Correction: In the Sierramisu graphic, the cake was colored green, as if dyed by the soda, whereas Sierra Mist is actually a clear soda. Only the bottle is green.
You might be the only person on Earth who has ever poured a Sierra Mist and knows this.
Why should the graphic be better than the joke 😉
@jackal has entered the chat 🐾🐾🐾🤣
Nice one!
Now I want to see the graphic department's explanation of this problem.
The complete silence after Karen’s wallaby joke shows how necessary this segment is
Maybe it's a Gen Z joke.
I'm still waiting for the punchline though.
Well, probably because there are none in the uk, in theory ?
I assumed the joke was just that Brits have silly names for things
Yeah, like saying brits call ambulances 'wee-woo wagons'
I thought it was saying that “wallaby” kind of sounds like “wee lil boy”? But not really? I’m stumped.
The funniest joke in this segment is that graphics has real work to do.
Every jackal is suspicious when graphics has to do “real work”. It means someone had to go down there and talk to them
Like putting Trump on roller skates or a pigeon against the wrong brick backdrop.
I imagine his graphic team is 2 guys who usually sit around playing video games and thus get annoyed when a request comes in. Probably compete to see who can make the graphic in less time.
I love how graphics doing some "real work" is something you can do in PowerPoint in two seconds.
@@yesloow Tiramisu, drop the red and blue channels, done.
This is my favorite section 🥰 I absolutely love how Seth doesn't hide his writers, it gives the whole show a touch of sincerity many other good comedy shows lack.
There is that. Of course, a cynical person might say it's also a handy way to pad out 10 minutes by telling some jokes that they couldn't fit in anywhere else (...but not me, obviously) 😉
Also I love the sense we get that his writers are the ones pulling the strings and this is Seth’s only way to push back. it’s like permissive parents begging their kids to just stop and please try, if you want , to be better behaved, please.
@@GusMcGuire Seth does a lot of meta humour which sets him apart from the daily show graduates I think. Like Wally, corrections and the thorn birds/Sea captain story arc during lockdown... love it.
Many? Name, say, three of these shows, ideally shows that exist. In reality.
yep. -love, a fellow jackal🐾
Seth roasting Matt while he's taking it like a champ and also appearing in the studio is so fun
He strikes me as a true artist whose jokes bomb so bad it's mesmerising even to his boss. That's talent right there 🤣
I hope Seth is forced to eat a Sierra Mistsu on corrections.
Matt got that new new
Needs to have his photo updated.
Someone who looks like a stunt double for one of the cast of The Big Bang Theory should be used to getting roasted.
Honestly, "The heart intended for your grandma" sounds like a Michael Che punchline.
Also, the peanut butter one was a bit of a slow burn, but I liked it.
That makes one of us! Arf! Bark!
Yes!!!! It really did sound like something Michael Che would say. 😆
Omg that’s exactly what I thought! I was like this joke belongs on snl, definitely something Che would say and then the audience would groan and he’d be “what 🤷🏾♂️”
I loved that heart joke because **rant** until the nineties the American Heart Association only funded heart research for old white men. My son was born with a heart defect in 1987. He died in 2004. In the meantime Dick Cheney was getting a state of the art treatment.
I like the peanut butter/ dog joke, too. Maybe because, as a dog mom, it was relatable.
Hats off to Matt for coming to see his jokes bomb in real time.
Art comes from pain.
With these jokes, pain comes from art.
It’s rare for nearly every joke to eat it so hard during the inspection. Excellent work by all the team +1
Usually the jokes are just silly but this round, like the peanut butter and wallaby and last jokes, I really didn't get them.
@@rabbit251 If you didn't get the peanut butter joke, then be happy that you had a wholesome enough upbringing to not get it.
@@HiEv001 lol, true
Think nuts.... That's it. The dude scollins is so offended over his tank top thing that his boss never lets down and even ridiculed on that God forsaken segment every end of week that this is his revenge. These jokes. Either too lame or kinda disturbing.
@@HiEv001 I haven't done it, but I've seen enough of it to feel like I have.
Don’t you dare ever censor or edit anything Scollins writes! The man is a national treasure! His jokes, like his arms, should never be hidden away!
Okay "Mister NOT Scollins"...
