I can’t believe Aubrey Plaza went from being Aubrey Plaza who hasn’t hosted SNL, to Aubrey Plaza who has hosted SNL in just 1 hour! Insane progress from such humble beginnings (Edit: There is no edit, just wanted to be part of the "my comment blew up so i need to suck more clout out by putting 'edit' in the comment and thank everybody" gang)
More like "Aubrey Plaza who auditioned for SNL and got rejected" to "Aubrey Plaza who has hosted SNL and, just like Jim Carrey and Donald Glover, proved that she would have been great on the show, even if she would have been one of those SNL cast members who lasted a season and maybe had 3 or 4 good sketches, but was severely underused, like Luke Null, Noel Wells, John Milhiser, Terry Sweeney, Danitra Vance, Aristotle Athari, Tim Robinson, and probably the most famous of all of the SNL one-season wonders, Martin Short."
I love how she's a little bit nervous and there's several awkward silences where the audience isn't sure if the joke landed. It LANDED lol just adds to her legendary weirdness 💯
I’m pretty sure I heard Aubrey was invited to audition for SNL way back before Parks & Rec and was rejected. Must be awesome to go from being a page to a rejected SNL audition to a breakout sitcom star to a beloved comic actress to a beloved indie movie and prestige TV actress to SNL host.
There have been monologues that were like that, recently. Sometimes many of which weren’t properly organized, didn't have a lot of funny jokes or remarks, or some which were cool, but often unique.
People seem to forget that despite the quirkiness of her personality, Aubrey Plaza is a really smart, very attractive, competent, educated woman, more than able to host SNL.
@@kylef2937 You realize that's her brand of humor, right? If you think she was actually showing up an hour late hungover I highly doubt she would have made it, much less have Amy Pohler supporting her. You can't fake work ethic, but you can joke about it
@@ChiliCheeseD0g Yep. To paraphrase James Brown, "Aubrey better get a brand new bag" or she will end up being stereotyped and end up like Shelley Long.
The way she smiled when the camera cut back after showing her grandma - Aubrey you can’t pretend you don’t have a beautiful heart my G ❤ She’s one of the top 5 celebrity weirds of all time. Queen 🎉
@@aaronsinger Since you’re on the topic of correcting people, have some self worth and capitalize your own name. Also, punctuation marks make you look like you’re not an uneducated twit. *smooches*
Because she's interesting and isn't afraid to be a little weird-- a refreshing deviation from the norm. Even if it's "Hollywood edgy," it's still great
*"That was Sir Paul McCartney and that's how you do it."* Already Aubrey has me in tears lol Now I want to know more about her years as a page & set designer at 30 Rock. Wow she really slayed the dragon! Pretty flawless!
What a great accomplishment to go from an intern on SNL to hosting it. I want to host Weekend Update, but doubt that will happen… so I’ll continue my weekly Making Fun of the News on TH-cam. 🤷♂️
I had to rewatch this episode cause it was sooo well done and went by sooo fast! Sooo proud of Aubrey’s success and so happy everyone sees the awkward greatness!
This was sooo good. Playing up her strengths. Thank you for not making her just stand there. We were all rooting for you Aubrey. I could see little pieces of her and the things she likes in all of the sketches.
She's so fascinating to me. She has this alluring shy awkwardness and yet completely fearless and confident . And when she says "bow to your queen" ,that twitch of her eybrow followed by lip swirl. omg
I adore her ! She is talented , hilariously funny and incredible beautiful .So Fantastic to see her hosting SNL ! What a star .Imagine her full circle from working there to hosting ! What dreams are made of.. Go get em Aubrey! 💕
@coogan8825 He's "from" Delaware, he was just born in PA. @halomaster9640 is very clearly 13 years old and his dad told him to be uspet they didn't invite Trump on :/
In case you were serious, she got her role after a casting director set up a meeting with Aubrey and Mike Schur. He was so intrigued by her personality that he wrote the character for her.
This episode and monologue was perfection and a great way to kick off your new season loved Aubrey’s work from parks and recreation and all her work since she’s so funny and cute . @SaturdayNightLive 😊
Happy to see SNL taking chances and embracing unusual ideas throughout the episode. Great to see the guests and cast stretching out beyond more typical content.
I remember back in the day seeing Aubrey (I think her 1st film) in a quirky little indie film - Safety Not Guaranteed. Worth a watch if you're a Plaza fan.
Well in my 60s now. It is always good to see the making of a Superstar . The way she did that retro hard boiled detective parody . Aubrey definitely has the gift .
Amy Poehler showing up for Aubrey’s first time hosting SNL is such a Leslie Knope move and I love it.

