SNL just not the same without all the departed cast from last year like Kate, Amy, Pete, Kyle, Melissa and Alex. Thank God for Colin Jost and Michael Che. Only reason I watch !
I went back and rewatched. I doubt there was any wine that landed in the chair while she was sitting on it because the chair was so small. And if there was a tiny amount on the chair, it would have all been absorbed by the next contestant, so not everyone would have sat in it
@@JazzyB9481 As another commenter already pointed out, you can see the people after her reacting to the wine on the seat. You can see wine on the table the whole sketch, and you can see the amount they filled the glass (they topped her up) in which she spilled also on the floor in front of the seat. Based on the video posted and my basic knowledge of matter and science I'm pretty sure they all got to enjoy the wine. Thanks for your take though. A lot to think about.
@@StargazingDragon I did notice after I commented that there was more in the glass than what they showed being poured in the sketch, but I was too lazy to go back and watch everyone sitting down, lol. I only watched the very next person wipe it off the table (not the seat). Thank you for replying back to me so respectfully! Have a great day 😀
We're all still hoping they bring Chris Pratt back into rerecord the voice before the movie comes out. It's not impossible. Remember a couple years ago they completely redid Sonic the Hedgehog after people didn't like the way he looked in the previews
@@PlumbPitiful That was different. Mario and his friends don’t talk that much in his games unlike Sonic. Unlike Sega games, most Nintendo characters don’t talk in their games.
*I am SO GLAD to see Bowen Yang in the Cold Open!!!!!* I hope he is featured more this year. He's great. Almost everyone in this sketch did an excellent job. For the new cast members, it sometimes takes time to get used to reading the cue cards without Obviously Reading the Cue Cards. It will happen, you'll do great, and welcome to the cast of SNL!!!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
NPR has a similar concept. From their website: "Wait, Wait...Don't Tell Me!, NPR's news quiz. In every episode, host Peter Sagal quizzes panelists and contestants on a smattering some of the week's most oddball events, from the eccentricities of world leaders to failed robberies." It's one of my favorite shows because it's quite funny.
This is showing that people are far too fragile if this is all it takes for them to snap. The issue is really with the individuals in question because issues haven't changed, only the perception of them due to scrutiny through on-tap news blocks and social media.
@Michael Whitted I don't think most people know who he is or that he's gay. It could be because he's Asian or something innocuous like him being a nobody.
@Michael Whitted No one thinks he's gay here because they think he's playing a character like that. I honestly thought he was one of the new cast members to be honest. The only one I recognize is Keenan.
He probably pitched and wrote it. Plus, I'm guessing this is his first cold opening where he's the star and not a side character with a memorable appearance, like that Hell cold opening where he played the guy who came up with "Baby Shark".
Literally last night on the news, We could quite possibly have Nuclear Armageddon within a couple months but meanwhile, while you're doing your Christmas shopping, Amazon is raising their shipping fees!
We need a sequel where he talks to someone like me who’s already in such a state of rage over everything in the world that they can’t snap because they are already broken. Then they just start saying new stuff the interviewer hasn’t herd of until the host snaps instead of
Kenan knocking over glass at the mention of Elon Musk's name is funny, but the new guy (Devon Walker) burning his face over Kanye (despite that Bowen told him to burn his hand) is funnier.
Also the point of the shirt. It's to show that people's reactions to it demonstrates who they are, where they stand and how delusional their position is when they pointedly defend their position or distaste for the shirt by arguing trite nuance on a failed premise.
Now I have to watch "Euphoria" because I don't get the joke at all. Why would an 80 get triggered by it? Edit: I think I finally figured it out. I found character descriptions and plot lines.
If we can get Paramount and SEGA to redesign Sonic, we can get Illumination Studios and Nintendo to fix Mario's voice and maybe even get Charles Martinet to re-dub the voice
Bowen, I love you!!!🤩 However, I will forever & always see/hear you, now, as the "Spotted Lanternfly"(last week)😂😅 "Boo Me, Boo Me! You don't even know me. Haters! Y'all Haters!." LOVED IT so much👏...that clip is my ringtone!!!🤣
This was one of Bowen Yang’s best performances. He’s normally relegated to eccentric characters, but he can play calm and collected as well.
About the only really funny thing he’s ever done.
I think he also does slowly fraying almost as good as Heidi.
“Stabbing is back….” Killed me hahha
He was great as the news anchor from Montreal… I think that was the Issa Rae episode
Totally agree, was really loving the character
This needs to be a continued series
Yes!
no..
Exactly
Really loved Bowen Yang as the host character!! He had that sarcastic delight nailed down PERFECTLY
Reminds me of Bill Hader’s sadistic hosts back in the day.
I like a lot!!!!
Audio cancer when i hear his voice.
The most unfunniest cast member ever, SNL is terrible
@@tomjboyle get a grip, Thomas.
Kenan just made me spit my coffee across the table! 😂🤣
Comedic genius!
The way he did the least of anyone and the most predictable thing. Pantheon of the comedic gods!!!🙄
Feels weird not having Kenan as the game show host character but Bowen smashed it
The introduction of "Morgan Freegirl" let me know this skit was gonna be fire 🤣
What?? YOU MUST BE WOKE!! SNL is not anything anymore then PROPAGANDA just like the MSM!!
Kenan was good as the gameshow host but I always thought Hader had a real edge and menace in the role. Bowen brought that feeling in for me.
SNL just not the same without all the departed cast from last year like Kate, Amy, Pete, Kyle, Melissa and Alex. Thank God for Colin Jost and Michael Che. Only reason I watch !
Bowen totally hit it! Amazing.
Bowen: This week, Elon Musk-
Kenan: BAAAAAH *smashes items*
Comedic timing at its finest
and it never stops. Year later, he's managed to get worse.
Yeeeeesss 😂😂😂
I absolutely did not expect Kenan to lose at mention of "Elin Musk". I bursted out laughing for that one 🤣
Me too! The second he said Elon, Kenan was triggered. That would have been me. LOL!
I laughed so loud I scared myself 😂
Same!
This show is garbage
No way, I also laugh.
Bowen is channelling his inner Bill Hader in this skit and I am here for it :)
thought the same thing (like joyous sadism)
SO good
No where near Bill Hader level. Js
Read in the voice of Christopher Walken: "Bowen.....Can't hold a COWBELL, .....to William Hader."
"In a word.....Chaos!"
It’s literally every game show host impression ever
I love that they did the wine bit first so everybody else had to sit in it 😆
Notice the next contestant quickly wiped the seat off?