I thought Scollins Peanut Butter/Dog joke was cute. Not laugh out loud funny, but it made me smile
I'll take even Scollin's "bad jokes" they were still the best of the bunch
I just want Scollin’s quotes on a billboard. The man is a national treasure.
SCOLLINS!
Finally got to see my favorite show IN PERSON yesterday! Asked Seth a question in the audience and SHOOK WALLY’S HAND!!! Awesome experience. THANK YOU!
Omg I'm jealous!
Was the question you asked "may I shake Wally's hand?"?
@@mainemade73 Wally even gave me a signed cue card that reads, “Thanks for being a Wally fan!!” such a badass!!!
@@jb888888888 OMG That would have been brilliant! I asked about how much Mac Tonight memorabilia/nightmare fuel they’ve collected. I wish they’d let me come to a taping of Corrections!
A signed Wally card?! 😮 👏 👏👏
1:29 apparently I wasn't the only one who heard _"Scollins_ celebrated Burns supper" instead of Scotland, the closed captions say the same thing 😂 on listening to it again, I think he does say Scotland but like Scollins was still on his mind from the joke before 😅
I heard it too, lol. I thought the punchline of Dads doing burn supper, would be that they do a roast battle dad-joke style.
When Seth did the set up for the Hypnotist Day joke, my first thought was “glad the day is over because I’m getting sleepy, I’m getting so very sleepy.”
you should be a writter
@@jawstrock2215 righter
@@jawstrock2215 q
Definitely a much better joke, hope he uses it on Corrections 🤞
That's so much better than the weird ass duck in a well joke.
I like how Seth has gone from absolutely hating the Surprise Inspection graphic to just accepting that it's there and moving on
The fact that the first time he saw it he was like "they'll come up with something better next time" and they never did and he never mentioned it again
"way too long"
Plus the cuts aren't even synchronized with the audio ugh
I still hate it.
This is brilliant! He's roasting them but also letting his audience know there's a team, people, behind the scenes that help him be great, even in their sucky moments 🤣
Why would Dick Cheney need my grandmother's heart? He's gotten along fine without one his whole life.
Because he eats the hearts he collects in front of his victims. Just kidding, he contracts that out to Halliburton.
@@Happytravellerkimmy underappreciated.
@@Happytravellerkimmy Beat me to it.
Dick Cheney, ya burnt!
I wonder if Scollins is waiting an entire year before he storms into the office and demands to know what this "Surprise Inspection" bit is. 🤣
I'd love to see a bit where one of the writers barges on set after one of the bad jokes and calls him out. "You said you loved that joke! Did you hate as well? Fine, you're getting Dad jokes for a month!"
@@anthonystrickland7049 "You don't like Scollins' joke? LEAVEMALONE!"
I legitimately had tears in my eyes over the sierra misu part
It was the graphic that nailed it!
I liked that one!
Same here!!! 😆 🤣 😂
I have never seen this bit before, just shows how charismatic Seth actually is because he can actually tell the jokes and you want them to be funny.
They would just call this “Jokes that Jimmy Fallon would definitely tell and laugh at even if he didn’t get the joke”
@@MyAngrySanta joke, laugh and fallon don't belong in the same sentence
You can always tell a Scollins joke even before Seth names him, his dark humor like that heart joke always makes me laugh out loud 🤣 It's great to see Seth's awesome writers get the credit they deserve!
Karen Chee is brilliant. They should do more of those bits of Seth & Karen where they show pictures of things to each other & see if the other person knows what it is. 😂 Hilarious.
I feel like there's a point where Karen shows Seth a piece of paper, and Seth is like "What is this?", and Karen is like "It's the cost of rent in New York we need a raise", and the whole writing team appears on set with arms crossed.
(Real talk though.. we might really be looking at a writer's union strike soon, regardless of how well Seth treats his team. Rumblings be getting louder.)
Karen could be telling the world's worth knock knock jokes AND WE |WOULD STILL LOVE HER.
@@tanadarko6991 Knock, knock.
Who's there?
Keyboard.
Keyboard who?
Meh, you're not my type.
She's hilarious and adorable, much like Amber.
Karen is so cute. I love those segments with her and Seth comparing things from when they were growing up.
Have to say, usually I like some of the jokes in this segment, but these time there were all truly failures. Wonderful.
