I just spent the day with 99 year old Aunt and all I could think of was this skit. She was all of them today. Cold/Hot where are her glasses, telling a long story that made not sense. I love this skit.🤣
I adore my 89 year old MIL, but she was bewailing the loss of JCPenney in her hometown, Indianapolis. I tried to tell her they still had some Indianapolis stores, not too far from her. I called the number and let her hear the store hours (They weren't open yet.). My husband said "I'll take you past there when I drive you home." She just said "I don't know about that" and my husband and I just about wet ourselves laughing.
Only 3 payments of $9.99? “Darnell! Go up to my bedroom and get those old coins out of my sock drawer so I can mail them in and get me one of them Alicias!”
I have to wonder how many complaints were registered at Amazon because the item isn't on the market. I can see my dad trying to order one, me telling him there's no such item and he'd reply: "We'll see about that." Which is, of course, my dad's spin on "I don't know about that".
It might be good to consider ads (pre-filmed) separately from skits (live). I doubt I'll see an SNL ad that surpasses "Compulsion" with Phil Hartman and Jan Hooks, but the details on "Alexa Silver" put it up in that neighborhood. Belushi's "Little Chocolate Donuts" is also a front-runner for me.

Agreed. He's one of the only actors that I've literally been able to follow my whole life starting with All That and Kenan and Kel when I was a kid. The crazy thing, he just doesn't seem to age!
@@kevinilango7896 He really doesn't. It's wild how you can look up old All That clips and he's virtually identical to how he looked, sounded, and acted back then.
Beck and Cecily are not getting enough credit for their spot-on voices here. He TOTALLY sounds like a generic voice over guy, and she is almost indistinguishable from the real Alexa. 👏
Oh yeah here’s a story having to do with your last name. Years ago my mom and I were in a restaurant and 2 cops sat next to us (white cops). She started talking to them and one said his name was GLOVER and she said “Like Danny Glover?” Ha. He just chuckled.
Sadly, I can confirm this skit to be 100 percent accurate. My elderly mother is driving me nuts with echo. Calling it "Alexis", "Alexia"... then wondering why it won't work. Why did I get this for her? WHY? I finally put one in my room so I can tell it to turn off the front room light when my mother repeatedly tries to do it using the wrong name. Then, when the light goes off, she is so proud of herself, thinking she has done it.
I had a customer today named Odessa- she was elderly and kept saying "huh?" And "what?" And then when she finally heard me she said "I don't know about that." I laughed so hard i had to mute the phone.
This 👏🏾 is 👏🏾my 👏🏾 mom! I have watched this so many times. Every time she does something like this I watch it again. The other day she told me she forgot Alexa's name and kept calling her Allison and then Alicia.
Some people think this is just an SNL skit! It is a major marketing ploy! This isn't a joke, it is seriously needed! And please don't tell me, 'I don't know about that'! 🤣🤣🤣
When my niece was in Elementary school she had a friend named Alexa and another friend Erica. The niece gave me an Alexa for Christmas a couple of years age. One day I was upset that Alexa wasn't playing John Prine songs when I realized I was asking Erica to play John Prime songs. LOL
Same here! The other day when I visited my folks my dad said "Alexa" once and asked a question. Then a minute later he asked her anothet question but did not say her name and said "it doesn't even work." (I know there is a setting where you don't have to say her name repeatedly but I don't know how much of a pause it allows and even if I did, I wouldn't want to have to explain it to my father 100 times over how many seconds it is). Every single damn time he does something wrong he blames it on the computer/tablet/smartphone manufacturer. If he forgets to turn off his computer or the TV, he blames it on the computer, says it is broken and automatically comes back on. 😤
@@dennycatlett3581 I have been going to concerts since 1982. I have seen Bowie, U2, the Stones, Sting. Best concert ever was John Prine, I want to say it was 2010. He did not take a single break played his heart out. Had the energy of musicians that could have been his grandkids. And his storytelling about his songs was what it always has been. What a wonderful old soul he was. I miss him so much.
@@kjohn5224 I mean people constantly use generic masculine pronouns when they don't know someone's gender. It might be a little weird but not sure it deserves a whole comment dedicated to pointing it out. It also might be possible (if unlikely) that they know who did the prop work.
I'm 66 and in excellent health. I live alone and have no family. But I'm not sure I'm ready yet for Andrea to be my main companion - I just don't know 'bout that...
This is too funny. I have actually seen this exact scenario play out with my grandfather. He was calling it Alisa and getting mad because she wouldn't do anything. He also told her to clean the shit out of her ears when she didn't understand what he was saying.
When I first watched it live, at first I didn't get that joke and thought he was yelling his kids name to complain about the machine he thought was broken. It wasn't until they got to the part about it responding to any name that I caught on.
“Anita what them boys up to ‘cross the street?” “They are just playing.” “They what now?” “They are just playing.” “You said they just playin’ now?” “Yes, They are just playing.” “Hmm. I don’t know about that.”
This is my mama, she's the love of my life, but she's loosing her hearing. And got the nerve to get mad when you ask her to turn the volume up on the TV. She says she rather read lips. I was thinking about Alexa for her, after looking at this, naahh.
He'll never leave the show because he can't really act and would never be successful in movies or television (besides SNL). It's sad but it's 100% true. By the time he leaves, it'll only be because he dies of old age. He will eventually look like his character in this skit in about 10-15 more years lol.
I bet Amazon adds "Uh huh" as a response to certain input as one of their easter eggs. One of my favs is, Alexa, who let the dogs out? Answer: Who who who who
@nunchaku101, the clipper chip endorsed by then-vice president al gore was the beginning of domestic surveillance. It was fought off repeatedly. After 911, that's when they started to employ spectrometers in cavity searches, and invasion of privacy became a standard practice.
A group in my English class just used this to present an example of mockery and my teacher is about 78 years old and she was almost on the floor dying she was laughing so hard the entire time😂
Danielle Sing - when I first saw this one on TV, I thought he was calling his children. It wasn't until they got to the part where they list all the different names it will respond to that I got that joke.
It's like talking to my Dad. "Daughter, turn up the damned heat! It's freezing in here." "Dad, the dog passed out from heat stroke ten minutes ago! It's 93 degrees in here!"
Send a check or money order lol. My 83 year old dad... Has a BBA from a University in Manila. He's a 2-time cancer survivor and still owns a flip phone, doesn't know how to text, has never used a computer, doesn't believe in having a credit card and still pays his bills by mailing in a check. He was a successful businessman and has a perfect credit score. Bless his heart!
Make that 5 years later, 2022. Still laughing because I have one and drives me up the wall with, 'I can't understand you right now, try again later'....
Keenan: "I gave him $5 dollars and he said I gave him $1 and I know I gave him $5 because I only had $1 & $5 in my pocket..." Shows $5 bill now you tell me whos crazy" 😂
I've laughed, shared and rewatched multiple times! Every scene and line is hysterical! My 89 year-old mother had a lengthy back-and-forth conversation with Alexa. I wish I could have recorded it. I think my mom actually thought she was talking to a real person! LOL
I'm visiting my friend's dad, and he keeps saying "I don't know about that", and it knocks the wind out of me, it's so funny. Just the way he says it. He must be in his seventies. I always enjoy visiting him.
lolol The funny part is that when Alexa doesn't know what you're talking about or doesn't understand you, she will say "Sorry. I don't know about that."