@@JazzyB9481 Watch again, the next "contestant" quickly wiped the seat with her hand.
Keenan response to just hearing Elon Musk's name mentioned was priceless. Love this skit.
That joke has really aged like fine wine. 🤣
But like why though? Like what does Elon say that is crazy like any examples?
@@JakeyD23he recently threatened to assault Taylor Swift because she endorsed Kamala
That gay ass jump he did at trumps rally 🤣
Bowen's sheer demented joy when the contestant finally snaps 🤣🤣😂
Kenan has his own mellow happy sadist energy but Bowen’s is a bit more more energetic and sly.
He makes the sketch.
"That a great question. Let's play."
Yang is probably the least interesting thing about the entire show. And that is saying a lot
"When we come back, we'll show an 80yr old man an episode of Euphoria" - it was the last joke but for my that was the funniest one.
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one disappointed in Mario’s non-Italian accent 🤣🤣🤣
We're all still hoping they bring Chris Pratt back into rerecord the voice before the movie comes out. It's not impossible. Remember a couple years ago they completely redid Sonic the Hedgehog after people didn't like the way he looked in the previews
Yes who can live without the mickey mouse vouce with the bad italian accent.
Watch it makes no money then they all be hatin'.
It’s not like Mario and his friends talk that much in the games you know. So I don’t mind it.
@@PlumbPitiful That was different. Mario and his friends don’t talk that much in his games unlike Sonic. Unlike Sega games, most Nintendo characters don’t talk in their games.
"Stabbing is back"...hahaha! I love his delivery.
Somehow, the white lives matter shirt was the most Kanye thing Kanye has ever Kanyed.
You don’t think it’s funny?
Also, am I the only person that really dislikes the concept of “Yeezus”?
Coonye West does not care about black people.
Kanye to win the republican presenting nomination.
Right?! “White Lives Matter T-Shirt” was on my Kanye bingo card.

