Such a distinctive tone and after-taste to his comedy. Very pleasant. Does Mullaney ever vere into more substantive insights about the human condition, even obliquely ? e.g., His 19 yr. old fantasy vs. maturity ...and 'Old-Timey stuff'/Connecticut references maybe ...
There is nothing special about that particular line, he just had to re-establish the theme (which is the joke). There are enough noteworthy jokes in there, including that one, but that line as an aside is pure formal necessity (because that part took so long to say). You're incredibly dumb and impressionable, like a baby shown jingling keys or something.
My hubby just had to do one of those tests with the stop sign and I was cracking up because it gave it to him 4 times and he was getting so angry. Then i pulled up this Mulaney classic, and it changed his mood from upset to laughter in seconds. That's a gift I tell you.
I remember a time when everything felt SO freakin' urgent: there's only this moment, and it will shape my entire future! Kinda miss it, but don't miss some of the ill-advised decisions I made because of it.
@@TheKavuShow He's also not mean or vulgar. I'm not saying that's always a bad thing but a lot of comics use shock to get the laughs and it wears thin after a while.

I had ...something... of an occurrence like that once. I thought my best friend had just up and screwed me over after I bought him new tires in an emergency. I figured our friendship was over so I never called him. Turns out he got married to a psycho who was insanely jealous and overly controlling to the point where she wouldn't let him see his old friends. - He hasn't had the best of luck when it comes to relationships.
It’s what all comedians do.. especially during interviews. It can get kind of boring/weird watching an interview of someone and hearing the same rehearsed skit every time
I've been watching SNL for over 40 years. This is the ONLY monologue that ever made an impression on me. The gazebo bit was pure genius. Mulaney's timing and delivery are impeccable.
I know! His timing and wording are perfect, but he also has the ability not just to make everyday things funny but also notice a date on a random structure and realize that yes, they actually built a gazebo in the middle of the Civil War!
bergie you are right. Never forget George Carlin was once a guy doing "Indian Sarge" on Merv Griffin wondering when it was gonna get fun again or that Lewis Black was once an accountant (or similar). 😎
This is the best SNL monologue I've ever seen. Normally the monologues feel as if they've been thrown together at the last minute, and are embarrassing to watch. Mulaney, being a writer, clearly crafted every word of this carefully, and it shows.
I know what you mean. Even other actors tend to have monologues that make you think, "Yeah, you're definitely more comfortable in a role of some sort." You can tell John is very comfortable being himself in front of crowds.
... very comfortable being himself in front of crows. Even misreading the comments on Mulaney's monologue can be funny. I misread it because one would normally say "in front of a crowd."
John is INCREDIBLE. Obviously his material, but his delivery as well - you can feel the outrage and general fed-upness with humanity, and it is glorious
larshoneytoast33: If you're going to correct people, at least use proper sentence structure. You look like an ass with everything you failed to capitalize. You failed at punctuation as well.

@@TrueBlue170 Just watch his numerous stand-up specials on Netflix. There's like 3 or 4 of them, and also a brand new special called _John Mulaney and the Sack Lunch Bunch_ which I really cant describe...you have to just seek it out for yourself. It's like...a loose parody of 1970s/1980s _Sesame Street_ and _The Electric Company_ and that sort of show...
I only knew John Mulaney as the writer for Bill Hader's "Stefon" character and had never seem him perform himself. Wow. I've been over stand-up comics for years, but I could watch this routine over and over.
How tf can you be "over" stand-up comedians? This experience should have shown you how ridiculous that is. Stand-Up Comedy is so ridiculously diverse and each one is so different. That's like saying you're "over" music.
I was up in Connecticut doing white people stuff...Laugh my black ass off...always thought this dude was funny.... this really was best monologue this year.
I don't know who this guy is, and why is he hosting SNL, but I must admit the sketches this week are really good and I suspect this dude is the reason.
Normally I hate when standup comedians do part of their act at the opening of SNL (see the terrible first time Dane Cook hosted) but John is talented enough to get a pass.
I wanted to complain that this was all redone content from the show he just released, and how I would have liked original content for SNL. But. I still watched the entire thing and laughed, so I don't think I'm allowed to tbh.
After 6:20 I'm convinced John Mulaney would be the ultimate Riddler or the Mad Hatter for the DCEU... come on, give this man a role in a new Batman movie!
Has someone stolen Larry David's picture and UA-cam name, or is this THE Larry David of Seinfeld fame? How can we know? How many stop signs are in this comment?
This monologue made me fall in love with John Mulaney. Practically every one was on point and hilarious and I've been browsing UA-cam for his comedy ever since. Thanks for being a gem, John.
One time I was in class (mind you all the kids are a grade below me so I don’t really care) and was talking to somebody and said “ is this an E or a three” and my teacher looked at me and went “prove prove to me you’re not a robot” it was fantastic
I love John Mulaney because he makes the smallest things everyone's been through from time to time the most entertaining thing to hear someone talk about
Best thing about being old: Hearing a stand up comic recall obscure, inconsequential moments from television that you witnessed in their original iteration.
I don't remember whether if it was in New Kid In Town or Comeback Kid but that's the same monologue and I've seen it a thousand times and still makes me crack up, I love John 😂
{Motor Mafia} they we're created by humans but implemented and eventually blindly replicated by robots based on certain criteria. Which translates to "no" they can't solve it yet and they didn't created them.
Him and Nick Kroll in “Oh, Hello” is still a highlight of my recent Broadway shows. It was so much fun. He’s a real talent. I don’t know that there is a sitcom vehicle available for his style of comedy. Maybe a successor to Colbert?
John’s comedic style is mostly stating the obvious and speaking in an oddly formal tone and I love it
dont forget the amazing annectotes
YES
a lot of observational stand up comedy is just that
For a second i thought i mustve commented on this in my sleep lol
Yeah he's like an even whiter Seinfeld
john mulaney is such a wonderful, strange artifact, it's like he was frozen in the 50s and then they just unfroze him yesterday
Danielle Cyr Pretty sure he was raised in Chicago, since he talks about Chicago-area stuff regarding his childhood regularly.
He is Captain America.
Nyantee A I feel he is frozen in time but very current.. conflicting feelings
No, it's like he was sitting in a room on a chair eating saltines for 28 years
He’s like captain America but less punching and more sex jokes
The line “and my condolences again to everyone” is exactly what makes John a wonderful comic.
Christopher Edmiston Just a little extra to make The joke that more special. The black truffle butter on the already delicious steak.
Every line of this is what makes him a wonderful comic
Exactly. Such a subtle line and ingeniously snuck it in perfectly.
Such a distinctive tone and after-taste to his comedy.
Very pleasant.

