I love how its a skit designed to be rejected, but in the end they still get 4 and a half minutes of Andy and Bill running around with cats shooting lasers on air. Its so damn genius
Imagine going to the park and seeing some kids playing around and shooting eachother with fake guns. As you get closer you realise that no, those aren't kids playing with fake guns, it's Bill Hader and Andy Samberg shooting people with toy cats.
So compelling, what a twist at the end. Where are the tissues, I’m not crying, you’re crying! Oscars, emmy’s, Grammys, Tony’s, and everything to LASER CATS!!!! So amazing!
If my cat is shouting at me I pick her up and pretend she's a gun (I don't hurt her, she's just a bit pissed) This sketch reminded me of very careful wars my brother and I did
Fun fact: Lorne Michaels was a fan of Monty Python’s Flying Circus. A lot of the early seasons were influenced by Monty Python’s absurd style of humor.
All these years later and I still think it’s significantly looked over that they switch cats everytime the camera cuts to them. Real,fake, different colors. It’s so fucking funny.
The *only thing* that could have ever made it worth it for me to stay in NYC for a few days would have been seeing this happen. If I could have gone for a walk and stumbled onto seeing those two *doing this* in The Park.
Hey Seth, if you read these comments, here's a Correction: you keep saying backslash in the ad reads in the podcast. they're supposed to be forward slashes
Watched this a billion times but now I want to know who in the snl office brought in the live cats. Would love it if they genuinely belonged to Andy and Bill 😄
@@amyb1078I feel like they surely would’ve had to have used trained actor cats. The fact that the real cats weren’t in so many shots kinda suggests they weren’t trained but that could’ve just been intentional comedic choice plus 90% of the shots were obviously too rough to even use real versions. SNL is loaded I’m just assuming they’d pay for the trained ones for general safety
They are trained cats from a animal actor agency, but the picture of the cat from the screen with the with the nuclear explosion is apparently Jorma Taccone's actual cat, Willie (and the original laser cat apparently).
Absolutely love how this is the most you ever see Lorne on camera. For *this* short. His dance with Wiig when she, Sudeikis & Samberg left counts bigtime, but not the same sorta thing. Think he was in an opening monologue on the sidelines with a few of tha dudes when Maya hosted too.
I like how they switched between real and fake cats
Real Cats with Lazers are Amazingk! but, you can rapid fire with fake cats :-D
Did you not see them switching from fake to real
Wait, I thought they were real cats the whole time...those special effects really were incredible!
Um no they didnt
Yeah, like Toonces The Driving Cat
I love how its a skit designed to be rejected, but in the end they still get 4 and a half minutes of Andy and Bill running around with cats shooting lasers on air.
Its so damn genius
And they made five more

Jimothy ok this is the best UA-cam comment ever
I honestly wouldn’t be surprised those two are almost completely responsible for gen z humor
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH
@Max William Lauf ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Out there demonstrating their 2nd Catmendment rights, baaarother
Who else thinks bill and Andy made this in their free time
I do. You have my vote.
It was actually Jorma's idea
Me
nobody?, they are getting paid for this
@@mausepulin "nobody?" -- he says on one of the highest voted comments on the page.
What makes this great is that it has that feel of a highschool project film.
with a lot of (comedic) talent :)
I love when they cocked the cats like they were guns
It's because they're Laser Cats!
Shotguns - loading a shell into the chamber.
so stupid, it's actually amazing
So stupid I wasn't amused. It was amazing though.
also Cats with Lazers(!) is amazingk!
This sketch has powerful Troy and Abed energy
So true
thankyou for this comment, this is exactly what my subconscious was thinking of
ahhhhhh!!! it so is!!!
Hader is Abed, and Samberg is Troy. They’re even dressed along the same lines.
Kick puncher.
3:14 a live remake of Eddie Kaspbraks death scene in It: Chapter 2(2019)
THAT'S WHAT I WAS THINKING
Tru
Ok that comment was uncalled for
Nova Supreme i’m sorry i’m not emotionally stable either
you didn’t have to do that
This is where my Bill Hader crush began. 12 years and still going strong
Dang. I didn’t start crushing until It came out
I’ve been crushing him since Superbad. * Sorry bad english
This is exactly what goes through my mind at 3 am when I'm trying to sleep
Same lmfao!!
It's 3 AM and I'm watching laser cats
Just want to point out that that's EMMY award-winning Bill Hader right there. EMMY award-winning Bill Hader.
