"for the first time since witnessing mother's gRRRRRRuesome death" idc what anyone says, every time bowen is part of a sketch i end up loving his parts
To be honest I wasn’t expecting much from this, but when she kept going with the Queen Latifah thing it cracked me up 😂 Ariana absolutely killed it, good on her 👏🏽🔥
And then he does that little noise after "chanteuse" and everyone is about to break. Dismukes, Redd, Fineman and Sherman tearyeyed. Bowen chuckles. Ariana guffaws. Kenan is the goat.
These lines are epic!!! "Doe, the last name of a body found in a river!" 🤣🤣🤣 I missed it the first time I watched it. This one is definitely worthy of multiple views.
I love when they do skits from my favorite musicals. This had to be difficult to rehearse. I have no idea who Ariana Debose is (hey lay off me man, I'm raising children and work full time) and even though her few flubs were super minor her recovery was so good. She's good. Going to Google her now.
The joke about the “lazy lyric” is a stab at Oscar Hammerstein III and even tho he’s been dead for decades, he felt that. That made me pause and pound the table.
+Caelos Deleon No such person as "Oscar Hammerstein III" - dead or alive. As for "The Sound of Music," exactly nobody thinks that show's lyrics are important. Unfortunately, the 1959 musical - and the 1965 movie musical based on the stage production - are responsible for Rodgers & Hammerstein's popular reputation as lightweights who together produced shlock when as a team until "The Sound of Music" (with Oscar Hammerstein II firmly leading the way) they had created serious, innovative work that revolutionized musical theater in a way that can't be fully understood by people who don't know musical theater history but who have seen the (ridiculous and highly flattering to the family it portrays) stage & movie versions of "The Sound of Music."
Three points. One: I’m glad other people are finally realizing how shafted “La” got in the original song. :p Two: “So-how children make our sneakers” is underrated. Three: I’m glad Andrew Dismukes is getting more screen time. :D
Well, for example, there was only one person to ever catch the General Sherman. Went by the name of Homer. Seven feet tall he was, with arms like tree trunks. His eyes were like steel, cold, hard. Had a shock of hair, red like the fires of Hell...
Some really funny lines, and really well delivered, including: “…See, between concerts and puppet shows and fleeing the nazis, I’m already stretched quite thin.”; and, “…and just like me, she just got kicked out of a nunnery for erratic behavior.” LOL 😄. And 2 really good Marias.
The sketch/parody I didn't know I needed! Everyone and every bit was stellar. Queen Latifah - yes! Please make this ongoing and have her make a cameo! Best lines: Redd's and Bowen's. McKinnon and DeBose were stellar
Hysterical! Ariana was amazing, Kate was spot-on as Maria, Kenan was hysterical, and the whole cast was fantastic. One of the best skits ever! We want more!!!
In college, I learned that song from a girl from Long Island. "Dough, the cash, I get from Dad" "Ray, a guy at ZBT" "Me, the one, I love the most" "Fa, a place across the sea" "Sew, a thing I never do" "La, a word I learned in France" "Tea, I drink with Sweet N Low" "And that brings us back to Dough"
This is one of my best SNL performances. It's brilliantly written and well executed with excellence. Taking a beloved movie and making it fresh requires a high level of talent 🙌🏾❤️🔥✨
Cecily Strong as Liesl and John Mulaney as Rolf parodied "Sixteen Going On Seventeen" from _The Sound of Music_ a year ago. Kate McKinnon play Maria. _SNL_ also parodied the movie a few years earlier with McKinnon also as Maria.
As someone who ❤❤❤ The Sound of Music, I smiled from the beginning "No, the hills really ARE alive" to the end "Curly Fries!" This was just brilliant!! 😁😁😁
Do- the last name of a body found in a river Re- Romano, everybody loves him Me- a kid who pees in the sink Fa- like the end of Queen Latifah So- how children make our sneakers La- the start of Queen Latifah Ti- like the middle of Queen Latifah And when Homer hits his head, he says Do-oh-oh-oh-do!
one of the writers definitely came up with that fast food song when they were drunk and asked to put it in a sketch every 5 min until finally they used it here
If Ariana was announced to play Maria in a new Broadway production of "The Sound of Music", that swing in at 0:38 would be all anyone needs to know it'll be a great show.