John did a great job!!! One of the best monologues I've seen, I feel like a proud Aunty
Hilarious but he has feminine hips tbh
thats what he's sensitive about!!!!
NO! THATS THE THING HES SENSITIVE ABOUT!
@@magicalmalu *NO THAT'S THE ONE THING HE'S SENSITIVE ABOUT*
MechaHood are you a thirteen year old
Jackson T he was making a reference to the stand up, cause he was talking about how mean 13 year olds are
The last time I watched such a well-crafted monologue, it was delivered by a smooth 68 yr old Steve Martin. Mulaney is in rare company, indeed.
i’ve seen john retell the same joke so many times but he kills it every time
John mulaney’s eyebrows give me life.
This was a great platform for this performer to be introduced to people like me that had no idea who he was. I find him witty and hilarious!!
mac979s1 his special the comeback kid is fantastic. It’s on Netflix, if you like this, I’m sure you’ll love that as well.
Find him on Netflix!!
Go watch his Netflix specials!! He's honestly the funniest comedian I've seen (probably cause he has relatable jokes and his delivery too)
One of the best monologues I've seen in the decades I've been watching the show.
I never thought I would be saying the sentence "I love the way that guy personifies CAPTCHA tests." But here we are.
3:07 that whole line aged so wellll. he had a kid, did cocaine (a lot) and got unnecessary flu shots to get more drugs. People do change
But if I walked into the ocean: would people wave?
I would Tyrant-Dent. I would.
The water would at least have waves.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
No one's got the time anymore; too busy proving we're not robots.
Tyrant-Den The water certainly would.
Mulaney/Hader 2020!! #MakeAmericaSmileAgain
Deven Damji Can they win without the robot vote?
I mean, I'm not *not* smiling, because things are... funny, but not ha-ha funny.
Got my vote. At least then the laughs will be deliberate. And the tears from joy.
Jason Schulman and the laughing won't be directed at us from other countries lol
No NO MORE celebrities for potus. Lets have someone with experience and who isn't corruptible!
With musical guest... *DJ Baby Bok Choy*
you. i like you
So funny that my headache worsened :D
If you don’t have the robot bit at least partially memorized then we can’t be friends
The salt and pepper joke never ages. Makes me laugh everytime. Genius.
The tests are made by robots to decide if your a robot. If robots make them, can't they slove them. I need a moment,
No. Robots don't design the tests, number one, and you don't understand machine learning.
Someone programmed those robots to provide those tests...so...riddle solved.
{Motor Mafia} No, the picture tests are pre-written. The letter ones are generated.
{Motor Mafia} they we're created by humans but implemented and eventually blindly replicated by robots based on certain criteria. Which translates to "no" they can't solve it yet and they didn't created them.
The robots don't make the test; They ADMINISTER the test.
I really do want to walk into the ocean after writing that sentence.
Can John host every week
Now anytime someone says “gazebo” my brain says “THE GAZEBO!!” In John’s voice and I have the urge to scream it
One of a few hosts who use a mic that they have to hold. Gotta love the standup mentality!!!
Him and Nick Kroll in “Oh, Hello” is still a highlight of my recent Broadway shows. It was so much fun. He’s a real talent. I don’t know that there is a sitcom vehicle available for his style of comedy. Maybe a successor to Colbert?
Best monologue by far.
Brecov Eur His was good, if you ignore his anti-Semitic Nazi comments! Who does Larry David think he is, a Jew or something?
