As someone who loves musical theatre and the NFL almost equally (with almost no friends that share both those interests) the Super Bowl Broadway sketch spoke to my soul in ways I cannot describe.
Really? You thought that skit was "genius" ? Low bar, I guess. I failed miserably trying to find anything funny in this artless attempt at humor. Low bar, I guess.
Next time for my friend's party, I should take "the beautiful spirit of togetherness that makes us all part of the tapestry of humanity". Beautiful, I died laughing on the floor. Love them!
Is it The Cure ? While tune is very Depeche-y, the band behavior reminds me of The Cure. Just not entirely sure. Definitely a pretty good tune for a sketch.
No. An actual musical would never have a bass-baritone as a lead role. (this is just a joke, please don't list examples, I know about Sweeney Todd, not to mention a lot of golden age broadway shows. I'm not an idiot, but modern Broadway is a whole lotta tenors. Not all tenors, just a whole lot of them)
Cecily is hot AF. Kristen Stewart is hot AF in that look. "Embrace Me" is genius, and could have been a hit in the early 80's. I kind of wish that half-time show were a real production.
Now imagine a movie where she indeed walks up to her stainless steel refrigerator wearing nothing but that football jersey while "Embrace Me" is playing ...
Kate just staring up at Leslie in the family feud sketch while she tries to deliver the "i hope you burn in hell" line is so cute... her tiny face RIGHT still in frame lmao. also that broadway sketch is dope.
She did a great job. Her Totinos, interior house paint, and reverse-Mohawk were hilarious, too. I'd love to see her host again. And if she did every sketch in that dress, I wouldn't care about any continuity issues.
Fred always plays characters that one would find late at night on the public access channel. The way Kate is looking up at Leslie when she begins to break. Lol
I KNOW. BREAKING LIKE THAT SHOWS WHAT A HORRIBLE PLAYER SHE IS. SHE IS SO UNFUNNY AND SUCH A POOR EXCUSE FOR A COMEDIAN IT ALMOST MAKES ONE HAVE TO PUKE !!
Because all New Wave bands had guitars with tuning pegs switched to inside the body(so '80s). It was a pretty spot-on addition to the props for the skit, and a good observation by you!
You know, my favourite part of these compilations they put out is how they all start with a segment from the middle of one of the later sketches that we then have to watch again later while not laughing because we already saw that part.
HR Risin, I love him, but a “great actor” he is not. He just plays slightly different versions of the same character 75% of the time, and the other 25% he is just being himself. All good! But not great acting.
@@phil-ys3cf not at all. They're both adults and I didn't say anything negative about either of them, nor did I use vulgar or graphic language. Maybe turn down your sensitivity a couple notches.
I’m not even kidding when I say that Embrace Me goes hard
Agreeed
Yeah, i want to download that song!!

As someone who loves musical theatre and the NFL almost equally (with almost no friends that share both those interests) the Super Bowl Broadway sketch spoke to my soul in ways I cannot describe.
Lol me too
That was one of SNL's most elaborate and creative sketches. It was so spot on it was almost not a spoof.
If it touched you that deeply you might think about seeking some therapy. Just worried about you friend.😆😇
I don't understand football, and I've never seen a Broadway play, but this sketch did it for me 😂😂😂
Add another friend to that list!
Low key, that song Embrace Me is a jam
Under the neon lights
I think you mean high key
Awesome!!
I put this on in the background and genuinely forgot I was listening to an SNL sketch for a minute.
"The players are in their costumes..."
lol
This whole broadway sketch is genius actually.
I was like...huh, not bad
I think people would actually enjoy this being made into a real Broadway production.
Man that was hilarious whomp whomp
One year they actually did something like this for the super bowl. It was hilarious.
Really? You thought that skit was "genius" ? Low bar, I guess. I failed miserably trying to find anything funny in this artless attempt at humor. Low bar, I guess.
Dana Carvey and Fred Armisen together is such a treat
and Hadler in the back!
I love the fact that Steve Harvey hates Kenan Thompson's impression of him. Proof that it's on the money.