I can't stop rewatching this. Each time I catch something new. There's so much happening. And Arianna is Amazing! How is she so good!?! The Sound of Music has always been one of my favorite movies. This beats out Mulaneys 16 going on 17 SOM skit. Both are so entertaining.
Of course this beats John Mulaney's 16 going on 17 sketch. It helps that Ariana DeBose is a professional singer, dancer & Tony-nominated Broadway performer. Mulaney, by contrast, is tone-deaf. He can't sing, can't dance and has no sense of rhythm. Cecily Strong did all the work in their Sound of Music: Rolf and Liesl sketch. Despite having written the parody lyrics & accompanying sketch, Mulaney couldn't follow the song at all. Better not to compare anything Ariana DeBose does to Mulaney's attempts to perform musical theater; it's just not fair.
I thought Chloe character was going to sing about killing her mom and how it wasn't a accident the skit would have taken a dark turn in this wholesome musical lol
Chris Redd’s delivery of “that’s so lazy” is the best part of this whole skit 😄
Yes, it really is! The delivery and timing is perfect
I agree. I always thought the same thing.
This part made me LAUGH out LOUD
I was just about to post this same thing! ...he kills it!...he’s such a telented guy!...I love him on SNL! 😄💜❤
It’s an awesome line, anybody could have said it
The Queen Latifah lines were genius.
Especially after the fact when I really had time to concentrate on her name and how each one fits into it and then I really got the joke!
I feel like this whole sketch was written around that joke lol
Considering the original “la a note to follow so” lyric as the skit stated
It helps that Ariana DeBose has some pipes on her. Really hit the high note on that "Ti like the middle of Queen Latifah"
Truly
“Doe, the last name of a body found in the river” f..king hilarious. Lol
Jane or John Doe would be the full name for adults like that oh my gods-
"for the first time since witnessing mother's gRRRRRRuesome death" idc what anyone says, every time bowen is part of a sketch i end up loving his parts

To be honest I wasn’t expecting much from this, but when she kept going with the Queen Latifah thing it cracked me up 😂 Ariana absolutely killed it, good on her 👏🏽🔥
Cnn rogan
Crazy fries at arbys
Makes me wonder if we should have been saying Queen La-Ti-Fa's name on pitch all this time.
Absolutely! I was honestly about to turn it off for the night, but this got me!
The queen latifa joke is not on ariana, it’s on the writers…
Just when you think you're safe, here comes Kenan with songs about fries.
And then he does that little noise after "chanteuse" and everyone is about to break. Dismukes, Redd, Fineman and Sherman tearyeyed. Bowen chuckles. Ariana guffaws. Kenan is the goat.
His cholesterol level must be grand.
I mean, turning Edelweiss into Curly Fries....I love it! Especially every Tuesday at Arbys.
😂😂🤣 🎶Gravy fries, curly fries every Tuesday at Arrrrbys 🎶
So True! He is the man!
It's the best rendition of _Curlifreiß_ you'll hear all year.
Major bonus points for the ess-tzet.
😂
*die* Curlifreiß.
Körlifreise
Thanks -- I actually missed that bit of Wortspiel. I guess I was still recovering from the brilliant La-Ti-Fa schtick.
Andrew Dismukes saying *gasp* uh-Gre-ta spoke!" kills me 😂 Along with Chris Redd's "that's so lazy" and Bowen's line. Just too good!
Okay but Ariana absolutely killed it 👏👏
Yes!!!
These lines are epic!!! "Doe, the last name of a body found in a river!" 🤣🤣🤣 I missed it the first time I watched it. This one is definitely worthy of multiple views.