It makes me so happy that Kenan has stuck with comedy for so long. He’s literally been doing it my whole life and he’s hilarious!
Agree anything he does is brilliant
I love that guy
Agreed. He's one of the only actors that I've literally been able to follow my whole life starting with All That and Kenan and Kel when I was a kid. The crazy thing, he just doesn't seem to age!
I'm convinced he could read from a phone book and it would be hilarious.
I love him! My favorites are this and black Jeopardy.😊
@@kevinilango7896 He really doesn't. It's wild how you can look up old All That clips and he's virtually identical to how he looked, sounded, and acted back then.
This is the funniest SNL sketch since the 80s. I laughed so hard I nearly cried.
I've been watching SNL since 1977 and this skit must be in the Top Ten of all time.

"What's in my hand?"
"The five dollars"
"I don’t know about that"

Fair play to him
Even the end of the commercial where you find out how to pay was designed for people who don't use the internet. I love it.
Not many people, like us, caught that joke.

We just got our parents the Echo Show and Dad already said, “it’s broken...the Elixer is broken!” ( Hadn’t been set up yet, lol!)
Oh yeah here’s a story having to do with your last name. Years ago my mom and I were in a restaurant and 2 cops sat next to us (white cops). She started talking to them and one said his name was GLOVER and she said “Like Danny Glover?” Ha. He just chuckled.

Sadly, I can confirm this skit to be 100 percent accurate. My elderly mother is driving me nuts with echo. Calling it "Alexis", "Alexia"... then wondering why it won't work. Why did I get this for her? WHY? I finally put one in my room so I can tell it to turn off the front room light when my mother repeatedly tries to do it using the wrong name. Then, when the light goes off, she is so proud of herself, thinking she has done it.
God bless you. Lol
Oh my gosh, I watch this over and over. It cracks me up. Whoever was the writer for this skit/commercial should get an award.

