Sarah's performance would've been impressive in any tv show, movie, or even live theater. The fact that she had little to no rehearsal time yet moves throughout the set as if she's done this months is what makes her such a brilliant performer! Simply incredible
@@danamardell1209 they've done videos about the process of filming each skit. They're written week by week and the cast usually only gets a few days to film everything.
@@Dark0beast That's pretty normal for TV regardless. On a regular TV show you often don't even know what scene(s) you're shooting until the day before.
@Carli DiGiovanni I think it’s better that she didn’t have months to practice this. It’s so much better that this is the first live take, as it’s fresh & she’s just going with it. Sure she practiced, but it’s different once you’re on set & the camera is rolling & the live audience is ready to laugh.
When I was younger, I glued googly eyes onto an expired driver's license, and when I would get carded, I would hand them that one and while they're looking at it I'd turn away and stick big googly eyes onto my eyes and wait for them to look back at me
the way Sarah shakes her head so that her eyes bobble while shouting "I'm leaving, not with disgrace, but with dignity, elegance, and class" is maybe the funniest thing of all time
That's why Sarah got hired, which is odd, because she admitted that her weirdo videos kept her from being employed. I guess that only applied to normal 9 to 5 jobs and not something like SNL, which probably is normal on the inside, but outside and according to a lot of interviews, documentaries, and that book "Live from New York: The Uncensored History of Saturday Night Live", isn't all that normal.
I love how the idea started from something as simple as a phrase. Really makes the scene tighter. That’s what humor is missing these days. Good job crew!
@@FlameOnTheBeat He said "normal". The Adult Swim sketch you mentioned probably wouldn't be allowed on SNL unless it was pretaped or they toned some of it down.
She'll win something huge for this. I don't know what. Awards, accolades, probably her pick of movies to star in, maybe even the Update desk, I'm not joking. That was an extremely amazing performance and she did it blindfolded. No cue cards. No camera-finding, nothing. Sarah Sherman is really something special. Wow.
Exactly. Most of the new cast is just not funny to me. Only Colin, Che and Sarah make me laugh. This cast will never achieve the likes of Bill Hader, Will Ferrell and those icons back in the days
@@FlameOnTheBeat have you seen the episode that Babish did where he recreated it? (I think it was because he reached 1 million subscribers? I could be wrong about that) And of course he was expecting it to be disgusting lol. But I don't want to give any spoilers away for that video (which is great!) and I think everyone should watch it and it was just a really fun video! Definitely a great watch for anyone that loves that Taco Town sketch and would be brave enough to want to try it!
The thing I love about Sarah is how she gives her roles 110%. She's really good at the format, is quick, and seems to really learn the dialogue. Her sense of humor is so unique too. Great job on whoever got her on the cast.
Coke, weed, acid, and the occasional shot of alcohol. It was all outlined in the book, "Live from New York: The Uncensored History of Saturday Night Live"
Her appearance with the googly eyes was so hilarious, and Sarah Sherman put her all into selling it. She's going to be great once SNL gets used to her style. Eventually she'll be a star, not buried at the end of the show.
Sarah being able hold it together that whole time during the skit with googly eyes on her is just amazing! It shows the talent of the actors and cast members on this show and how they always make us laugh!
@@burgerpowder8 I agree with you completely,I've always always watched SNL since I was about 10 years old but to be honest I think I'm gonna stop watching it.after 30 years of being a loyal fan I kinda give up,they are more interested in pushing their woke agenda instead of being funny and I can't take it anymore.they say that nbc is very seriously cancelling it after this season and even though I hate to say it I think they should.there is a reason so many of the main cast left in the off-season this year even they know it sucks and is a sinking ship.
Man i swear when she first popped her head up and i saw those googly eyes and she started bouncing her head around making the eyes move i hit the floor laughing for almost 15 min 😂😭
An absolutely brilliant and astonishingly fresh sketch. Quite the performance too to remember it all by heart while blindly going through the movements. S-tier
I was hoping this would be good but I instanly hated that whole room. People commenting that she can't see and doing this blind is what makes this so great. Are you not seeing the damn eye holes? The only good delevery was Keenan. Have Will Ferrall do this same bit and I bet it would be comedy gold. FIre the whole team, start over.
Two words for Sarah Sherman-- COMEDIC GENIUS! A true natural and a modern day Gilda Radner of this generation of SNL. She's one of the best in the cast!
Sarah Sherman is now one of my favorites. She's so funny and an excellent performer. I loved the Chucky skit she did and when she was one of the twin babies skit she did when Selena Gomez was babysitting. 😂😊
The horror of imagining it's real, the hilarity of the premise and script, the awe of witnessing a stage performance of a sighted person getting through the whole thing without sight. Those are the three pillars of comedy. Totally nailed it.
Sarah Sherman is a clear stand out since she joined the cast! Most of the other newbies don't have anywhere near the comedic energy and charisma she brings to the table.
Someone: It’d be so hard to get through an entire sketch without cue cards
Sarah: Wanna bet👁👁
She just wrote her lines on the back of those huge googly eyes. 😛
Oh, like McCaulay who was supposedly forced to memorise all lines by his dad :(
There’ll be a tiny wee pinprick hole in the back of the eyes so she can see her way around at least
@@GregorBarclay no way these are googly eyes
Sarah: Super easy, barely an inconvenience!
Sarah's performance would've been impressive in any tv show, movie, or even live theater. The fact that she had little to no rehearsal time yet moves throughout the set as if she's done this months is what makes her such a brilliant performer! Simply incredible