😂😂
Keenan has been at snl forever. One of the funniest guys you'll ever meet Does he do stand up? His timing is spot on
Keenan can't do impressions. He is just the same as he was on that annoying show Keenan and Kel.
@@cirilloz to each their own I guess, I'd understand why some people wouldn't like it.
@@cirilloz right, he cant do impressions. he only dresses, looks, behaves and talks like the person he is immitating.
There’s no Seattle. There is no Denver. There is just love.
Tony material
I love it. I would watch way more football with my dad if it was like this!
I honestly get chills every time
2:05 I have a friend who's both a musical theatre and football nerd amd this is a pretty accurate representation of our conversations
It’s like when i had any conversation whatsoever with my brother when I was a teenager.
I need “Embrace Me” as a ringtone, STAT!
Next time for my friend's party, I should take "the beautiful spirit of togetherness that makes us all part of the tapestry of humanity". Beautiful, I died laughing on the floor. Love them!
40 years ago Embrace Me would have been a hit.
Definitely
Sounds like a cross between Joy Division and early Depeche Mode. Well Done. Was that Bo Burnham on drums?
It is right now.
Absolutely.
So very Euro-wave
I like it now!! Embrace me 🎶
Jimmy Johnson just getting up and walking off set was perfect.
@ 3:49 I left right after him.
How have I never seen that broadway skit before?!? That was the most ridiculous thing ever.
Womp Womp!
In the best way possible
It’s ok. It went over so well there doing it this year.
Those football chicks tho
Yeah, that's the idea...that's why it's funny.
All football fans are also fans of English 80's New Romantic Electro Pop. It's just a fact.
A football fact...
@@tiberiussempronious6252 yes!
Can confirm 👍
Why is “embrace me” such a banger?
Antonio Picon nien tu cuka bylat
Is it The Cure ? While tune is very Depeche-y, the band behavior reminds me of The Cure. Just not entirely sure.
Definitely a pretty good tune for a sketch.
Fred Armisen probably wrote it. He's a musician
That Casey Afleck Impression was on point!
Right!!!!
Am I weird for actually loving "Embrace Me"?
no
I know they were making fun but I honestly really enjoyed it😂
It's a bop for sure.
not at all
Heck no, it's a good song! I love that Gary Numan vibe!
I would 100% watch that Halftime show tho. Seriously.
A lot more talent and heart than plenty of half time shows.
They don’t seem to really grasp the sport but I like their enthusiasm
Sure. SNL would be a hell of a lot better at halftime than the garbage they usually have at halftime.
SNL should just get the spot, fuck JLO
No slam against JLO and Shakira, but this would be 150% better
I can confirm that that is in fact how Broadway works.
I wouldn’t trust a mechanic to know how my car works if he couldn’t spell it.
@@MrTravisHD I wouldn't give a shit if my mechanic could spell if he could fix my car.
What was the biggest production you were in?
“OH MY!”
No. An actual musical would never have a bass-baritone as a lead role.

Embrace me! Bill in the back is cracking me up
koala201211 He’s just jammin’ in his own world back there 😂
Is that Bill Hader in the back for "Embrace Me" ?
Yes
Yup
Cecily is hot AF.
Kristen Stewart is hot AF in that look.
"Embrace Me" is genius, and could have been a hit in the early 80's.
I kind of wish that half-time show were a real production.
Kristen cleans up surprisingly well ! She was even cuter than Cecily, which just does not compute...
Super hot.
I never had a thing for Kristen till seeing this.
Now imagine a movie where she indeed walks up to her stainless steel refrigerator wearing nothing but that football jersey while "Embrace Me" is playing ...
That half time show is better than all the real ones so far.
Only MJ’s was better but yeah
@@thomasd8218 for sure
You gotta watch Prince's halftime show bruh
@@JoeMiyagi both iconic and will be remembered forever
@@JoeMiyagi I don't condone the use of "bruh", but you are correct...it was the best. "Purple Rain" in the God damn rain was magical.