Maybe because I’m still a theatre kid but this sketch had me ROLLING, actually laughing out loud 😂 fun to see Kenan channeling his inner Moira too 🎵
Agree!!! Harvest I've laughed at an SNL skit in ages
I love when they do skits from my favorite musicals. This had to be difficult to rehearse. I have no idea who Ariana Debose is (hey lay off me man, I'm raising children and work full time) and even though her few flubs were super minor her recovery was so good. She's good. Going to Google her now.
@@soundpilatesandyoga8531 she’s a Broadway star and academy award nominated star of West Side Story!
The mixed up "European" accents are the best part.
The joke about the “lazy lyric” is a stab at Oscar Hammerstein III and even tho he’s been dead for decades, he felt that. That made me pause and pound the table.
I always thought it was a joke
Every since I was a child, lazy lyric is what I always thought about Hammerstein taking the low hanging fruit, La follows So. Hilarious!

"Yes! For the first time since witnessing Mother's grrrrrrrruesome death!"
At least now Gretel will be able to see the thestrals! (I'm quite proud of this one)
Three points. One: I’m glad other people are finally realizing how shafted “La” got in the original song. :p Two: “So-how children make our sneakers” is underrated. Three: I’m glad Andrew Dismukes is getting more screen time. :D
The Queen Latifah parts 😂😂😂 OMG that’s too funny and I also didn’t guess the 2nd and 3rd uses. Brilliant!!
Bowen made a whole meal out of “Gruuuuuuesome Death”…and Kenan made me want to get a value meal at Arby’s.
I love how exasperated Kate looks when Ariana sings her “Do-Re-Mi” song.😂
Also, why would the Vatican have a cross-stitch of Homer Simpson?🤔🤣
Why wouldn't they?!
There’s a fan theory that says Homer Simpson is god. I doubt snl would reference anything that obscure but who knows?
Well, for example, there was only one person to ever catch the General Sherman. Went by the name of Homer. Seven feet tall he was, with arms like tree trunks. His eyes were like steel, cold, hard. Had a shock of hair, red like the fires of Hell...
Makes as much sense as anything else -- including a multi-racial Austrian family in the 1930s who know about Queen Latifa and Arby's.
Doh!!!
Did anybody catch “So, an album by Peter Gabriel” “that’s a little obscure” 🤣🤣🤣
I’ll be honest, was NOT expecting the Arby’s endorsement 😂
I know! They always get murdered when they get mentioned. XD
To be fair, the best thing at arby's are their curly fries.
This will go down as a legendary skit. Oh my goodness the Queen Latifah jokes were too good, Ariana DeBose's whole performance was magnificent
LOL...Even as a kid I remember thinking "LA...the note that follows SOL" was a LAME lyric. Off day for Oscar Hammerstein, I guess.
@@donbrown1284 it's sew not 'sol'...
@@dannydorko7075 Don't you mean 'so'?
@@dannydorko7075 Sorry, it should actually be "So".
@@RaeneTheFaerie no I don't. Because the lyrics are sew...a needle pulling thread. La...a note to follow sew.
Kenan's delivery of and smile right after saying chanteuse were so perfect
made 4 people break with that one..
the pronunciation was horrible 😂
I wonder whether they purposely gave Kenan the French word for a _female_ singer rather than 'chanteur' for a male singer.
THE QUEEN LATIFAH LINES BRILLIANTLY HILARIOUS. Kate looks just like Dame Julie too!
This is third time McKinnon parodied Maria von Trapp on _SNL_ .
I had to do a double take ! Haha. So good !
Some really funny lines, and really well delivered, including: “…See, between concerts and puppet shows and fleeing the nazis, I’m already stretched quite thin.”; and, “…and just like me, she just got kicked out of a nunnery for erratic behavior.” LOL 😄. And 2 really good Marias.
How did it never occur to me that Queen Latifah's name resolves a leading tone with a backwards augmented 4th
Huh?
@@MrBadass773 : JaQuicker evidently knows more than a thing or two about musical composition.

Ariana is killing it!
