For this who didn’t know, Herb Welch is based on real life reporter Dick Oliver, and Jack is based on real life Jim Ryan. The two had an argument during a live broadcast where Dick was interviewing a tenant about a landlord-tenant dispute. Jim criticized Dick for his lackluster reporting, leading to an epic on-air dispute. ‘‘Twas gold.
“They burned my friend” and “Well they changed the 8am service to a Spanish Mass, so I’m not doing too well” are amazing lines that warmed my perpetually guilty Catholic soul.
@@PereMarquette1223 Just the way he insults him; lifeguard, tie rack, can of hairspray, mannequin. Herb makes him out to look like a robot and his old timey delivery is what kills.
@@PereMarquette1223Don't write my copy: Don't tell me what to do. Lifeguard: generally considered a temporary job for teenagers looking for easy money. As opposed to a lead anchor on a potentially statewide or even national news network.
meligoth it’s because she’s a professional actor. SNL used to have professionals too. Not all these “breaking character amateurs” like they have now on Liberal SJW SNL.
I love how he tried so hard to follow the mic, which at first, seemed like innocent, just Herb's arm getting tired...then turned into a Three Stooges homage
Tammy Forbes Yep! Hader, Murphy, Hartman, Radner, Murray, Carvey, Thompson, Fey, Belushi, Akyroyd, Armisen, Poehler, Ferrell, Wiig, Shannon, McKinnon... The list of GREATS is not that long.
Maybe he wrote it but Bill Hader makes old timey references all the time. It's why he did impressions of Alan Alda and Vincent Price on the show, that was his wheelhouse. He talks with Conan about how they both do this on Conan's podcast interview with Hader.
Allagí yes good point and it should be noted that Bill and John wrote together for this and Stefon and probably countless other sketches. Not to mention Documentary Now too! They’re just an awesome team.
This skit was comedy gold. Once you saw the first one, you knew the formula, but it didn't matter! I don't care how many times I see these, they make me laugh every time!
Of course, Hader is an absolute riot... But I feel like Sudeikis deserves more credit than he gets, his attempts to stay professional and keep Herb on track are almost as funny in my opinion.
He is and he changed his name to Chris Wallace and now works on FOX NEWS!! He's got a really cool uncover investigative show where he pretends to be a Republican working for a Conservative network but he's really a Democrat who moonlights as a fluffer at Adam Schiff's late night All Male sex parties.....HE'S A REALLY GOOD BOYYY!!
I would say the best since the original cast, and that includes the class with Will Ferrell - who on his own was hilarious, but the ensemble wasn't stand out comedy.
I do think there's much to be said about Beck Bennet. Anyone remember when he did the adverts with the wee laddies and lassies round about the table ? AT& Bloody T, I believe it was. Brilliant.
bill is honestly incredible. his characters are hilarious and he’s so good at them. he’s got this energy that makes him great at his work. he’s honestly such a talented actor. most of my favorite sketches from snl are with bill.
I don’t think I’ve seen these since they aired, and I forgot how much Andy Samberg yelling “You SUCK, Herb Welch!” out of a moving car REALLY made me laugh. 😂😂
WOW, this sketch is hysterical. This is probably the first SNL sketch in a while that's had me cracking up repeatedly. It's also ridic to see Adam Samberg and Jessie Eisenberg in the same sketch. Where's Michael Cera?
Jesse's name in the sketch is, Derrick Smalls. That's the name of the bass player Harry Shearer played in, This is Spinal Tap. Prolly, not a coincidence. Harry was once a snl cast member, briefly in the 80s.

Ya gotta give it to Herb, he always has a spare mic on hand. He really is a true professional.

And that's fuckin awesome
Dominik Tokar Tokarski it’s cause everyone loves him 😂
Really hoping it means he's coming back to host
“They burned my friend”. His timing. the line. I’m laughing about this 7 days later.

I think Kenan’s ability to not crack is seriously underrated. He stays in character without laughing more than almost anyone else on the show.
I miss Bill Hader on SNL so much. Him and Will Ferrell had the uncanny ability of making a sketch better just by being in it. It's so rare these days.
I feel like Beck Bennett is the one closest to that at the moment
So right. I personally think Kenan does that too.
Kate McKinnon also shines in every sketch she’s in
@@peaceleste Brilliant
Cecily Strong is underrated.
“Banzai, you remember me?!”
“They burned my friend.”

How Kristen didn't break when Bill was rubbing the mic against her is beyond my understanding.
She came so close to breaking character. Hader was cracking up lol
Poh, poh, poh, poh, poh.... pawwwh! lol
Emma Stone kept it together pretty good too.

"can of hairspray", "lifeguard", "suck an egg, you mannequin", "tie rack"
The 50s and 60s references like Lucille Ball and Harry Belafonte have Mulaney written all over them.
Maybe he wrote it but Bill Hader makes old timey references all the time. It's why he did impressions of Alan Alda and Vincent Price on the show, that was his wheelhouse. He talks with Conan about how they both do this on Conan's podcast interview with Hader.