Fun to see new cast members... Heidi breaking down always makes me laugh... Bowen is perfection at dry humor... Keenan - Elon - GAAAHHHH! 😂
Omg Keenan killed that I haven’t laughed this hard at an SNL scene in weeks!!!! 😂😂😂
*Kenan
It's only the 2nd week of the season so obviously
Plus him jumping around in the back at the end 😆
Years for me
*overrated guy
“Stabbing is back!” 😂
Best line of so many great lines!!! 🤣
Didn't Michael Che mention that last season?
@@canaisyoung3601 I don’t get it, did stabbing ever leave?
Kenan's reaction made me spit out my juice 😂😂😂And Bowen Yang's deliveries were hilarious
I was a bit nervous when Kate and so many others all left at once but it means the new cast has a chance to shine and so far they've been great
Now Mikey Day can be in 95% of sketches instead of only 85%.

Bowen ALWAYS brings the funny. Best new SNL character in recent years. Molly's up next.
I'm with Keenan. Wouldn't have lasted any longer
@@FlameOnTheBeat Oh shut up.
Soft
Kenan*...
Why? Because Elon is actually getting stuff done as opposed to all the empty headed people in government?
I have good news: much as Musk wants to imitate Trump in every way, he can never become President.
this is such an enjoyable change of pace for snl gameshow sketches. let kenan play a contestant every once in a while. loved it!
They nailed this. Also, Devon Walker looks like Pete Davidson and I can't think of anything else when he shows up
Waitttt he does 💀
I hope Devon Walker can fill that doofy Pete Davidson void. He's already proven himself a better performer than Beck Bennett or Chris Redd.
@@tj.espygil4544 personally I never enjoyed Pete so for me, there was never a void.
same
I thought the exact same thing. He is totally giving Pete vibes!
I love Kenan being in the hot seat and Bowan taking his common role of making everyone uncomfortable(’:
not gonna lie...this is actually a pretty interesting premise for a game show

BLM has been playing this for years
Is it? Because did you care about anything he mentioned, would anyone really give a shit.
When was the last time the news ever made you snap?
It makes me think of the College Humor sketch "Why Is This Trending?"
Bowen is just channeling that 2013 Bill Hader game show host energy. "In a word? Chaos".
" mom and pickle ball curious " lol
Crazy to see Bowen's rise. Has become a star before our eyes
Nope.
@@Gozerthegozarian1984 You're a Grumpy Gus
I feel like this one was Bowens idea. He's really shining this season.
First actual laugh this got out of me was Keenan's first line. "Ah, yes I sure did. God bless America." He is just so reliably the best in any skit.
New cast member was so excited for his first "live from New York, its Saturday Night" 😂
"Take yo ass to Mars then!"
I wholeheartedly agree lol.
I thought he said we’ll “kick yo ass to Mars”! 😂
“When Joe Biden was born we didn’t have highways.”
I can’t breathe… that was amazing!😂👏🙌
I remember “John McCain is older than FM radio.”
@@Ericwvb2 yeah, but he's dead
So no one knows the road network is called the Dwight D Eisenhower interstate and defense Highway system?

So happy Bowen Yang is getting way more airtime this season!
I'm not
Yeah it’s like half the main cast from last year is gone….
@Michael Whitted I don't think most people know who he is or that he's gay. It could be because he's Asian or something innocuous like him being a nobody.

