Yessssss, me too! I just choke laughed to this at 3 am, hoping I won't wake up my roommate through the wall! Sometimes, it just seems perfectly tailored to your very specific type of humor, doesn't it?
As is Andy Samberg as Mackenzies brother when this happens: Host aka Jason: “Okay Phillips, okay here we go, lets start with Mackenzie” M: “Can i get back to you in 30 YEARS ?!?!” J: “No Dear, we need an answer now” M: “Sports” Her Brother: “Mackenzie and her dad are always going to play sports… …. And I’m like, Can i come?…. ….And they’re like ‘NOOOOOO we like to do sports just the 2 OF US and also AT A HOTEL’!!” * DROP THE MF MIC *
I feel like a lot of people may have forgotten all the stories that came out about John Phillips just after his death. Truly disturbing and heartbreaking, since he was such a great songwriter and performer. And remembering McKenzie with her drug problems during the late 1970s / early 1980s... it all kind of fits into place.
@@prolongedfart When I watch the SNL skits that were uploaded in 2013, I notice that Jason was in just as many as the rest of the cast. Now, in real life, he may not be in as many big hit movies as Bill Hader or Kristen Wigg but I still think he's well appreciated by the people who know of him
Whoever wrote this skit is extremely clever. The premise, the set up and the execution is flawless. Weaving an actual game show with contrasting characters that deliver solid lines of goofy fun with a strain of dark uncomfortable undercurrents. Contrasting characters with contrasting humour.
100% agree. I also do not find it in bad taste (the skit; John Philips himself was in very bad taste). Dark humor such as this - when cleverly executed - breaks the ice and opens for a much needed conversation and in turn openness about former taboos. In addition to making me laugh so hard that my tea comes out body openings I did not even know I had.
@Silje Helén I think it's important in cases like this that the characters are also totally earnest and usually oblivious.(Tropic Thunder worked partially for this reason) Jason Sudeikis really nailed the whole "concerned with the game and making lame jokes and really clueless to what's happening" thing. The moment at the end is really vital to the joke working, with Samberg's character blatantly breaking the joke of the sketch without realizing it and the other characters reacting to that. It wouldn't work nearly as well or at all if any of the characters were "in on the joke," because then the joke BECOMES the disgusting abuse and not the juxtaposition of a creepy guy barely passing as human on a family show. As soon as the characters do collectively switch to being in on the joke, the sketch ends with one last callout of how gross this guy is, reiterating that what the real guy did was not funny at all
This might be one of the most fucked up skits SNL has ever done, and I’m absolutely here for it. They literally put this out right after she did the Oprah interview
This is up there (down there) with the Ronald McDonald with Piscopo, the Drew Barrymore drinking jokes, and maybe that Brittany Murphy stuff. No one ever calls them out on these though.
As someone who watched FF with Richard Dawson back in the day, Jason Sudeikis nailed his mannerisms and sounded like him. Wayne's answer of "pot holders" wasn't bad. I have some that are over 20 years old.
When it came to making the second part of 'It', one of the kids was asked who should play him as an adult and his immediate answer was Bill Hader. Smart kid.
The staging in this is immaculate, especially seeing how each family member is positioned amongst themselves. The Osmonds are in pairs back to back, and it makes them look like a well-coordinated family of wholesome entertainers. John Phillips' wife Genevieve and Mackenzie's husband Jeff are both facing slightly away from John and Mackenzie. Mackenzie's face is entirely away from her father despite the fact that she's holding his hands. It's an interesting use of foreshadowing in a short sketch. Excellent work SNL!
@@chadd990 Yes, we all watched the clip, but not everyone noticed what I pointed out. I'm expressing appreciation for those details, and there's nothing wrong with that
Oh damm In September 2009, eight years after Phillips's death, his eldest daughter Mackenzie claimed that she and her father had a 10-year incestuous relationship. Mackenzie wrote of the relationship, which she said began when she was 19 years old in 1979, in her memoir High on Arrival. She said that the relationship began after Phillips raped her while they were both under the influence of heavy narcotics on the eve of her first marriage.[2] On The Oprah Winfrey Show on September 23, 2009, Mackenzie Phillips said that her father injected her with cocaine and heroin. According to Phillips, the incestuous relationship ended when she became pregnant and did not know who had fathered the child; she said these doubts led her to have an abortion, which her father paid for. She stated, "I never let him touch me again."[1][19] Geneviève Waïte, John's wife at the time, denies the allegations, saying they were inconsistent with his character. Michelle Phillips, John's second wife, also stated that she had "every reason to believe [Mackenzie's account is] untrue."[20] Chynna Phillips, Michelle Phillips' daughter, stated that she believed Mackenzie's claims and that Mackenzie first told her about the relationship during a phone conversation in 1997, approximately 11 years after the supposed relationship had ended.[21] Bijou Phillips, Mackenzie's half-sister from her father's marriage to Geneviève Waïte, has stated that Mackenzie informed her of the relationship when Bijou was 13 years old, and the information had a devastating effect on Bijou's teenage years, stripping her of her innocence and leaving her "wary of [her] father."[22] She also stated, "I'm 29 now, I've talked to everyone who was around during that time, I've asked the hard questions. I do not believe my sister. Our father [was] many things. This is not one of them."[23] Jessica Woods, daughter of Denny Doherty, said that her father had told her that he knew "the awful truth"[24] and that he was "horrified at what John had done."[24]
Actually, I think Hader swatted Reynolds' hand away because he thought Reynolds was going to touch his daughter/girlfriend. He also boxes out MacKenzie's husband from touching her at the end.
No one’s talking about this line at 5:15 but she says “can I get back to you in 30 years” as a reference to when the statute of limitations will have passed and her true answers can be said out loud. Very dark sketch O.O
Or appear in a Family Guy episode...again. Ryan Reynolds was on this one episode of Family Guy where Peter thinks Ryan Reynolds is hitting on him. Forgot the season and episode, but I do know it's real.
so many hysterical moments…just the way they all look! 😂😂😂 I don’t know what scene I find funniest, Fred getting buzzed before he even gave an answer, andy sandberg’s hotel comment (and hair), or jason’s little quips under his breath about their responses.
Except there isn't a shred of evidence for it and she didn't start telling this story until after her father was dead and she was washed up and looking to get back in the spotlight.
This is so funny. Jason's mannerisms were spot on, for Richard Dawson. I can't believe they did the John Phillips and MacKenzie, bit. OMG! It was so uncomfortable, even for an SNL skit. Bill Hader looked exactly like John Phillips.
I think this sketch really hammers home the difference people have between what family means & how it can be sucha sore topic for some people when your entire family identify is built up around these major family secrets/trauma. It’s dark but an important point is being made.
I personally think dark humor is the best way to break the ice and put an uncomfortable topic on the agenda and bring former taboos out in the light without accepting or excusing them.
I love how Jason Sudeikis put no effort into Richard Dawson's accent. And Bill is quietly tremendous in this sketch, treading the lines between funny and horrifying beautifully.
Yikes...when you realized her dad raped her, the sketch got funnier to you? I think it was one of the most distasteful and tone deaf sketches I have ever seen.
@@elenaderoet4926 That was the only thing funny about this sketch. Marie Osmond's son committed suicide around 2010, hopefully it was after the sketch was recorded otherwise, that's pretty fu**ed.
@@Shan2TheBoner1987 It is horrible and alot of people only learned about it from this skit. Humor serves a purpose. It mocks the powerful and corrupt taking away their dignity.

