Okay, Kenan deserves an award just for being able to perfectly mime being on fast forward alone. Not even necessarily an Emmy, just an award. Or multiple awards, really.
I 100% thought kenan’s part was pre recorded and actually fast forwarded then realized the audience was cheering bc they could see him just pantomiming the fast forward so freakin well
This one was probably really really fun to watch live. He's not able to see that stage either so I guess he was going with a cue card or listening for the right line?
@@TrilogyNjStorm The late Jan Hooks did the same thing when she was impersonating Bette Davis on videotape talking to her surviving children. It's on TH-cam.
Even something as simple as hearing him come down the stairs saying something and they have to turn it off on a cliffhanger comment would have been decent
@@ELmayberry The late Jan Hooks did the same thing when she was impersonating Bette Davis on videotape talking to her surviving children. It's on TH-cam.
Kenan is great! He inhabits his roles so joyfully and believably, and has a wide range of subtle excellence. The moment you see him in a sketch, you know it's going to be a good one.
Kenan just kills it every time, his comedic timing and his silly grins always crack me up. When he did that fast-forward movement, it was a priceless T.V. moment. Even the producer/stage manager gave him props at the end.
Shoutout to Kenan for the live fast forward. Great job (especially at first before he ran out of things to do and started just touching things on the desk haha) the titles weren't there when they paused though! He just pauses and you're like i think it's paused but there is no text saying PAUSE II like there would be on a VCR
“ i will never cheat on your mother raw” yo i rewound that part at least 20 times before i even finished the video and the fast forward part had me dying.
Old people will remember "Is it live or is it Memorex?" commercials. This subtle but hilarious twist is so good you forget that fast-forwarding is never this clear.
Kenan is freaking amazing. He definitely nailed it. Everyone knew it bases on the high five and Chest bump he has with the stage guy behind the scene. And from that you can also tell how down to earth and chill this dude is. What a good dude!
KENAN MY BROTHER U HAD OUT DID YOURSELF AS ALWAYS THAT WAS A MIND BLOWING WELL PERFORMANCE 🎭 NO ACTOR COULD NOT DARE TO DO WHAT U HAVE DONE U HAVE RAISED THE BAR BIG TIME I RESPECT UR HARD WORK
@@blakenard5259 well, FF Keenan was the highlight, but I always love seeing how they do split sets like this. On occasion when they have unintended interactions, it gets even better.
"Ain't no tellin what finally took me out . . . Coulda been cuz I ain't drank a glass-a-water in since 2003." - Laughed so hard thought I was gonna die. Then Kenan does fast-forward in real-time (several times).. Blew my mind. Truly wonderful comedy.
The fast forward effect was seriously incredible, props to Kenan
The late Jan Hooks did the same thing when she was impersonating Bette Davis on videotape talking to her surviving children. It's on TH-cam.
Hilarious 🤣🤣🤣
I can't believe Keenan revealed his super power! 😳 👑🤩
Came here to say that. Wow
Also late actor Strother Martin in 1980 in a video will sketch.

That was fucking beautiful!
Same. Really impressive
Kenan has only won 1 Emmy for Outstanding Music and Lyrics. He needs to win another for his acting performances. The guy is simply phenomenal.
Lemme guess...
For the lobster skit?
Best actor for...
"what's up w that?!"
☝️😎💯%💥
Music and lyrics?
Chris Redd should win another Emmy as well for portraying Mayor Eric Adams.
@@csic123 Does he have an Emmy?
Fast Forward Kenan was the funniest bit of physical comedy of the night!
Tapping into his All That experience
I didn't even realize that was live lmao
Kenan never misses
Does anybody realize how good that part was