This seems like a little skit but the talent that goes into this is unreal
I don't know why but whenever SNL makes a sketch about The Sound of Music, it ends up being the most memorable part of the episode.
This is the third time _SNL_ has parodied _TSOM_ .McKinnon was Maria in all of them.
@@RaymondHng Wasn't Ariana Grande Maria in one of them or am I remembering wrong?
@@CV-Moore That was a fourth _SNL_ parody of _TSOM_ , but McKinnon was one of the nuns while Grande played Maria as a postulant in the abbey.
Broadway singers can really sing. She is outstanding, great sketch.
In college, I learned that song from a girl from Long Island.
"Dough, the cash, I get from Dad"
"Ray, a guy at ZBT"
"Me, the one, I love the most"
"Fa, a place across the sea"
"Sew, a thing I never do"
"La, a word I learned in France"
"Tea, I drink with Sweet N Low"
"And that brings us back to Dough"
“Me - a kid who pees in the sink” had me DYING
🎵”Let’s start at the very start of the song. It’d be crazy to start in the middle.” 😆(and well-delivered).
And, “…and singing is exactly the same.” 😄
Chris Redd pulling off double duty pretty well. Kenan gets a lot of credit but Redd is great too.
The two of them together in Kenan's sitcom are just terrific.
@@ELWest1000
I love it
1:01 The way she crossed the room was ALL Broadway.
This is one of my best SNL performances. It's brilliantly written and well executed with excellence. Taking a beloved movie and making it fresh requires a high level of talent 🙌🏾❤️🔥✨
👏I second that! Ariana's voice gives me goosebumps. This was creative, on another level, entirely!
Cecily Strong as Liesl and John Mulaney as Rolf parodied "Sixteen Going On Seventeen" from _The Sound of Music_ a year ago. Kate McKinnon play Maria.
_SNL_ also parodied the movie a few years earlier with McKinnon also as Maria.
*The Queen Latifah lines sent me*
*"Damn that's so lazy" sealed the deal* 🤣
Her first version with Homer Simpson was the best song parody on SNL in long time
THEY WERE HAVING SO MUCH FUN WITH THIS
this skit just made me realize queen latitfah was actually a part of music note
There was a period when some composers used the syllables of someone's name or motto to choose the notes of a theme.
It’s the different accents for me 🥲😂😭😭😭
AND
Kenans song omg!!
How is Andrew so good at playing gross children
I watched the Winter Prom skit right before this where he gets swamp ass lol
"Singing in my Hiioousee"! 🤣 Kenan just one line and you split my sides, just not fair.
I'm so glad Ariana Debose is getting the respect she deserves
Finally, SNL fixed The Sound of Music. So much better this way.
So funny, good to see Kate back.
Meanwhile, Cecily Strong is busy with her one-woman off-Broadway run of _The Search for Signs of Intelligent Life in the Universe_ .
I love seeing them struggle so hard to not crack when Keenan comes on, they are fighting it. hahah
As someone who ❤❤❤ The Sound of Music, I smiled from the beginning "No, the hills really ARE alive" to the end "Curly Fries!" This was just brilliant!! 😁😁😁
everything kenan does is hilarious!
Never occurred to me that "Lahtifa" is also solfege, and also melodic! (I'm writing this as I sit on a "so-fa" drinking "ti")
This Entire Episode freaking Rules!!!
Kudos to all involved! Home Run!!!
This just proves Queen Latifah is iconic
LA-TI-FA!
I feel like we should sing her name now instead of just saying it.
Do- the last name of a body found in a river
Re- Romano, everybody loves him
Me- a kid who pees in the sink
Fa- like the end of Queen Latifah
So- how children make our sneakers
La- the start of Queen Latifah
Ti- like the middle of Queen Latifah
And when Homer hits his head, he says Do-oh-oh-oh-do!
keenans entrances😂🤣🤣🤣😂 they never miss
When SNL turns into Broadway for an episode and immediately gets 200% better
Yep
Ariana DeBose is amazing 😂😂😂
And this was one HELL of an Arbys commercial.
musical sketches are the best sketches
love when this show is used for paradies!!! LOve this!!!!
