards with an iron is next level stuff.
you should see some of his golf videos - he's serious about his golf. ua-cam.com/video/_hfft_DOX1g/v-deo.html
I had forgotten about that, after laughing that he had that much in on his 4th shot, lol
I don't know how many times I've seen this masterpiece
That's probably the funniest skit I've seen from this show in a loooong time!
Great skit.
Silly stupid funny is hilarious
1:35 The veterans turning their backs to him. Hahh Pretty great skit
😂😂😂
It’s mid at best
That's so silly but I can't stop laughing 😂😂😂😂😂
I literally laughed out loud several times on this! Too funny!
I've watched this soooo many times and each time it gets better and better. You can say he got his eagle turtle and chip munk. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I feel like no one except Nate could have done this sketch. Perfect.
2:09 “Oh God, the eagle’s back!!!” 🤣
Best line
And I laugh every time someone sincerely says “startled”
This skit is an instant classic. So good
This was one of the funniest SNL skits I've seen in a while. Instant classic!
I don't watch much SNL but that has to be right up there with the funniest sketches !
Me either! However I watch anything w N Bargatze! He looks sooo diff than when he first began!
this is one of the best in awhile.
"The Eagle's fine...." This one was gold!!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂the bird the eggs and the turtle 😂😂😂andnthe squirrel 😂😂😂I cannot
The first time I watched this and the ball hit the bird I had to stop myself from spitting out my drink lmfao
An all-time great production! Thanks!
Mane. I love Nate. I love how his daughter announces him on stage. Funny guy.
I think Mikey might've found his calling, he looks like every golf commentator I've ever seen lol
He looks great like that!
I still think Chris Parnell and Jason Sudeikis are better picks, but Mikey Day does have the look down.
This is the funniest SNL production I've ever seen. Here in middle Tennessee, we are very proud of Nate and we delight in his success.🤣
Nate is bringing SNL back to glory, little by little 👏
I think this is the first time I’ve laughed at an SNL sketch in a long time!
Has to be one of the best skits I’ve seen from snl as are all the skits they’ve uploaded this week
Checking for birds smart move 😂😂
This guy makes SNL actually enjoyable!!
@@soneedanap Yes, his deadpan delivery is 😂😂😂😂😂
Funniest thing I've seen come out of SNL in ages. One of their best ever. Great job!
SNL writers have really stepped their game up. Almost every sketch that Ive seen has had me dying. 😂
Best clip of Nate's so far from both episodes!! 😂😂😂
Nate Bargazte was hilarious!!! Enjoyed watching!
Lmao😂😂❤
I laughed so hard when Nike covered their logo!!
The Happy Gilmore sequel looks awesome!
I have not laughed more at an SNL skit ever. Ever.
They automatically have "The golf Network remembers Fairway Fred" 😂
I laughed so hard my face started to hurt 😂😂😂
😂😂😅 I haven’t laughed this hard at SNL in a while.
Nate slayed it.
He did and was able to show off his golf skills. The Nike cover up was hilarious! @@squid_fish
me too. This was gold
Right, he was so funny!!!!!! Like I laughed so much!!
I laughed so hard at tonights weekend update lol
This had me falling back in love with SNL
The 🐢 twitching 😭
Only watching SNL when Nate is on. This skit was so funny I couldn't stop laughing even after the skit was over. 😅😅😅😅
Nate actually has a silky smooth swing
He plays golf all the time.
@@Elisse244 It definitely shows in this!
Nate is an exceptional host! So many hits!
🤣 Aaaagghhhh LMFAO.... my side is hurting 🤣😭 gotta watch this again!!!! He got a "Birdie"
I have not laughed harder at an SNL sketch in years. The surprise of the tee off had me screaming.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 This was one of the funniest things I have ever watched 👏🏼
