Maya Rudolph is so underrated. Even when her characters are zany and way-outta-left-field, she always imbues them with a believable humanity. Her timing is impeccable; and of course, that marvelous singing voice of hers. Give Maya Rudolph more work!

You guys. I can’t. This is seriously the funniest thing ever, from the writing to Maya’s delivery. The Leonard Nimoy song, “Kathryn Perry,” “gabagoo,” “TO WHAT END” .. I just can’t.
@@AuntieLux I disagree it is so good to start that you wish you had full versions of the songs. I mean don’t you wanna hear a full version of that’s what friends are for with New Jersey specific lyrics?
@@jayblechman2503 I'm not saying that Maya Rudolph is not a GREAT comedic actress - HER version of Dionne is LEGENDARY but it's no where near accurate and that's what makes it so great - it's so bad it circles back to brilliant. I would liken it to Leigh Francis's Craig David...
‘When you break up with Leonard Nimoy, you get a bus ticket to Sacramento, and a case of crabs for your memento! Why do I have a thing for spaceships?’ - Burt Bacharach
It's the tiny little things that Maya Rudolph does that make her so god damn funny. Like @0:30, when she says "Nimoy" and moves her mouth horizontally back and forth. She's just so talented at capturing those little intricacies in how people's faces move 🤗
@@dominicclark3774 Of courseee, I was more referencing the stuff Dionne would post on Twitter although I don’t think I was aware of her time on celebrity apprentice so maybe that’s why. Dionne’s voice on got to be real though will never fail to take me tf out.
@@reprolover11 LOL. ALWAYS NICE TO FIND A FAN!!! Dionne's voice takes me tf out EVERYTIME too lol its perfect. But nah, I wasnt suggesting anything other than a watch if you hadnt seenm it ever. I try to spread guaranteed laughter when i can lol
I know she's been around for awhile but this was the first time she ever made me laugh my guts out - this is GOLD! She was a pure comedic genius in this episode!
i love her soooo much. her whole career she’s challenged the boxes people say only black women can fit in. i know what it’s like to be the only person who believes in you. and now she’s a master of her craft! ❤

Drag race girls,this is how you exaggerate a real person for comedy. Maya looks absolutely nothing like Dionne Warwick and Dionne acts nothing like this,but you know this is supposed to be Dionne without even having them tell you it’s her and it’s absolutely hilarious.
The art of drag is a different medium. You didn't need to write this comment but you chose to anyway for what? Let other people have their fun, no need to be rude.
Maya Rudolph can take something as basic and boring as a telethon for a hurricane and made it hilarious. “Why would Xi Jinping want to flood my basement and rust my bowflex? To what end? TO WHAAT END?!” “We’re gonna sing a song that was interestingly enough written by no one. hiT iT!”
Jonah, thank you for this! I literally have to watch it at least once a day.....it never gets old. I am forever singing 'When you break up with Leonard Nimoy'! Maya is brilliant!
Maya Rudolph is a genius. She manages to make her characters grounded while still winking at the audience. The tiny little things she does fell simultaneously subtle and like big swings. I’ve watched this video many many times and find some delicious new micro-moment every time. So excited she’s hosting SNL again next week!
“We’re gonna sing an original song that, interestingly enough, was written by no one”

Casey Ellis After reading your comment, my dumb ass just now realized she was saying “hit it.” I fucking love this woman.
Something similar happen in 30 Rock. I forget if it was a song or show written by “no one”

It was from a song but I can remember the name of it Whitney Houston sung it

The best moment of the whole damn series for me....
I want to memorize this and say it the next time someone tells me climate change is a hoax.
I died at RECEIP-S 😂😂😂
OMG I'm dying right now
doesn't say perpetrated or receipts but pronounces xi jinping fine.

It's referencing her relationship with Leonard nimoy

this episode is, for me, the funniest. and Maya tops it all.
By far my favorite episode of the series!
Even though Chris Christie floated awAAAAYYYYYYY
I wish he would 😏
This is such a weird Dionne Warwick impression, but I kinda like it

I dunno why but HIT. IT. absolutely killed me. TOWHATEND!

The way she said it🤣🤣
This still remains one of the funniest performences Maya’s done. I’m weeping.
Same!!
A wet baby corn is a singer's best friend.
Eat your corns mommy

Why is the last song kinda a bop though?
For real tho
Got me singing this shit at work 🤣🤣🤣

Lea Michele omfg
Maya Rudolph is absolute TREASURE! I watched UKS thrice and wanted more of her
i rewatch the episodes she's in because they make me die; I love when she eats the baby corns on the cruise ship with Titus LMFAOO
No one gets it when I suddenly sing "PaRAMuSsss" out of nowhere.
I can't think of a better cameo by anyone in anything.
The placement of her mouth and what she is doing with her eyes is just incredible.
Rhyming surge with courage is sending me 🤣

This is one of the funniest things I’ve seen in my life. My god.
honestly i was having a pretty bad day and watching this over and over made me feel so much better!
Fun Fact, the guy playing the piano is Tina Fey's husband.
He must've been the one who wrote the songs bcause i heard he wrote songs for 30 rock

I just watched this 30 times
I’m not kidding
I've been watching it almost daily as an act of self care. Hit it!
YES. I'm watching this AGAIN.
Every time I’m on the NJ turnpike or in Penn Station and see the NJ transit signs-I always read Paramus in Maya/Dionne’s voice aka Pah-Raym-us!