You say, "Moreover, Jesse done cracked up"? Well now that's too bad.

Oh my god, my grandmother's house was like a sauna!
I was always afraid of the space heater in my great-grandmothers house. I thought something would catch on fire.
My dad actually kept his furnace on in the summer to make sure it never dropped below 80F in his house.
Yeeessss! I walked into my mother-in-law's apt once, and nearly had a heat stroke right in the doorway. #truestory

This 👏🏾 is 👏🏾my 👏🏾 mom! I have watched this so many times. Every time she does something like this I watch it again. The other day she told me she forgot Alexa's name and kept calling her Allison and then Alicia.
Some people think this is just an SNL skit! It is a major marketing ploy! This isn't a joke, it is seriously needed! And please don't tell me, 'I don't know about that'! 🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
When my niece was in Elementary school she had a friend named Alexa and another friend Erica. The niece gave me an Alexa for Christmas a couple of years age. One day I was upset that Alexa wasn't playing John Prine songs when I realized I was asking Erica to play John Prime songs. LOL
Same here! The other day when I visited my folks my dad said "Alexa" once and asked a question. Then a minute later he asked her anothet question but did not say her name and said "it doesn't even work." (I know there is a setting where you don't have to say her name repeatedly but I don't know how much of a pause it allows and even if I did, I wouldn't want to have to explain it to my father 100 times over how many seconds it is). Every single damn time he does something wrong he blames it on the computer/tablet/smartphone manufacturer. If he forgets to turn off his computer or the TV, he blames it on the computer, says it is broken and automatically comes back on. 😤
@@dennycatlett3581 I have been going to concerts since 1982. I have seen Bowie, U2, the Stones, Sting. Best concert ever was John Prine, I want to say it was 2010. He did not take a single break played his heart out. Had the energy of musicians that could have been his grandkids. And his storytelling about his songs was what it always has been. What a wonderful old soul he was. I miss him so much.
I can't get enough of this skit. It's hilarious!
Note the plastic covered couch with the 100 degree lady. This is brilliant!

One of the scrolling names listed that sounds "remotely close" to Alexa is 'Excedrin'
Lesley Jones reminds me of my Grandma Evelyn, who was deeply suspicious of kids playing.
🤣

Hey, you know what they say about kids who play across the street? We don't know about that.
They what now?
That's how it all starts...with kids playing.
My sister bought my grandpa an Alexa and literally all he says to it is, “Hello” “Goodnight” and “good evening” lol
LOL that's cute. He doesn't want her help, but he's still a gentleman about it.

SNL totally nailed this one. Keep coming back to this and it's funny every time. Excellent!
Not gonna lie, that is more aesthetically pleasing than the regular Echo.
honestly this is a good idea especially for seniors who live by themselves. something they can have random conversations with
Yup. I live alone in a retirement community and find Alexa easy to talk to.....

This is too funny. I have actually seen this exact scenario play out with my grandfather. He was calling it Alisa and getting mad because she wouldn't do anything. He also told her to clean the shit out of her ears when she didn't understand what he was saying.
😂😂😂😂
"Clean the shit out of your ears." lmfao, love it.
This is one of the funniest and most accurate sketches I've ever seen. It's hilarious every time! Amanda! Angelica! Odessa! Andrea!
I couldnt agree more. I was dying every time they used a new name.
HILARIOUS and this skit is not political (thank god!).
When I first watched it live, at first I didn't get that joke and thought he was yelling his kids name to complain about the machine he thought was broken. It wasn't until they got to the part about it responding to any name that I caught on.

I never tire of this skit.
I'm going to cry when Kenan leaves the show.
Kenan can never leave. It's in the Constitution
Don’t play like that 🤣
we need him for life
He'll never leave the show because he can't really act and would never be successful in movies or television (besides SNL). It's sad but it's 100% true. By the time he leaves, it'll only be because he dies of old age. He will eventually look like his character in this skit in about 10-15 more years lol.

Alexa does now respond to "Alexa Silver" by saying, "I'm not sure about that. Uh huh" and showing a link to this video in the app. :)

I bet Amazon adds "Uh huh" as a response to certain input as one of their easter eggs. One of my favs is, Alexa, who let the dogs out? Answer: Who who who who
I want an echo that looks like that.
Emma Sieger right

@nunchaku101, the clipper chip endorsed by then-vice president al gore was the beginning of domestic surveillance. It was fought off repeatedly. After 911, that's when they started to employ spectrometers in cavity searches, and invasion of privacy became a standard practice.
