maybe ever.

I freaking LOVE it. I have watched it over and over and over. He completely nailed the annoying ass, weird, One Man Show, bullshit theater acts. The awkward crowd interactions, the "kid voice praying to god", everything. John Leguizamo was the worst at this shit.

really? i thought it was super annoying & awful.

12/18/2011 10:35:42 PM

it was supposed to be... because those acts are so annoying. It wasnt so much funny as it was accurate

12/18/2011 10:36:22 PM

oh okay. i guess that makes more sense then.

12/18/2011 10:37:16 PM

SNL has always been funny

This one is from the same episode and it's way better.

12/18/2011 10:44:26 PM

yeah, its good... but you or I could have wrote that. The OP is some high end shit.

12/18/2011 10:45:48 PM

No, not really.

12/18/2011 10:50:29 PM

I thought the Tebow one was funnier.

12/18/2011 10:56:06 PM

Tebow jokes? Come on man!

they are everywhere

12/18/2011 10:56:29 PM

Not that funny and absolutely not the best ever

12/18/2011 11:24:28 PM

OP Not funny

Tebow Funny

/thd

12/18/2011 11:31:38 PM

I didn't laugh

12/18/2011 11:32:51 PM

got a bunch of fart joke fans ITT

Yep. I fast forwarded through the half jewish skit...and it might have been the only one i did that to during the whole episode. it was not funny. tebow was.

on a related note, i totally thought this was about the tebow skit, even though it wasn't THAT funny.

12/19/2011 12:20:59 AM

It don't mean a thing if it don't have that Penelope.

12/19/2011 12:31:52 AM

just another of many reasons why Fred Armisen is the best

12/19/2011 12:36:27 AM

thank you tgl3

only fucker with some taste. Armisen is amazing. His queen skit with Katy Perry a few weeks ago was awesome

this. that tebow shit is intellectually lazy.

12/19/2011 12:43:09 AM

^^ that was probably my favorite sketch of the season

So your reason for liking this skit is because you hate that type of performance. Well some of us don't get heated about some irrelevant bullshit.

If it's not funny and it's more accurate then that makes it exactly like what you hate. But you like it... Maybe you should take some time for inner reflection.

12/19/2011 12:47:20 AM

that is stupid. He nailed a topic or persona in a humorous way that someone could easily have over done to the point of being totally silly. It's perfection. Armisen is by far the best current cast member.

12/19/2011 12:53:03 AM

^^ the sketch is almost like anti-humor, which is awesome. i enjoyed it the first time, but i found it funnier after watching it again

12/19/2011 12:56:29 AM

The "getting a video to play" thing was choice

And the way they did exactly what all promotions do with their plug clips "Audiences can't get...Enough!" perfect


gg jaybee

gg, indeed

12/19/2011 12:57:48 AM

oh he's one of those people

saw a skit and it's suddenly the best skit in a looooong time...performed by the best current cast member, by far. i bet when he goes to the olive garden he takes a bite of their lasagna and declares it the best he's ever had.

12/19/2011 12:57:54 AM

Samberg is the Olive Garden of SNL, not Armisen

12/19/2011 12:59:58 AM

Yeah saying, "the best current cast member" is SO weird! I mean, how could I possibly rank 7 people. That's just too mind boggling to comprehend. It's like, who is the best current QB in Green Bay! No WAY that can be judged! Are you mad man!?

it's not gay

if it's in a three-way

12/19/2011 3:16:30 AM

12/19/2011 3:23:13 AM

also not gay underway

How is the Michael Buble Duets not embedded in here? That shit was fuckin hilarious!

12/19/2011 8:30:54 AM

I don't get it, but I couldn't understand how people didn't get the J'acuzzi skit with John Malkovich a few years ago, so I feel your pain Jaybee

[Edited on December 19, 2011 at 9:26 AM. Reason : I mean, I get it, but it's not very funny, but Fred Armisen is awesome]

12/19/2011 9:25:10 AM

I thought Tebow was way funnier

12/19/2011 9:39:16 AM

I don't think I've ever seen one of those One Man Shows, so most of that went past me... Tebow was pretty funny.

No way either of them was even close to the funniest SNL skits of all time

12/19/2011 9:59:51 AM

Armisen's Thom Yorke impression was hilarious

12/19/2011 10:30:28 AM

^^ like they always use someone in the crowd as a prop to talk to, and that person is almost always like "ummm, fuck this is so awkward, am I supposed to respond??" and they nailed that... Same thing with stupid gimmicks like pretending to be a janitor before the show, or the guy taking tickets, or the usher etc. and then they "reveal" themselves to start the show but everyone already knew it was him all along.

12/19/2011 12:55:10 PM

Have you never seen a parody of a one man show before? It's like shooting fish in a barrel, man.

12/19/2011 12:59:28 PM

I know, its almost Tebow joke level

12/19/2011 1:00:16 PM

pretty fucking lame. even the audience wasn't laughing.

12/19/2011 1:02:09 PM

It wasnt a har har har skit. It's to be appreciated.

You all need to start supporting local theater yo, good and bad.

12/19/2011 1:07:15 PM

as a supporter of local theater I don't think this sketch was as deep or nuanced as you're saying

it was funny but banging on one man shows is low hanging fruit

[Edited on December 19, 2011 at 1:12 PM. Reason : r]

12/19/2011 1:11:53 PM

I farted. Lol!

12/19/2011 1:13:27 PM

fart jokes are lazy

12/19/2011 1:18:19 PM

Wasn't joking. I just tooted

12/19/2011 1:20:51 PM

playing dumb is lazy

12/19/2011 1:25:36 PM

if he's playing dumb, he's been playing dumb for 7+ years.


but seriously people show some respect. this was the best SNL skit in a lonnnnnnng time performed by the best SNL cast member BY FAR.

12/19/2011 1:39:33 PM

oh look, another completely terrible Fred Armisen skit
