longfellow's a great addition. something about his delivery reminds me so much of norm. "yknow, those tophat people touch me; that's probably why i drink." 😂
Yeah, that'd be great..... however, I've read a few comments here, from different people, saying that he's, unfortunately, leaving at the end of the season. Thankfully I couldn't find any evidence of that myself, so hoping they're just misimformed.🤞
The tragedy of the groundhog's life, balanced with his sheer vulgarity and cynicism...left me with a depth of discomfort that I associate with some of Bobby Moynihan's best characters. Nicely done Michael haha
So often when people go on Update as characters they try hard to be funny or adorable, because the point is to win the audience over. I liked this with Michael just going out of his way to be unnerving, while still seeming natural and confident.
There is some cuteness there, with Longfellow dressed more like a Sylvanian Family figurine rather than an actual groundhog, but it's undercut with the deadpan, cynical humor.
Michael Che did a good job with his timing and comedic support here. Reading and delivering the jokes solo is one thing, but this had some dialogue-reactions.
Michael L HAS to be the next weekend update host. Who else is gonna be able to carry on the torch of offensive humor that is SO desperately needed on Weekend Update? Sarah is also a good candidate, as well. Co host? They could drag each other like Dan Akroyd and Jane Curtin. 😂
Poppa, momma, and Baby mole were stuck in the entrance hole. Poppa said, that smells like bacon. Momma said, no I think it's eggs. Baby, from the rear, chimed in, I think its' molasses!!!
This was great. 😂 I wish they would have made a joke about how the Canadian groundhog counterpart, Fred la Marmotte, was “found dead” before his prediction.
‘I’m not a bad groundhog, I just like good beaver.’ I should not have been drinking water when he said that 😂😂😂😂
Feel like the censor guy did the same thing at the same t8ne.
Ditto! 🤣🤣🤣
Great setup for that joke.
I Was Smoking 😆 🤣 😂 and Started Choking Laughing At That Line
I think this whole bit was set up around that joke! Brilliant!
Michael is amazing so far. So good at these depressed/cynical characters. He takes his time and makes his deliveries pop.
the vaping was a brilliant touch
He’s not coming back next year. Funny guy, but his timing is good for his stand-up, not SNL.
@@cwg73160 whaaaat? Nahhh, you can't be serious! I don't want him to leave!
I was wondering what the word was to describe his attitude and you nailed it.
This kid has a lot of potential
longfellow's a great addition. something about his delivery reminds me so much of norm. "yknow, those tophat people touch me; that's probably why i drink." 😂
Lol
snon: I don't get it.
It's Norm with a dash of Michael Ian Black
I can hear that line in Norms voice 😅
"those tophat people" 🤣
"you heard me" what a great, talented, comedic timing 💯
"I'm not a bad ground hog, I just like good beaver!" 😜
Love seeing Michael doing more and more, he kills me fr
Actually, he's been blatantly underused this season.. not a good sign
"I'm like a condom in Nick Cannon's wallet" - Phil
BRUH 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That cannon ain’t shooting blanks. I’m surprised Ukraine isn’t demanding his presence.
@@CorePathway Good one.
they used that same joke on american auto last week
this was hilarious. His delivery was so dry and the writing was witty
I could see Longfellow doing Weekend Update one day; his delivery would be perfect.
I was thinking that too...he could host it with Sarah Sherman
Yeah, that'd be great..... however, I've read a few comments here, from different people, saying that he's, unfortunately, leaving at the end of the season. Thankfully I couldn't find any evidence of that myself, so hoping they're just misimformed.🤞
@@dorothycontrino i doubt thats true it seems like he's really enjoying it
Michael Longfellow is sooo good. More, more, more of him please
"Alcohol -- the only cool way to wet the bed." Truth from the groundhog.
only funny part
Well, I can think of one other way but my girlfriend gets embarrassed by it
@@ChrisAguilar504 Gross
I still like The Simpsons version: "To alcohol: the cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems."
@@canaisyoung3601 The Simpsons really is the source of much great wisdom.
Touching the grass, eating the grass and smoking the grass...words to live by 💜💜💜
Michael is really funny in these segments as himself, but I think he'd do great as characters too like Cecily did
trying to compare this moron too Cecily?
Nah, Michael is the "straight man." You need a straight man to juxtapose with everyone's wacky characters, it's what makes them work.
@@jesse_cole I think he's got more range than that.
Too white... too straight.. they wont make him lead
Stop, how you can compare this to Cecily
"Honestly I'm seeing shadows everywhere" got me 🤣
The tragedy of the groundhog's life, balanced with his sheer vulgarity and cynicism...left me with a depth of discomfort that I associate with some of Bobby Moynihan's best characters. Nicely done Michael haha
the new cast members are killing it!
Damn he freaking nailed that last line like a comedic machine gun

"Cool if I do a bump real quick?" Was so out of left field 😂
It was random and all over the place and absolutely hilarious. He’s very talented.
"I'm not a bad ground hog I just like a good beaver " 😂 I need that on a shirt
Can you explain the joke please?
I was indifferent until he gave that “beaver” line. Then I just burst out laughing lol
We need more Longfellow!! Love his cynical dead pan comedy. 😊
This new guy Michael Longfellow is amazing. Love his style.
I've watched every video from last night 2X. It's too cold to go outside, I smoking legal weed and laughing laughing laughing! Thank you, SNL!!!
Michael Che did a good job with his timing and comedic support here. Reading and delivering the jokes solo is one thing, but this had some dialogue-reactions.
“You know those top hat guys touched me, that’s why I’m like this”
“What?”