The "crossover" one was pretty good.
The Wednesday "here's the Thing" and the Sierra Mistui jokes had me crying laughing! 🤣 😂 😹
Embracing the suck.
Liked the Wednesday one😊
I didn't get the Prince Harry mother puddle thing - what did that mean?
I swear I knew the wallaby joke was Karen’s before he even said her name. It just had a such a sweet childlike earnestness to it I couldn’t imagine it being anyone else’s
Scollins nailed the Cheney joke and the opposite day jokes.
'Opposite day' was solid (no pun intended), but fits Scollins' persona better than Seth's.
Omg thank you! I did not get the urinal joke! I see it now. ew. 😂
And peanut butter tbh
Gotta love these surprise inspections! Seth really puts his writers in their place *he says sarcastically *
Seth does say "Here's the Thing," some. Best guy to tell the joke 😆
He never gave credit to whoever wrote that one.
It's been so long since Karen's been on this segment which means usually she's only writing bangers
This one was a banger if Seth had delivered it right.
@@DBirdie And bangers are what the British call little... oh, never mind.
The hedgehog bangers or the red squirrel bangers?
This is why I love Seth's show. Making real segments about his writers.
Just ike with Jackals, making real connections.
Surprise Inspection of his writers is my favorite. It gives us a glimpse on what it takes to be
a writer for a living.
It's looking like it mainly takes being in the right place while milling around
"It's a crossover" LMAO!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
this is the funniest thing Seth has done in studio. who knew bad jokes were so fun? and Seth's personality shines in this segment. excellent!
the Wednesday joke was solid
Agree! And we didn't hear who wrote it 😭
The Opposite Day/urinal joke was solid. 😅🤣
@@mags7848I see what you did there
@@pistachoo. 😘❤️
I burst out laughing at "crossover".
I definitely thought the punchline to the Sierra Mist joke was going to be "It will be Sierra Missed"
This definitely ended in a Baze of glory!
He Bazes you good night.
Seth shows us how to Baze a turkey!
If his first name was Baze and his last name ended with an L, we could call him Baze L.
If he ever wrote a movie for Mel Brooks it would be called "Bazing Saddles."
He was invited to try out for football, with Green Baze Packers.
How funny! This was so terrific. He and his writers have such a great rapport and friendship! I really liked Matt who was actually there and took it all as good fun! He was terrific. Thank you Seth for another great episode! I also loved the Wednesday/Thing joke, think that should be given high praise!
love it when Seth gives credits to his people
I wonder what it’s like working for him. He seems fun and chill. I’m sure there’s a serious side, but he doesn’t seem to be disrespectful or unkind.
Some of these portmanteaus required really careful pronunciation, so hats off to Seth. (I'm sure he worked extra hard to make sure the jokes would fall flat on the premise, rather than the delivery. :)
That Wednesday joke was perfect. I wanna say in was Karen, but we may never know.
My money’s on Karen or Ally
Feels like a dad joke, I'm betting on Brian.
The mystery is burning me to my very core, which is the first workout it's had in decades.
Best joke didn't get the credit. For shame Seth.
When I hear a joke in the format "It's national X day", I immediately think of Scollins and give a shout out to his hose.
Or his hoes.
💀 AWESOME! That was better than any of the paid writers!!
@@johnobrien2373 th-cam.com/video/HXb7cJ_YQI0/w-d-xo.html
I've never seen Seth take a joke as personally as the Sierra Mist one, that was fantastic.
The Cheney joke was the best
joke all night.
I quite like that Cheney joke, actually.
This Segment is one of my favorites because it really allows you to actually get to know the writers, because laughing at their good jokes is great n all, but seeing their failures, really to their desperate attempts to submit content shows much more about them than any joke that butchers the audience.
As a person who occasionally speaks english. I laughed at the brit joke, you see I had the bonnet up on the lorrie checkin the tickover with a torch when I heard it.
There are usually some that aren't too bad in here, but that was a pretty rough crop of jokes. It's actually good to have this segment just to remind everyone that writing jokes isn't easy.
Do you really expect me to believe that as the youngest writer on the show Karen Chee doesn't watch this on TH-cam even if she doesn't see it live? She totally knows her joke got burned.
The Wednesday joke deserved airtime!