You lost because you lacked "womp womp"
Yea that’s what Denver was missing
Kate just staring up at Leslie in the family feud sketch while she tries to deliver the "i hope you burn in hell" line is so cute... her tiny face RIGHT still in frame lmao. also that broadway sketch is dope.
That's probably why Leslie broke.
Kate definitely was pushing for her to break lol, it was perfect. Leslie broke all the time but Kate pushed that one hard!
"You're tearing me apart!" was low key hilarious... and that random cat in the end.
Does anyone else love the 80s synth song "Embrace Me" like I do? This song needs to be real....
Okay, Cecily needs to bring this character back. I'm almost in tears
Ozamataz Buckshank she’s hot. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Cecily is so hot. Such a good singer. So funny. Smart. Rich. No man deserves her.
Its so accurate i love it
YOU THOUGHT THIS WAS FUNNY? THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS IT WAS NOT FUNNY AT ALL. IN FACT IT STUNK !!
@@roberttuss5349 Shhhh, Robert. Shhhhh.
The Broadway sketch had John Mulaney written ALL over it.
When misto from cats showed up at the end of the broadway half time show, I DIED😁
"Misto?" Oh, boy.
Totally did!
You just nickname him? 😂
Bill Hader didn’t say anything and was still the best thing about “Embrace Me”.
"Embrace me" is my new jam.
I wish there was a version with no talking I would play it in my car lol
Bill hader casually in the background of the embrace me skit is fantastic 😂
that embrace me song is a straight up banger lol
The first sketch is my favorite. The Broadway musical at the super bowl. I honestly loved it
When Mr. Mistoffelees jumped on stage I lost it
“Wait a minute - is this the baby from American Sniper”. Rofl 🤣
Cecily is PERFECT 🙂
The Broadway skit is my hands down favorite. I get chills every time I hear the last song.
This Broadway show is killing me lmao
So good!🤤
For sho Ozamataz.
You can see Kirsten break a little bit when Bobby laughs the 2nd time lol I love when the cast breaks character
The broadway show Super Bowl reaction was priceless
I want to be embraced 😭😭😭😭that was hilarious Dana Carey is golden 4 life Good job SNL
I will never get over how Keenan says “celerity famly fyood”
That first sketch was actually very enjoyable! Better than the Maroon 5 and Last Justin Timberlake halftime show...all those strained notes 😏
Agreed!!
I'd rather watch The Fingerlings than the last 10 halftime performances.
I can't believe "I'm Dmitri and I want to dance at your next party" isn't in here
Kristin Stewart legs 🔥🔥🔥
Ben Gotti she looks good with long hair and when she acts normal.
I was surprised they look great.
They confirmed my equipment still worked
@@earlofwickshire5416 Jesus Christ. I just had the golf clap version of a laugh when I read this. Just kept building. ha ha
I’d 150% go gay for her while she’s dressed like that!
Oh, jeez. I forgot about the time Kristen Stewart killed it in that black dress in that one "Family Feud" sketch. Way to go, girl.
She did a great job. Her Totinos, interior house paint, and reverse-Mohawk were hilarious, too. I'd love to see her host again. And if she did every sketch in that dress, I wouldn't care about any continuity issues.
"Show me goulashes and capers" made me laugh
Fred always plays characters that one would find late at night on the public access channel.
The way Kate is looking up at Leslie when she begins to break. Lol
that broadway sketch is truly iconic
Leslie couldn't help laughing...
Barry Johnson never can
I KNOW. BREAKING LIKE THAT SHOWS WHAT A HORRIBLE PLAYER SHE IS. SHE IS SO UNFUNNY AND SUCH A POOR EXCUSE FOR A COMEDIAN IT ALMOST MAKES ONE HAVE TO PUKE !!
That New Wave song was actually good....
Heck Yeah! Is it on Spotify?😉
@@Kit.E.Katz45 I wish
@@marinoblocker Believe it or not, there is an Embrace Me by The Fingerlings on Spotify!😂😂 Unfortunately, it's not this magnificent version!😔
@@Kit.E.Katz45 LOL...I'm gonna have to check it out.