Kenan, immediately sweeping the table after hearing Musk’s name, HILARIOUS! 🤣
“Take your ass to Mars then!” 🤣
Awwww the new guy got to say it and you can tell how excited he is about it 🥰🥰🥰
That new cast member looks like if Michael Shea and Pete Davidson had a kid together 🤣😂
Chad should’ve been on this show.
😂😂😂 this is entirely too real. I hope this becomes a regular skit
No shortage of material
I feel like I've already been playing the at-home edition.
The Mario to hitting a frontier flight attendant pipeline
Bowen is enjoying this a little too much 😂
He probably pitched and wrote it. Plus, I'm guessing this is his first cold opening where he's the star and not a side character with a memorable appearance, like that Hell cold opening where he played the guy who came up with "Baby Shark".
Amazing to have back (thanks from the UK!) we all need a little bit of this in our lives to keep a grip on reality and our sense of humour ❤️
One more thing. I hope they do a version of this game show once a week
This had some therapy value. I agree. Bring it back again.
Chloe Fineman is so beautiful!
Bowen nailed it!!!
"Rich people talking about going to Mars. Well take your ass to Mars then." 🤣🤣🤣
Absolutely loved the Kenan and Bowen portion of the sketch! Absolutely hysterical!
I'm in love with Heidi Gardner
"This week Elon Musk"
*screams*
*shoves everything*
Yeah, pretty much.
Also that really feels like Kenan breaking character.
The look on his face 😂😂😂 as he did it he was trying SO hard not to laugh
"So you think you won't Snap" is the best game show parody since Jeopardy. More Morgan Freegirl in the future.😂
4:43 This is exactly how i feel about the Musk too. So perfect.
"I'm not doing anything..."
"There must be a good reason..."
"That's a great question!"
Bowen's delivery is brilliant!
Kenan’s held that inside for a while.
Bowen smiling cheerily through everything makes it.

Congratulations to Bowen Yang on his 150th sketch appearance on SNL. He is the best SNL cast member. 😄😆🥳🥳🎈🎈
He really is!!! Hope he becomes the new Beck. He's fantastic
Bowen Yang is a freaking comic genius!

No this was the only good part. SNL sucks.
Kenan! Your character is me lololol my boyfriend laughed so hard 🤣 you are goat man

Absolutely everything about this was perfect.
An Asian talk show host named Morgan Freegirl making people snap. Way to go SNL!
Love SNL. This skit was decent but could have been a spectacular classic. Please do it again...
We’ll show and 80 year only and episode of euphoria is a truly incredible line

@@DaveCM me too. Didn’t get that one. Kind of a let down after a great sketch
Bowen is awesome! I hope to see him in more skits like this.

The set builders are amazing. Someone should make a documentary about how quickly they “slap together” sets.
For the record the Kerch Bridge wasn't blown up, it was tactically redeployed to the bottom of the waterway for anti-submarine efforts.
👍👍😂😂😂😂😂😂
"That man needs to shut his mouth" is my default response now to everything Musk says.
If we can get Paramount and SEGA to redesign Sonic, we can get Illumination Studios and Nintendo to fix Mario's voice and maybe even get Charles Martinet to re-dub the voice
This was a great premise, and gotta say that set was quality! Cool lighting
Bowen. Forever.
The Elon Musk part was so satisfying.

"just in case you need to use it on.. your hand!" such good delivery by bowen, literally shining this season
Great game show and fantastic host 🎉
I think this would work as a game show. It's the opposite of Make Me Laugh.
Bowen nailed this. Every second.

watching this after the debate, hits hard.
Bowen looks like he’s about to break out into maniacal laughter after every snap and I’m living for it.
I really like this new season so far, Bowen, Chloe, and Kenan have been holding it together
This needs to be a real game show!!
Definitely one of the best skits I've seen in a while!
So happy for Bowen
This is unironically an awesome idea for a gameshow