Thank you for your consideration.
But seriously, going from watching Barry to watching this is such a freakin' trip. How polar-opposite can Barry and Laser Cats get?!
now two-time emmy award winner bill hader
ahem- you forgot golden globe winning andy samberg
@@irreplaceable02 yes!! I was about to mention that. Both such amazing actors. Finally they are getting recognition.
You mean they only got accolades ONCE for this masterpiece?!
young bill and andy lookin like a couple of snaccs
Teshura Rose they are constant snaccs
tgey still are
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
God you're right
*snacKs
the continuity errors are making my eyes water
Liz Xu list them!
...in nostalgia?
when he throws him the spare, the shot in the air is the orange cat and he catches the white one 😂😂😂
Seeing Bill's cry-face after watching Barry is so surreal
2:07 "I don't-what is that?"
Sofea Khan
Hahahahaha, honestly man I don’t know either.
This was bill and Andy fulfilling their Nerd dreams while being extremely adorable.
My two fav SNL cast members in one skit? Be still my heart. 🥰
This is one of the greatest examples of "so dumb it's genius"/anti-humor/ironic comedy.
Thanks for explaining the joke
It's funny how they used the SNL headquarters to shoot this video.
I can't wait to hear Andy discuss this short on the Lonely Island and Seth Meyers podcast
Bill+Andy=Gold
if u don’t love me at my 2006 andy samberg u don’t deserve me at my 2019 andy samberg
*2024
It’s so much funnier when you pay attention to the color of cat they’re holding as it keeps changing when they switch to real cats.
2:38 Bill's cutest smile I ever seen 😍
We need a 2 hour version film of laser cats with exactly this quality
So compelling, what a twist at the end. Where are the tissues, I’m not crying, you’re crying! Oscars, emmy’s, Grammys, Tony’s, and everything to LASER CATS!!!! So amazing!
And a Peabody!
I just genuinely believe Bill looked so awesome and adorable in this hairstyle.
someone should make a laser cats video game
Exploding kittens
Well, there was this really old, poorly made DOS and Mac game called Kitten Shaver....and yes, it does what it says on the tin...
Lorne's expressions are always hilarious, too!
Lorne Michaels' face expression is PRICELESS, makes me laugh out loud
If my cat is shouting at me I pick her up and pretend she's a gun (I don't hurt her, she's just a bit pissed)
This sketch reminded me of very careful wars my brother and I did
Whale Sharko sometimes I like to pretend my cat is a guitar
@@AurenGlytterkat haha, same or piano
That's so cute and funny lmao i love cats 🐱
imagine if Andy still had his 2013 hair on Brooklyn 99
b99 started in 2013 so he does have his 2013 hair in the show, just not in the later seasons
Episode is from 2006
Another fool who thinks the UA-cam upload date is the actual air date...
@@TRJ2241987 you would if you never watched the show
What a great job these guys have! They're just adult kids having fun and broadcasting it to us the viewers
Laser cats is so underrated. I’d watch this show. 😂
I would honestly be super interested in an sci-if ironic huge budget version of this
That would be the best 😂
If Bill and Andy didn't want to be involved, who would you cast as Nitro and Spaceship?
Bill's acting at the end was really good!
Where’s my Seth Myers Lonely Island podcast boys at?
Lonely island pod gang
6 seasons and a movie

Underrated comment
Bill’s fake cry looked real! Even though this is supposed to be bad, he’s still so good 😩😂
A great short.
I mean it’s no Handlebar and Lobster Claw but what ya gonna do 🤷🏼♂️
They need to make Laser Cats into a REAL Movie!!! id watch that!
Seems more like Anime material
how the hell does it sound like anime material
At first I was like.... "how could that be anime?" I can totally picture some Japanese Steampunk Anime doing this.
Tristan Cooper lets donate all the money to the laser cats movie omg
@@FxBrour Nope, just like this. All the low budget graphics and bad acting included.
When bill showed more emotion over andy getting shot by laser cats than he did as richie when eddie died
EXCUSE ME!!!!
wow the lineup on the billboard, ashlee simpson, franz ferdinand, sheryl crow? this is a time capsule
Best workplace ever!!!
Hollywood, make it happen.
