"Drunken Redneck Kangaroo" is the Saturday Night Live sketch I didn't know I needed. Also, Seth completely losing it after having to say "acquiesced" one too many times made me laugh harder than I have in a while.
“ACQUIESCE..everyone watching at home like wow a genius must of wrote this one” 😂😂😂 Seth has a very poignant point of view on topics that I enjoy so much in similar fashion to Jost’s work on SNL, but his style and delivery keeps it fresh & unique as it’s own entity separate from SNL. Him having his own show was a fantastic decision & he’s successfully carved out a admirable place as one of the major voices of reason on TV. We love to see them thriving. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
*must've writeen (contraction of "MUST haVE") Similarly, it's could've, should've, would've, may've, and might've. The 've sounds like "of" when spoken, so that's why you misunderstood it. *its own (possessive) it's = contraction of "it is" or "it has" All contractions have apostrophes. Possessive pronouns never do.
The way Seth said, "or whatever it was back then, I dunno, horseshoes" out of self preservation cause of jackals 🤣🤣🤣 This was seriously one of, if not THE, best installment of A Closer Look
@@lizardog Best late night show by far. Miles better than Fallon and his impression game, way out in front of Kimmel’s LCD middle school boy humor, and yes, smarter and more charismatic than Colbert. Fight me. (But seriously, I was a Colbert fan and respect him, but he hasn’t been that funny the last few years).
"God forbid we GIVE IN and find a synonym for acquiesce, oh no, Sal wouldn't CAVE!" I see what you did there! Such a smart joke. He found not just one synonym but two!
I love how the House Clerk announced fourteen times "A speaker has not been elected" objectively and without a hint of judgment, let alone disdain for those incompetent legislators.
The word " ACQUIESCE " has never ever been funny to me. Then came Seth! Because of him, I'll never be able to hold my uncontrollable laughter no matter what setting or scenario I hear the word " ACQUIESCE " in!💙😂
This has got to be the best Closer Look ever !!! ABSOLUTELY HILARRRRRRRRRRRR. I went back several times to laugh even harder at all of this, thank you for existing Seth
They are finally properly Synergizing. He turned a future anticipated correction someone might give about correcting "Doctor Who is called 'The Doctor'" into a proper Trump rant.
Me I thought he was going to punch Matt in the mouth for wasting time now what the hell but then they grab him out of nowhere and said okay it's okay we got to get this guy out of here Democrats is looking like damn they are not in control of themselves😂🤣
Imagine being mcarthy lol. After 15 votes, giving up 100% of the speakership power only to have the end result being you're the weakest speaker in U.S history and a complete LITERAL puppet to 5 extreme individuals. Imagine that, and THEN being "proud" of the result in a hilarious lack of ANY self awareness 🤣
Oh, but the news has shown us that most of them are very much self aware. They're well aware of what they're doing. They know exactly what they're doing. It's mostly premeditated. Maybe not Marjorie TG or Lauren B but certainly Kevin McCarthy and the republican leadership
@hitreset0291 what position? He has no position lol. He is speaker in name only and has zero speaker powers and zero authority. I mean, he even gave into the concession that if a single republican decides they don't want him as speaker he could be kicked out, that's how pathetic and desperate he is. also, he acts like record keeping and video footage isn't a thing, he acts like history won't make him the butt of every joke along with trumpty Dumpty
When Seth talks about a third kangaroo, "described as a drunken redneck", there is actually a species of kangaroo called the red-necked wallaby. My husband and I saw a lot of them years ago when we were in Australia. According to Wikipedia, during courtship "the male and female will fight briefly, standing upright like two males. After that they finally mate. A couple will stay together for one day before separating." Sounds pretty redneck to me.
If I was the lady reading out the votes, I would start putting an emphasis on a new word every time, just to spice things up. "A speaker HAS not been elected... A SPEAKER has not been elected... A speaker has not BEEN elected."
after you de-tooth Pelosi, facelift Waters, yank on Schumers hairline, place a Chinese butt-plug into Swallwell, add lids and a neck to Schiff and harpoon the Nad.. THen maybe the Gaeth thing could be introduced.
Well said, now get Democrats to understand it. At least the Republicans have some new blood, if they can work towards clearing swamp creatures like McCarthy and McConnell, that'll help, then it's waking up Democrats to do the same so the people MIGHT get heard...
I mean, you can count on the Democrats to argue among themselves as to whether they should do the right thing, and you can count on the Republicans to argue among themselves as to which of the worst possible things imaginable they should do first.
Sadly the people who vote these clowns in dont pay attention or care for the reality and prefer to believe the bs because it’s easier for them, thinking is hard for them, even though they lose in the process.