@Ryani
I thought it was live, as in Saturday Night LIVE. As in either a live audience or it’s filmed live, not filmed & then televised later.
Prosthetics team did a great job
Emmy secured.
Denver: Prothetics team did a great job.
I know right 😂😂
No, those are her real eyes.
Yeah
Sarah Sherman is the best thing that's happened to SNL in ages.
When you can tell it's a sketch Sherman wrote from the title and thumbnail alone.
LMAO FACTS
Yup. It’s the only way she can get cast in a skit. She’s horrible
@@davidbilu1166 Ew, go away.
@@somefreshbread I want to like her and I do but ideas like this just don't land
@@lizardmandx agreed! I think she is great, but I'm just personally not a fan of dumb humor like this.

No, you didn't. But that's funnier than this sketch.
I'll take "things that never happened" for 200, alex
I want to do this
😂
If that’s true. You are a genius
Sarah Sherman deserves an Emmy for this performance
Wow, someone needs to watch more comedy. Lol
@@bboysfanatic No shit.
@@bboysfanatic do u need to be escorted to the door or something? like ur not being forced to watch snl if u don’t like it lol
@@eIliehehe Nope....just don't think it's "Emmy" worthy 🤣
@@eIliehehe I love SNL but this was... hard to watch
The rest of her scene partners struggle to even read cue cards and she is nailing the performance from memory. Kudos to the makeup dept!
the way Sarah shakes her head so that her eyes bobble while shouting "I'm leaving, not with disgrace, but with dignity, elegance, and class" is maybe the funniest thing of all time
The funniest thing of all time? Hardly. This skit was dumb.
The skit wasn't even funny? WTF are you talking about??
No it isn’t. You guys really need to stop kissing Sarah Sherman’s a$$ every time she squawks a line.
I am fascinated by the number of people who bother commenting that the sketch wasn’t good. People are aware that comedy is subjective, right?
If by that you mean the only remotely funny part of the entire sketch
"...And I'm going straight to church"." lol
Ah, yes, the light-hearted, surreal body horror comedy. Weird SNL is good SNL
That's why Sarah got hired, which is odd, because she admitted that her weirdo videos kept her from being employed. I guess that only applied to normal 9 to 5 jobs and not something like SNL, which probably is normal on the inside, but outside and according to a lot of interviews, documentaries, and that book "Live from New York: The Uncensored History of Saturday Night Live", isn't all that normal.
Keep SNL weird
@@canaisyoung3601 Yeah most jobs don’t like weird, but in comedy weird is often required
Right? This is exactly the unhinged madness I needed today.
Body horror humor is always funny! Reminds me of the "Massive Head Wound Harry" skit.
“What do you think about my new eyeballs?”
Kenan: And I’m going straight to church.
😂😂😂
Hey bud! Are you here?
Kenan enters the skit for only three seconds and that's enough to burst me laughing 😂
“And I’m goin’ straight to church.”
:) Total pro.
@@kylestubbs8867 wonder what he's confessing?
Best line of the sketch 😂😂
And when SNL does not have Kenan to save boring sketches like this...
I love how the idea started from something as simple as a phrase. Really makes the scene tighter. That’s what humor is missing these days. Good job crew!
I don't hate "Denver: Keep Austin Weird"
I mean, it wouldn't hurt the people of Denver to do their part to help keep Austin weird, right? 🤷♂️
So reminiscent of 90s SNL. I love this. Please let Sarah do more.
I hope her character is a recurring one!!! Just so good! Would also love to see more of what Sarah can do on the show.
She reminds me of OG Jim Carrey.
most normal Sarah Sherman sketch ever
@@FlameOnTheBeat He said "normal". The Adult Swim sketch you mentioned probably wouldn't be allowed on SNL unless it was pretaped or they toned some of it down.
Bring on the Squirm