Okay but I’d absolutely watch a full budget full time version of this
just now noticing the musical guest lineup behind bill, with "ashlee simpson" d'oooooops
3:30 still better love story than Twilight
When I first saw Twilight, I thought it was the most boring thing I had ever seen. I thought, “Surely, the book has to be better.” How wrong I was!
Lasers & cats! Best film of the decade 👌 👏 🙌 ❤️ 👍 😍
What are the two things that everyone loves? The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers. Sound off podcast listeners!
How can laser cats 🐈 run out of bullets
the x-box live mic really takes me back lmao
It is like Monty Python, super absurd
Fun fact: Lorne Michaels was a fan of Monty Python’s Flying Circus. A lot of the early seasons were influenced by Monty Python’s absurd style of humor.
All these years later and I still think it’s significantly looked over that they switch cats everytime the camera cuts to them. Real,fake, different colors. It’s so fucking funny.
lohan was so pretty
Prettiest woman in Hollywood at one point
*Lorne
Andy is so precious ❣️
How does this not have more views??? I saw this on TV and I loved it
As long as we have cats with the ability to shoot lasers out of their mouths, we’ll be okay.
They asked Lindsay who she'd have sex with.
Love how the guy walking down the hall in the background gets shot by the laser and falls to the ground.
those cats are so cute.
I love how Bill's headset is the old Xbox 360 headset. Perfect touch 🤣🤣👍
The *only thing* that could have ever made it worth it for me to stay in NYC for a few days would have been seeing this happen. If I could have gone for a walk and stumbled onto seeing those two *doing this* in The Park.
I remember when these skits would come on, my mom would go “this is stupid, I’m not watching this”
😂😂😂
Lindsay’s greatest role yet.
Hey Seth, if you read these comments, here's a Correction: you keep saying backslash in the ad reads in the podcast. they're supposed to be forward slashes
I love you
Now that is just Richie and Eddie in IT chapter 2
this was a decade ago...
more than that now!
You must not be very good at math
hzl blt 12 years ago now
but he was right?
sup, from the future
2013 is the best snl. Andy, bill, will, fred all in one video. love.
This is from 2006.
Lorne watching it with the expression of a cat watching you do the dishes.
thats TWO TIME emmy award winner bill hader and GOLDEN GLOBE winning andy samberg
Watched this a billion times but now I want to know who in the snl office brought in the live cats. Would love it if they genuinely belonged to Andy and Bill 😄
I don't know, but the orange cat in particular looked very comfortable in Bill's arms.

Why did they take down the original and repost it this used to have like 20 million views
As
It
deserved
2:24 the cat's face omg
Best part was from 3:01 on when Samberg threw Hader a brown and white cat, then in subsequent shots it shifted between all white and white and brown.
It was so deliberate and I love it
Everyone talks about the lasers and the cats but I'm here for the tiny cups of popcorn😂
bill is rockin that crop top
This is actually one of my new favorite videos
Love youtube for the fact that that I can still come across gems I've not seen before
Is it just me but who cried at the end. That acting is- amazing
I love how the other cast members also starred in their videos.
Absolutely love how this is the most you ever see Lorne on camera. For *this* short.
His dance with Wiig when she, Sudeikis & Samberg left counts bigtime, but not the same sorta thing.
Think he was in an opening monologue on the sidelines with a few of tha dudes when Maya hosted too.
And it was on VHS. And Lorne had a VCR all hooked up and ready in his office.
This old youtube ascetic is such a time capsule.
i love this series haha
Idk if it was intentional that Bill pronounced nuclear “nucular” but it made it infinitely funnier either way
Finally, I got the time for "Laser Cats" marathon!
Great video to watch during the quarantine. Hello from April 2020!
I cannot decide whether this sketch is a Monty-Python masterpiece, or a film my friends could record in their garage during the 1990s.
Monty Python was basically a group of friends filming in their garage, so not to far off lol
"DAMN, these Laser Cats!!" 🐈 😄
Bill hader and Andy samberg were my heroes
Too much lasers. Not enough cats.
I just found Laser Cats yesterday and now.. I can't live without them.
0:37 *crush intensifies*
Thats my dad on the right at 3:36. Passed away a few years ago from cancer.
3:32 I call this: low budget death of Eddie kasprak
the best idea I've ever seen, it is the pinacle of human thinking
Still better laser effects than battlefield earth
that musical lineup on the board was insane
The best part was you couldn't tell the CGI cats from the real ones. That's dedication.