~ I love Ariana Debose, in all of her brilliance, and I cannot deny it~~
The vocals on “the middle of queen Latifa” were so good
It's not lost on me that the two SNL episodes that were hosted by someone named Ariana both featured a sound of music parody
I'd missed the other one -- thanks for letting me know about it, that was fun.
The Queen Latifah thing was hilarious!
I love Peter Gabriel's "So".
Curly Fries.....#1 song in America!!! Hell yeah!
"Between concerts, and puppet shows, and fleeing the Nazis, I'm already stretched quite thin!!" Comedy gold!!
one of the writers definitely came up with that fast food song when they were drunk and asked to put it in a sketch every 5 min until finally they used it here
If Ariana was announced to play Maria in a new Broadway production of "The Sound of Music", that swing in at 0:38 would be all anyone needs to know it'll be a great show.
This was hilarious! I thought the audience would laugh more.
It was too funny to laugh, they might have missed something.
They probably didn’t catch the jokes in each line, or even know The Sound of Music lol
Just be thankful there *was* an audience.
I always _did_ think LA being just a note following SO was damned lazy!
😂😂😂
That's some awesome talent. Imagine being able to pick up a parody song in like 8 hours and perform it on live TV.
I hope Chris Redd's "Damn, that's so lazy" becomes a meme template.
The influence of the Lobster Diner sketch is absolutely palpable here
I can't stop rewatching this. Each time I catch something new. There's so much happening. And Arianna is Amazing! How is she so good!?! The Sound of Music has always been one of my favorite movies. This beats out Mulaneys 16 going on 17 SOM skit. Both are so entertaining.

I really enjoyed watching and hearing her do a perfect job for this skit.
Agreed. The Vactican word flub was all, but easily forgiven.
this made my week!!! Ariana DeBose is amazing
“Yes, for the first time since mother’s gruesome death” 😭😂
“la, what people call los angeles”
“no one calls it that”
💀💀
"Sew: how children make us sneakers" 🤣🤣🤣 It's funny cuz it's tragically true.
There were so many hilarious references in the “Doe-a dear” song but “curly fries / Edelweiss” was the best! 😂😂😂 Adriana DeBose is amazing!!! 🥰
I love them all so much. Such an amazing sketch!
This episode was largely on point, most of their skits clicked. Did Arianna bring up everyone’s game?
I think she did!
I feel like Keenan was just looking for an excuse to call himself a chanteuse
The only thing better than this skit might be a video of Dame Julie Andrews spraying the screen with her morning tea laughing whilst watching this.
I love how the videos start out normal and slowly descend into madness
I thought Chloe character was going to sing about killing her mom and how it wasn't a accident the skit would have taken a dark turn in this wholesome musical lol
oh I love Ariana's voice and acting skills! This is my new favorite skit!
"I instantly made all of their children perfect."
Must've been watching the Carrie Underwood Sound of Music Live version.
This has oddly been a go-to for stress relief this week lmao
In love with Ariana. what a gift.
I've never heard of Ariana DeBose. Now I'm a fan.
See West Side Story...she's amazing!
So funny! I lost it with the “Curly Fries” 😂
Best version of this ever.
When you have just realized "Latifah" is actually solfège 🤣🤣
🎶 The hills are aliiiiiive, and they’re going to eattt youuuu.” 🎶 😅
“Doe, the last name, of a body found in the river…”
“Ray, Romano, everybody loves him…”
DeBose: “Actually a female deer is not a doe, it’s called a lady deer.”
NASA: **furiously checks data** “Dear God! She’s right!”
I love how they were like "Just do the skit the theatre kids want"
My favorite from the night! Lost it at fa like fart without the t.
Kate is 🔥🔥 as Maria!!
This is one of the best SNL performances that I've ever heard. I really loved it. 👏 👏👏👏👏