Whatever. This was pure 💩.
She had all week to learn it.
That first glimpse of the googly eyes when it zooms in on her hiding her face 🤣
At 0:23
Googly Eyes! So childish, so stupid, and yet...............😝!!!!!!!!!!!
The commitment required to actually have your eyes surgically removed and replaced with googles.
She should get an EGOT for this performance.
She's quickly becoming the few people on the cast who actually makes me laugh. They need to let her go like this more often.
Exactly. Most of the new cast is just not funny to me. Only Colin, Che and Sarah make me laugh. This cast will never achieve the likes of Bill Hader, Will Ferrell and those icons back in the days
@@royroos8036 even last year was really funny but we lost all my favorites. This episode wasn't too bad but the miles teller one? Sheesh 🙄
No, no! They need to slowly acclimate us to it! YIKES!
That is a pretty low bar.
@@billzsigray1504 exactly
The food on snl always looks unnecessarily good
Literally came here to say that

i went straight to the kitchen and made a ginormous breakfast after watching this
Cinnamon streusel with a coffee sounds fire
Probably because it’s real.
Sarah Sherman is bringing fresh, original content back to the show. It’s refreshing.
She did the entire sketch with her eyes closed 😂😂😂
Yeah it still sucked
@@fl1ntlock1 lol
I think there's a little hole cut out but basically blind
The thing I love about Sarah is how she gives her roles 110%. She's really good at the format, is quick, and seems to really learn the dialogue. Her sense of humor is so unique too. Great job on whoever got her on the cast.
I don't know. She still seems quite wide-eyed to me
The way the pupils jiggled every time she moved her head 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You could even hear them jiggle. Lol!
This reminds me of very early Snl just throwing crazy coke ideas at the wall and seeing what sticks, It’s perfect.
Coke, weed, acid, and the occasional shot of alcohol. It was all outlined in the book, "Live from New York: The Uncensored History of Saturday Night Live"
It feels more like snl realized I Think You Should Leave is way funnier than snl has been in years
Crazy coke ideas, 🤣🤣🤣🤣. When you know, you know
It really does have classic snl energy. They should reuse this character with the eyes in a different scene. It's kind of great 😂
Sarah actually does an AMAZING job navigating the set and all the props considering she almost definitely couldn't see for real
2:09 "And I'm going straight to church"
I fucking died xD
the make-up team deserve several awards
They always do.
That's not makeup, that's method acting
It's not often that SNL skits are what I would call silly, but this one definitely is - the googly eyes just get you lauging...
Me after watching everything everywhere all at once
3:24 I like the extra detail that her jacket in the right corner does actually match the office drapes in style and color.😌👌🏾
I would’ve thought Mad-Eye Moody would have been a bit more sympathetic to someone with prosthetic eyes lol.
I’m crying I just laughed so hard 😭 thank you for that.
If a skit has Sarah Sherman you just know that there's gonna be some body horror
:) Yep, that's her thing.
And lameness.
@@dianapevtsov intredasting 🤔😏
"And I'm going to church." Perfect reaction from Kenan.
This was definitely written at 2am
Her appearance with the googly eyes was so hilarious, and Sarah Sherman put her all into selling it. She's going to be great once SNL gets used to her style. Eventually she'll be a star, not buried at the end of the show.
Never in a million years would I think I would be laughing at someone with googly eyes on in my 20's. Perfect writing.
You better plan on laughing at anything at any given time.
Your name implies otherwise
Your 4-20’s? Congrats 🎉 May god grant you another million and twenty years of life!
Sarah is so amazing! SNL definitely made a good choice in hiring her.
Denver: Keep Austin Weird.
and of course I will be taking my jacket!
Sarah being able hold it together that whole time during the skit with googly eyes on her is just amazing! It shows the talent of the actors and cast members on this show and how they always make us laugh!
No they had talented cast members but not really anymore besides Keenan.
this is probrably the worst comedy shows SNL has done yet, i thought last year was bad but this is an all time low