"Coulda been the 'Rona. Coulda been how I haven't drank a glass of water since 2003". Had me dying, lol
He actually says "in since 2003", which is even funnier.
“Or JB Smoove coming to collect” hahaha!!!
Drink some water then
Me too lolll
Kenan is a genuine light in the comedy world and we are so blessed to have him!!! That was friggin EXCELLENT!!! 🤣😂🤣🤗🤗🤗👍💗💗
So tru 🙌
Not really.
Kenan is incredible. I'm only sad this skit didnt have a resolution
SNL writers don’t know how to do a punchline anymore
Even something as simple as hearing him come down the stairs saying something and they have to turn it off on a cliffhanger comment would have been decent
@@christophermanley3602 Inability to end sketches is a problem SNL already had when Mad TV was still in production.
@@saganrak makes sense, they even rushed Zoe off
Same.
I never knew that seeing Kenan pretending to fast forwarding was something that I needed to see.
right 😂😂
@@ELmayberry The late Jan Hooks did the same thing when she was impersonating Bette Davis on videotape talking to her surviving children. It's on TH-cam.
It was so unexpected. It gave me a good giggle.
@@RaymondHng why do you keep replying this to every comment.
Oop
the “he was on the Jamie Foxx Show” bit is the most dad thing ever 🤣
"I would never cheat on your mother...Raw"...😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
Rauw🤭
What does raw mean?
@@jerryapice1762 without "protection"
Kenan never disappoints. The fast-forward acting. "I'd never cheat on your mother, raw." 😂🤣
The most outrageous part of this skit is the fact that they own a VCR.
And yet I still have mine. Yeah, I’m old school.
@@chrisfinch8637 That's what I'm talking about
I got one in the rack. I even fire it up twice a year, 'cause it won't do the DST automatically anymore due to lack of analog signal...
so what's up with that ? ; )
Obviously a sensible family who have made sure to hold onto their vcr so they can enjoy their home movies without the expense of digitisation.
This skit was genius! Props to the entire team who pulled it off, laughter at its best.
Kenan is the best. Everything he does makes me smile and laugh.
*Kenan
I like at the end seeing the sets and how these skits are performed in front of the audience. Very cool!
It's actually just CGI they add in post to make it look real. Animators do a great job.
Yeah, fun seeing little things like how someone grabs Zoe by the hand and sprints her to the next wardrobe change.
I love JB Smoove. He does not get the recognition he deserves.
Also, Kenan was brilliant in this!
Really? Vegan eggs!? I mean, granted, I don't eat eggs. Not unless they're baked into something. But VEGAN eggs? Disgraceful.
:)

That Fast Forward effect was incredible, most props to Kenan and well done to another hysterical skit.
Ego and Chris have been on a lot lately, it’s great to see.
Chris and Kenan have been on a lot, as well. No wonder they were both meant to be on “Kenan” together.
And Punkie too!
Yes indeed
@@OvSpP yes Punkie! I want to see her do more still.
Kenan is king at SNL..
Such a dedicated and talented actor! 🌟
this skit was completely about kenan fast forwarding ----- and that's perfectly fine, it actually made the skit worth watching
That FastForward bit deserves an award on its own category. Genius!

Give Kenan an Emmy for the flawless fast-forward miming
I love Kenan so much. I really hope he never leaves the show
We need a part two of this sketch! You all better prepare it for next Season.
Not gonna front: Keenan deserves an Emmy for that fast-forward acting! 🏆 That felt like seeing Michael Jackson moonwalk for the first time!

That is host dresser Donna Richards pulling her off the stage. There's a video on her. Search TH-cam for "Saturday Night Live Wardrobe".

"that was only his first flush"...thats some truth
I’m really impressed with how SNL is taking more daring moves.
Not the Googly eyes on the pump! Lmaoooooo! 😭😭😭💀
For Dallas City Bouncers 3, we should get that one guy. What's his name? He used to be on the Cosby Show. I used to do impersonations of him...

I'm impressed with the light rolling effect they gave the Kenan sections. I remember old vhs tapes doing that.
Kenan u killed that FF part bro. That was classic🤣
kenan is a gem & that fast forward was pure TALENT.
"He was on The Jamie Foxx show. He was the main one!"
"JAMIE FOXX!"
The dude dapping up Kenan at the end was the perfect reaction
Keenan is a rock solid pillar of dependable comedy.
That fast forward part is another example of why the "Live" part is so important!
I love how the lamp has the same tracking lines playing over and over every 2 seconds
Kenan is goated for this sketch! The fast forward was amazing.