Kit E. Katz you are too funny. I just checked it out and it is a completely different song by a different band!! 🤣
Good lord. Those legs... taller than I am.
I love Kenan's "Celebr'day Fam'lay FEW" in every Family Feud sketch
Why is no one talking about Bill Hader playing the bass without the head?
Because all New Wave bands had guitars with tuning pegs switched to inside the body(so '80s). It was a pretty spot-on addition to the props for the skit, and a good observation by you!
I have a headless guitar and I didn't notice that
Why would anyone? They're pretty common.
Yeah! Very 80s 😁
Steinbergers were very popular in the '80s.
You know, my favourite part of these compilations they put out is how they all start with a segment from the middle of one of the later sketches that we then have to watch again later while not laughing because we already saw that part.
🎶 *Embrace mee, embrace meee, under the neon lights, embrace meee..* 🎶
12:48 🥴"OKAY...SHOW ME SOME NONSENSE"!!😂😂😂😂😂😂
3:15 - whatchu say about Sasha and Malia??? 😅🤣😂
The Green Bay skit with the singing sounds SOOO 80s and I love it!!
The "embrace me" sketch would have been so much better if all the average "bros" would have totally, and uncharacteristically gotten into it.
The Embrace Me sketch had to have been written by Fred Armisen 😂
It almost had a Portlandia feel
Fred Armisen and Dana Carvey would be a musical force!
"Embrace Me" is a great song.
just me or is Keenan Thompson is is a great actor
What up with that?
HR Risin, I love him, but a “great actor” he is not. He just plays slightly different versions of the same character 75% of the time, and the other 25% he is just being himself. All good! But not great acting.
When Moynahan as Bellichik gives up on laughing, I'm dead
The "Embrace Me" sketch is classic.
My son and I geek to that sh*t every time we seen it.
Ps Go Pack go!
I would 100% buy tickets to that Superbowl musical. Someone please make it happen.
I would not buy a ticket, but I would watch it during halftime free on television.
“EmbrAAaace me! Under the neon lights embrAAAace me!” 😜😂

The Broadway Superbowl was just a chance to show Michael Strahan enjoying Musical Theatre 😂
I will be so sad if they don't recreate the broadway sketch with JJ hosting this weekend.
Ugh. That halftime show gave me chills. I'm beyond reproach.
Can't believe I haven't seen the Green Bay sketch before! Thanks guys! 😂
He should be crowned the real Steve Harvey. Paula Deen uses 26 sticks of butter in every recipe...
This needs to be an actual halftime show 😂😂😂
Not gonna lie, Melissa villaseñor as lady Gaga is hot!
You know damn well Kenan could've played Michael Strahan but as soon as the writers mentioned show tunes he said "Sign me up!"
That was only a six layer dip. She forgot the pound of butter.
Right. Or gravy.
2:30 , Their reactions had me dying!
The Packers one with the band in the bar was not an accurate depiction of what would actually go down. That would have ended in more bloodshed. LMAO
"That one play, with the one guy, doing the one thing"😂
I lost it at Mr. Mistophelies popping up at the end
Kristen's Legs Tho
the broadway one was kinda good ngl - like I would actually wanna watch that show
9:09 Why did that laugh sound like Cat Valentine lol?
@16:44 Taran is really killin it. I FULLY Embrace that💃🏾
Trying to figure out why I have this full blast in my ear 2 in the morning. I’m accepting it. I’m embracing it.
Lmfao! That musical number. 😂😂😂
Embraaaaace meeee... Now it's in my head😝
Taran Killam was underrated. So committed and multi-
talented
can the "Embrace Me" song be real please? :)
Killing me lmao the cat at the end of the first skit
Kristen Stewart 🙂
😐
It was weird to see her without a shaved head and neck tattoos.
EMBRACE ME, IN THE NEON LIGHTS ENBRSCE ME IS A BOP
Yo Bill Hader be vibing in the back of “Embrace Me”