It's the only reason I chose to watch this. It didn't ruin anything - it was still surrealistically hilarious.
i love sarah sherman sketches so much, and this one did not disappoint 😂
Yes please! More silly and less pop culture reference! Silly is timeless! More Sarah Squirm in everything.
I hate to break it to you, but this skit was a subtle nod to reproductive rights. "Woman's body on trial"
@@myleschap7364 lol so subtle! You’re right. It’s a super serious tale of a woman and her eyes. Please excuse my veiled misogyny

need an episode with all casts and host with eyes like these
YESSSS!🤣

this probably sounded way funnier on paper than it ended up being for real
What?!? Things written or typed on paper don't have any SOUND to them!
Snl needs to protect this gem of a person and give her all the things.
Dang, I would totally forget to refrigerate my eyeballs.
The Avatar has returned. 🙏🏽
just realized she couldn’t read from the cue cards for this one since her eyes were shut. stellar!!!! she’s a star.
Wow this is the best new character I've seen in a long time!!! Bravoooooooo!!!!!👏👏👏👏
The SNL googly eyes gardener skit with Christopher Walken is also insanely funny!!!
So great! 😂
incredible incredible dumb sketch comedy I need this SNL every week
“Sorry I’m late, ehp-“ “And I’m goin’ straight to church.”
Sarah Sherman is now one of my favorites. She's so funny and an excellent performer. I loved the Chucky skit she did and when she was one of the twin babies skit she did when Selena Gomez was babysitting. 😂😊
The Chucky skit was good.
Chef Sherm cookin up more nightmares, now ive got hearteyes! 😍
Sarah’s “body horror comedy” is really growing on me…like a meatball!
Every comment on every SNL video..
“Everything about SNL sucks except for this one sketch/person that makes me laugh”
So funny how she adopts some muppet mannerisms.
"And I'm going straight to church!" 😂😂😂😂
I liked her the moment she first came on the show. She just has that IT factor, she's naturally funny.
Me too, I think she came on the during the lockdown episodes. Even just doing a sketch by herself was really creative and funny.
Sarah is one of the most fearless cast members we’ve seen since Kate McKinnon. I adore her 😂
So nice to see a sketch where at least one performer isn't staring at the cue cards 😁
really impressed with Sarah's ability to move around the set blinded like that, also the makeup people did an amazing job
still surreal seeing her on snl. super proud of her! representing us, the weirdos.
What. In. The. Actual. F. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sarah once again changing the game! Could not stop smiling!!!
The horror of imagining it's real, the hilarity of the premise and script, the awe of witnessing a stage performance of a sighted person getting through the whole thing without sight.
Those are the three pillars of comedy. Totally nailed it.
Kennan always saving the sketches
Sarah is the best SNL cast member since Lorraine Gilda and Jane together ❤️
Wow this sketch is so surreal and funny I’m surprised they didn’t cut it for time
They should have. It was lame.
denver - it's over your head
Sarah is a huge talent! She always nails it.
IDGAF this was fkn comedy gold! LMAOOO

😳Ohh NO🫢my eyes’s👀I 4got to put’em in the fridge Ohh my God NOoo🫣THEY’RE still good rite?Can u SMELL👃🏼THEM?
LMFAO👏🏼🤣
That felt like a community college sketch.
This shouldn't have worked at all. But dammit I laughed.
nah she ate that up. the fact that she remembered all that without one hiccup. she better get a raise . and put her in more sketches
This may just be the most impressive SNL sketch yet
How is she not a part of the main cast list.... she absolutely deserves it!
Yeah. With a large group of people gone (eight in all), she and James Austin Johnson should have been promoted.
That was unreasonably funny 😭😭😭