I have family that lives in PA. I remember the first time I heard them say "wooder" it was like my brain just stopped for a moment. I had no idea what they were saying, lol. And Kevin McCarthy did not get a true majority. He needed members to vote "Present" to get the threshold down. In politics that matters.

Right? These guys had been at this for awhile and they just then thought they had figured it out? You know he thought that was such a good line before he said it too. Only made even more hilarious because now McCarthy has been voted out and their party has been completely unable to come together to elect a new speaker for over 2 weeks.
Depressing shenanigans from the GOP aside... I love Seth's giggle when he flubs a word or a line and retakes it -- it's so much more personable and fun than when hosts or politicians just try to keep going as if nothing happened!
I'd like to point out that throwing props to your crewmates during the show is very endearing and adds a personal touch to the show, everyone late nite show should do that...
While I'm often left speechless at just how good A Closer Look is, this one was off the chart. You can feel the teamwork, the fun, and the talent of everyone involved. Thanks to all for making these hard political times downright hilarious.
Amazing how McCarthy can still walk after having his spine removed.
He never had one.
He had it reinserted through his rectum
It’s not because of his spine he has difficulty walking it’s getting phqued by 214/215/216/217
People 14 times that has him walk-in’ funny 😳
He had one?
Trump had them take classes

Lose vote for speaker of the house 14 times, Kevin McCarthy.
Almost got it. One more edit.
He's going to have one hell of a time...
Here's a fun fact Nancy Pelosi had 32 Democrats vote against her she just didn't need their votes
Can't get fooled again

"A speaker has not been elected."
Actually, I think that's still true.
An _effective_ speaker has _still_ not been elected.

Oh I dunno. Steven Colbert is pretty awesome too. John Oliver. But Seth is great too.
Anyone who can look at what happened last week in the House and still vote Republican is just hopeless.
Anyone who can look at the last decade and vote Republican is hopeless.
@@ebybeehoney aNYONE WHO can look at trickle down economics since the 80s, Reagan, Bush, Trump and still vote Republican is hopeless.
So.. roughly half the American population is hopeless.. not exactly breaking news..
yet 70 million plus absolutely will.
They gave us the 2008 mega recession and the dubious Iraqi war.Oh ,and the 2016 clown.
Best Closer look I've seen in a hot minute 🔥
Depressing shenanigans from the GOP aside... I love Seth's giggle when he flubs a word or a line and retakes it -- it's so much more personable and fun than when hosts or politicians just try to keep going as if nothing happened!
When in doubt always just make fun of yourself.
Happy Monday Everyone!!!!!!!!!! It's Time For A Closer Look!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
can i have some of what you're having? cause I ain't feelin it.
I'm gonna make "A Speaker has not been elected" my ringtone.
Can I copy this idea?! 🙂
7:46 Italian hands 😂😂 also Seth laughing at himself when he messes up reading the cue cards really cures my depression 😂
So happy late night shows are back for this hilarious nightmare.
I'd like to point out that throwing props to your crewmates during the show is very endearing and adds a personal touch to the show, everyone late nite show should do that...
Cheryl Johnson was great. One of the best A Closer Look segments in quite a while.
I laughed all the way through this one. Thank you Seth!
Best closer look in a while! Jokes all hit well!
Seth Trump ---- "a big guy..... tears in his eyes"...... always cracks me up!!!
While I'm often left speechless at just how good A Closer Look is, this one was off the chart. You can feel the teamwork, the fun, and the talent of everyone involved. Thanks to all for making these hard political times downright hilarious.
I just love how Cheyrll Johnson just says "a Speaker has not been elected" on repeat. 😆
I was just surprised that we couldn't see her aging before our eyes.
Someone needs to come up with a remix for that.
She went between pronouncing it with a long e sound and the short e sound.