Im sure OPs answer would be something along the lines off "Well of course you all love that cast, now that its years later" But the actual answer would just be that he generalised the majority's reaction either by basing it off his own perception of current cast-members or having seen other reviewers/commentors react disapprovingly to the newer cast (subjugating himself to peer-pressure). Sure, some people dont seem to like new cast members until they've done something worthwhile (which is what im assuming the OP is basing his analysis off of), but that doesnt make it true for all viewers. I could be wrong and im sure if OP saw this, he would say i was also wrong (since most peoples general reaction to assertiveness, and others accusations about themselves, regardless of factual validity, would be defensive), i truly believe some cast members start off beloved and recognised. Especially since Lorne Michaels and his trusted peers approve them. Sure, not every sketch is gold, but Lorne definitely seems to know how to pick 'em.
Sudeikis is a master at pacing and timing. Love it.
Yes i agree
great comedic timing, i like how he uses the awkward pauses to make it even funnier
Sudeikis is no stranger to the industry
That "Bad answer, kid!" Had the longest most perfect timing pause I have ever seen before it.
His Dawson is great

Who admits to secrets?
Bill Hader quietly saying "bad answer bad answer" after Kristen says "diaries" is my new favorite thing.
As is Andy Samberg as Mackenzies brother when this happens:
Host aka Jason: “Okay Phillips, okay here we go, lets start with Mackenzie”
M: “Can i get back to you in 30 YEARS ?!?!”
J: “No Dear, we need an answer now”
M: “Sports”
Her Brother: “Mackenzie and her dad are always going to play sports…

@@lookingforlove839 I know it should be hard for you to be portrayed on TV. But that's ok, don't get offended.
How? This was the best cast they ever had! I guess people don't like change
Im sure OPs answer would be something along the lines off "Well of course you all love that cast, now that its years later"
But the actual answer would just be that he generalised the majority's reaction either by basing it off his own perception of current cast-members or having seen other reviewers/commentors react disapprovingly to the newer cast (subjugating himself to peer-pressure).
Sure, some people dont seem to like new cast members until they've done something worthwhile (which is what im assuming the OP is basing his analysis off of), but that doesnt make it true for all viewers.
I could be wrong and im sure if OP saw this, he would say i was also wrong (since most peoples general reaction to assertiveness, and others accusations about themselves, regardless of factual validity, would be defensive), i truly believe some cast members start off beloved and recognised. Especially since Lorne Michaels and his trusted peers approve them.
Sure, not every sketch is gold, but Lorne definitely seems to know how to pick 'em.