“You heard me…”
"I'm not a bad groundhog,
I just love Goood beaver!"
Too bad SNL doesn't do merch: I'd buy THAT for a dollar!
Too bad good beaver costs more than a dollar.
😂🤣
😆 now that one is from wayyy back. 💙
@@marisgoldenhour6212 wondered if anyone would hear the echo! Nice ear!
This was informative and funny, way to knock it out the park. We need more Michael and Micheal skits.
When he ask Mike did he wanna do a bump 😂 💀💀💀
"Punxsutawney Phil! she knows what she signed up for"
michael longfellow is one of my favorite new cast members. fav quirked up white boy
Michael L HAS to be the next weekend update host. Who else is gonna be able to carry on the torch of offensive humor that is SO desperately needed on Weekend Update? Sarah is also a good candidate, as well. Co host? They could drag each other like Dan Akroyd and Jane Curtin. 😂
Yes! Great idea! I'd love to see that.
please can they get rid of Sarah! wtf so terrible
I'd love to see that dynamic between them, nothing has topped the passive animosity of Curtin/Aykroyd lol
I was just thinking that.
Michael and Marcello.
“Honestly, I see shadows everywhere.” I hear ya, Phil!
Guys don't panic the core is fine it just slowed down and it does that all the time it'll probably speed up again at some point don't worry about it
when ?......
@@billytoffingham9608 about 35 years
“Dusty poor ones” that’s so funny
Lol. Love this. Punxsutawney Phil accurate beyond the shadow
"I just live good beaver." 🤣🤣🤣
Weak audience for one of the funniest weekend update characters in a while. Michael's delivery is 11/10
michael longfellow is a fantastic addition
Phil is chill yo.
grass
The speed of these uploads… bless🙏🏼
I couldn’t stop 😂 I kept thinking it was over but when it wasn’t it became even funnier!
Every time he nudges Michael Che with his furry little elbow, I take a bump
Please give us six more seasons of bits like this, SNL.
Michael is so great! One of the best new cast members
Unexpectedly hilarious!
Micheal is the funniest new cast member by miles
I agree ☝️ 💯
That first vape hit was on point
"I'm not a bad groundhog I just like good beaver" shouldve gotten a bigger 😂😂
i absolutely love michael!! he has a certain bill hader energy he brings to this role too!
I need him and John mulaney in a sketch
his delivery was excellent...this dude funny.
Poppa, momma, and Baby mole were stuck in the entrance hole.
Poppa said, that smells like bacon.
Momma said, no I think it's eggs.
Baby, from the rear, chimed in, I think its' molasses!!!
1:19 well, looks like we all owe a certain 2003 Aaron Eckhart movie an apology for criticizing its scientific inaccuracy
please bring this character back, not just at the beginning of the year haha
I never thought I would agreeing with a groundhog talk about how much the world is changing.
This guy has it all figured out. 💯
I literally had tears in my eyes I was laughing so hard when I watched this 😂😂😂
This was great. 😂 I wish they would have made a joke about how the Canadian groundhog counterpart, Fred la Marmotte, was “found dead” before his prediction.
I had to come back!! Too funny!!! ❤️
1:41. I once read that under all of the gray dust there is orange soil on The Moon, but without an atmosphere nothing can grow from it.
Did you?
Did you really read that?
* lowers spectacles a bit*
* looks over top of spectacles *
Really?
(Yes, they are half moon glasses)
Michael Longfellow did a good job on the Weekend Update desk and he's the best cast member of the season.😃
I absolutely adore him
Punxsutawney phil and Mike McDaniel- masters of hiding vape pens 😏
My what a saucy groundhog 😂🍻
I never thought Che being uncool possible, but he swatted at that vapor like it's cigar smoke. 🤮🤣
that hit
This guy gets better and better.
as a Pennsylvanian, this is so accurate
I'm just glad that SNL was finally able to find a replacement for Norm Macdonald
i think this groundhog is my spirit animal
Ty for specifying which type of SW planet you were referring to 😆
-14 in Wisconsin and New York is all like winters gone. Come visit... a foot of snow and freezing.
Nothing Like Good Beaver!
Could not have resisted the thumbnail 😂😂
They need to give those writers what they deserve. I saw this again last night on SNL and it is hysterical.
Omg that beaver line had me rolling
I'm so glad I decided to watch this one 😂
Not the Air Drop of Ranch!! 😅😂
Yeah 6 more weeks !!! AMEN ☦️🇺🇲❤️ Philadelphia USA
Mandatory support comment for Michael. He crushed it this segment.
Outstanding! 🤣🤣🤣
This new guy is pretty good... i like his whole vibe whenever he's been on update.
not the beaver part 😂
Killed it
I'm stoned but it looks like the punisher emblem on the groundhogs chest😂
dude got chops - love to see it
I want Punxsutawney Phil and Kyle's Baby Yoda to hang out.
Omar’s congress seat available: yes for shadow and no for no shadow..🍿
Michael is fantastic
Michael Longfellow is Goated
As a truck driver who frequents the Pennsylvania turnpike, I can confirm you do see groundhogs quite often
The dusty poor Star Wars planets are where the best stories are, e.g. Mandalorian, another oblique Pedro Pascal reference.
Lmfao!! 😂🤣🤣 This was great!!
He is fucking hilarious, so glad he joined the cast
Those top hat people touch me that's probably why I drink! 🤣
The top hat guys touch me lmfao 🤣
"We live in a simulation!" Yes, it is possible we are two dimensional beings.
We do actually live in a simulation, ya know....Hah!!!
😂😂😂
This guy reminds me of Norm McDonald.