Do you think it was a surprise? I’d like to think it was a surprise even tho a know better. Please everyone tell me it was a surprise.
I hate you for spoiling this
@@pembrokelove
Uh, no, it was obviously...
......
I can't do it.
Yes, it was a surprise!
Who?
The fact that Keenan has been on so long he’s able to tell the host “that’s because I ordered it in 2004” is absolutely mind-boggling.
Right?? What a hero
Yea, he's been on since '03 & the longest tenured cast member in SNL history according to Wiki. Amazing.
*Kenan. Glad you're all caught up now! 🐣
If u squint she looks like Scarlett Johansson..

@@canaisyoung3601 okay Terry Sweeney’s secret account.

Not to mention, that's an insanely complicated monologue. So many moving parts, but it worked.
It's okay, she gets nervous when she attempts one of her ritual serial killings, too! (Don't ask me how I escaped her clutches!)
She kills me. I love deadpan and using sarcasm! It goes over some heads but to those who grasp it love it!
Simp
One take! And yeah, I found the slight nervous tremble in her voice totally endearing.
I like how when she's nervous she sounds like a 1940s Hollywood starlet.
She looks like one too
She does she is Stunning and Radiant Personified 😊😊😊
That's her Janet Snakehole character!
That's sweet to give a bunch of the other pages some screen time, and that was a pretty awesome walking monologue.
The ending was the best. The guys from set and her admission that this was a dream from the beginning. So so cool to see that happen.
20 years from now, one of those 2 will host an SNL episode and they will use this short clip for their monologue!
Agreed

The long game
Right!? Guess she showed them
Perfect monologue for her. Kinda weird, kinda quirky, a lot of fun.
There have been monologues that were like that, recently. Sometimes many of which weren’t properly organized, didn't have a lot of funny jokes or remarks, or some which were cool, but often unique.
I feel like this is the most unnatural role for her though.
She is smokin hot
kinda sucked
People seem to forget that despite the quirkiness of her personality, Aubrey Plaza is a really smart, very attractive, competent, educated woman, more than able to host SNL.
I was so heart warmed by Amy Phoeler showing up ❤
When they popped up as their Parks and Rec characters, I damn near started crying. It made so many of us P and R fans so filled with joy.
?????????????
Just so happy for her, what a full circle moment
HI HOW ARE YOU?👋I JUST FARTED🤣🤣🤣
literally. I love the way they ended up back on the stage like that.
🐥🐥🐥
Just so happy for her
Good

What a great story of her hard work and talent paying off and love Amy Pohler showing up to support her!

Aubrey is extremely talented and I love watching her !!
One of my favorite monologues, Aubrey natural has a chill, cool, funny vibe so this just seemed natural for her.
I adore her. Emily the criminal really showed off her acting chops. Such a talent.
Yes she was amazing in that film!
I'll have to check that out! Thanks! I love that girl!! ❤️❤️❤️
Emily the Criminal blew me away! I loved it, that and Black Bear really show her range! GO AUBREY!
I’ve only seen her in Safety Not Guaranteed, but one of my favorite actresses just from that.
Her in Black Bear was Oscar worthy acting
I am here for Aubrey Plaza's continued success. She is SO talented!!! Congrats.
She reminds me of Lady Gaga…in fact, I thought it was Gaga in the promo for this week’s show
It doesn't matter what she does, all I hear is sarcastic April Ludgate.

Get a life!
That's the jab
Ngl my eyes got a little misty!!!!
You know Aubrey got nervous but in a good way.
Aubrey is such a queen 👑 I don't even know her personally but I'm proud of her, and I've grown up watching her, feeling represented lol
Am I the only one in tears right now?! Additionally to being hilarious, this was so moving!
The SNL team uploading skits faster than CNN uploads news clips is damn impressive.

and you would be correct!!
5:51 where she got choked up for a split second hit me really hard. So happy for her and this full circle moment!
Every time I can't put my finger on why I find her strangely fascinating and entertaining no matter what she's actually doing.
Because she's interesting and isn't afraid to be a little weird-- a refreshing deviation from the norm. Even if it's "Hollywood edgy," it's still great
This was such a creative, personal monologue! So happy for her 🎉
My self esteem just went up automatically omg Aubrey is a queen✨💖
She can bring a smile to the most depressed person.
Why people idolize celebrities?
She needs to stick with the blonde hair. She looks really good as a blonde.
@NostradamusJr. 100% agree
*"That was Sir Paul McCartney and that's how you do it."* Already Aubrey has me in tears lol
Now I want to know more about her years as a page & set designer at 30 Rock.
Wow she really slayed the dragon! Pretty flawless!
This was such a rare, good episode. Clearly Aubrey had a hand in the sketch selection, and her execution... Chef's kiss!
Aubrey KILLED it! She’s a future five timers club member, for sure.
She absolutely slays in that dress! 😻
What an icon. Aubrey makes sarcasm endearing.

It's easy when you sell your soul like she did.

@@emmanuellandaverde7601 she's in Hollywood. She literally works with pedos.
It’s sweet how nervous she is.
i got that energy too
I thought the same thing.
This is the best monologue I've seen in a really long time. YOU CRUSHED IT, AUBREY!!! (And I love you, Amy Poehler!!!)
I've always enjoyed her weird, quirk personality and characters.
What a perfect first open for her! 💕
This is the closest we'll get to an actual Wednesday in real life.
Jenna Ortega is Wednesday is real life tho
And Aubrey Plaza is over 4 feet tall, unlike Jenna Ortega.
@@michaeljordan6008😅 THIS IS A WILD RESPONSE, LIKE
Jenna Ortega is the perfect person for Wednesday. Aubrey is perfect for Thursday, she's taller than 4'
I think Aubrey will also steal the Agatha series coming later this year.
“We always believed in you, Avery” lol 😂
I had to rewatch this episode cause it was sooo well done and went by sooo fast! Sooo proud of Aubrey’s success and so happy everyone sees the awkward greatness!
She's so beautiful and her sense of humor it's amazing
Wonderful walking monologue. I've also never seen her give a smile as sincere and sweet as when they showed her grandma here. 🙂
That was one of the best monologues EVER! I didn't expect that from Aubrey ... she fit in perfectly. :)

4:07. Wow, I know that Kenan has been on S.N.L. longer then anyone else, but I only now realized that he's been on it for 20 years.
Aubrey was awesome! The best yet! And talk about those Bette Davis eyes. Love this girl’s comedy.
She's so fascinating to me. She has this alluring shy awkwardness and yet completely fearless and confident . And when she says "bow to your queen" ,that twitch of her eybrow followed by lip swirl. omg
So incredibly proud of her!
Her and Chris really took off after Parks. Comedic actors with range are special.
Pratt took off a bit more - I mean he IS Starlord....lol
Aubrey Plaza is everything! She was one spectacular host!
Yeah you are, April Ludgate. Or whatever her name woulda been 🤣
I adore her ! She is talented , hilariously funny and incredible beautiful .So Fantastic to see her hosting SNL ! What a star .Imagine her full circle from working there to hosting ! What dreams are made of.. Go get em Aubrey! 💕
Oh this made me cry. So happy for her. She deserves this!
I adore her so much and she deserves all the attention and love she’s been getting. This was a great monologue

So Amy met Aubrey at SNL. She left and made her own show and wrote a part for Aubrey. How cool!
In case you were serious, she got her role after a casting director set up a meeting with Aubrey and Mike Schur. He was so intrigued by her personality that he wrote the character for her.
This is the coolest monologue to exist on SNL
Gorgeous woman. Gorgeous dress. Great atmosphere and monologue.

He’s been on the show so long, when he started it was called The Sabbath Night Live. 🥴
How could you not love her!? She is so incredible!! ❤
Flawless and funny as hell, doesn’t get much better than that monologue
That was so cute and unexpectedly wholesome ❤
Aubrey is a great comedian and actress. We love her.
Literally just finished my 4th rewatch of Parks and Rec yesterday afternoon. This was perfectly timed.
When Keenan said he ordered a "flat white" I was honestly expecting Aubrey to go "and here I am!"
Same!!😂
@@EmilyNGA Yes, that would have been funny. She did look great in that dress.

She is so incredibly talented.
Aubrey -- all Latinos are so proud of you!! Yeay, Puerto Rico!!
Also, amazing how dreams can come true! Your story is an inspiration! Crush it!
I didn't know her family was from Puerto Rico until Grandma popped up! 😁 🇵🇷
She's just really good at what she does, making it look so effortless
Most iconic opening I’ve ever seen? YEP! Congratulations Aubrey!!!
Aubrey is awesome and the entire show is top notch.
Awe it’s so cute that they included the actual pages
From page to host? Seems like a Plaza-ble career trajectory! 😁
Abd an actress inbetween
Get off TH-cam, dad! This is MY thing!
"They're some of the sickest perverts I've ever met...and I'm a freak." Only Aubrey! 🤣

FINALLY!!!!! I've been WAITING for Ms. Aubrey to host
Aubrey is the queen. Absolutely stunning and hilarious.
saw a clip of this on tik tok and now im yotubing everything Aubrey. She is great. A fresh of breath air with her humor.
She looks AMAZING as a blonde. So different. She's pretty either way but damn I didn't expect her to look so nice so differently too
A walking and talking monologue live and she nailed it!
She absolutely crushed it

I remember back in the day seeing Aubrey (I think her 1st film) in a quirky little indie film - Safety Not Guaranteed. Worth a watch if you're a Plaza fan.
I still remember her first appearance on Letterman. She looked so good
How amazing to showcase the pages and also the team she worked with when she was a page.
Great monologue. One of the best.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
That one video of her in the bathroom should have won an Oscar.
And she looked freaking adorable in that dress ❤
Well in my 60s now. It is always good to see the making of a Superstar . The way she did that retro hard boiled detective parody . Aubrey definitely has the gift .