I also think so.
That Dick Cheney joke was GOLD!
no way, the Chris Sununu had me cracking up!! that was a great joke
Also, the peanut butter, but my dog just had surgery so...... made sense to me
What did the pb joke mean?? After hearing it was by Scollins, my brain went to the ‘man puts pb on his balls for dog to lick off’ trope
That was a joke about putting peanut butter on your genitals and having a dog lick it off. Not so funny now, is it? Or is it funnier? I don't even know anymore.
@@nicholasleemarks That IS the peanut butter joke. I'm wondering what a dog having surgery has to do with peanut butter...
@@nicholasleemarks to give your dog pills it can be easier to hide then in peanut butter.
The peanut butter joke was two jokes in one: an innocent joke about tricking your dog in to taking his meds, and an old dirty joke. My reaction: “Scollins!”
I legit cracked up at Sierra Misu. I would be cheering ^_^
i legit laughed out loud at "but here's The Thing."
at least half old those were gold esp. the 'crossover' ☺🤓
7:50 Good one! Reminds me of an idea for a sequel I heard years ago: "Passion 2: Theyve CROSSED The Wrong Guy!" 👿😆
When Mike puts his name on the joke, you could call it his Scollinscard… (hold for groans)
The last joke was absolutely worth the wait 😆😆 this segment rules lol
Can you explain it to me? I didn’t get it
@@kgrim024 the joke was those two men are hot and would…let’s say titillate your mother.
@@kgrim024 Your mom is turned on by Anderson Cooper and Prince Harry. And apparently could not contain herself when the two of them appeared together
@@kgrim024 it took me a minute because my brain interpreted it literally at first and I was like "what does sitting in a puddle have to do with this?" but it's referring to the fact that older women find Anderson Cooper and Prince Harry both very attractive. The puddle she's sitting in is coming from her vagina.
@@kgrim024 Ditto
I love these inspections!
That Sierra Mist joke was gold 😂😂
I'm a vet, and I immediately laughed at the peanut butter joke.
Just love these segments showing the writers 😂
I like how Seth really had to be aggressive with trying to get the audience to boo with him at the SierraMisu joke 'cause he knew damn well that was a legit solid joke lol
I knew Seth was going to bring up Graphics on that Sierra Mist joke 😂😂😂
I *LOVE* this bit. 😂❤️
edit: the Ian expression will never not get me 😭
Much respect to Matt Goldditch for showing up in person to see his joke get burned by Seth and taking it like a champ. The second joke made sense as a play on words of Tiramisu.
“We write to taste life twice, in the moment and in retrospect.”
― Anaïs Nin (1903-1977)
I actually enjoyed Seths roast of the jokes and jokesters, however there were also a few gems thrown in there that I actually found funny😂
I actually loved the Sununu joke 😂
#CORRECTION!!! That Sierra Mistui joke was hilarious!!! 😆 🤣 😂
Also, the *Wednesday* "here's the Thing..." 😅😄🤣😆😁😅😂🤣😂
Jackal from Denmark here to teach you a bit of English/American grammar and phonetics:
When it is formulated
"The country needS a new new voice,"
... the pun makes sense (as far as puns goes, as opposed to if the offending writer had written
"His slogan is "I am a new new voice," or other phrases lacking the S in the politicians name.
Oh yay! I love surprise inspections.
I can’t tell if it would amazing or terrifying to work for Seth. I mean being publicly shamed. But also having a good time doing it.
The "ooooooold" joke was kickin'!
It's really amazing to me how you could easily tell which one is a Mike Scollins joke. Bravo, Seth! Bravo!
Seth's delivery is brilliance itself
I love this as a way to get to know all the amazing writers on the show. I would be the person who cheered for Karen if I was there too.
This segment is the best. 😂
A wallaby: a young boy who aspires to grow up & be just like “Cue Card Wally” aka…
Wall-a-be👏🏾😂👏🏾 and literally -
Rofl at Karen’s inner joy v. Seth’s whole vibe!
You guys should bring back the segment "What does Karen know" that was always hilarious!
A Closer Look; Surprise Inspection; Corrections -- the 3 greatest bits on tv today. runner-up: Seth explains a joke
Should also add "Jokes Seth Can't Tell" to the greatest bits list too :)
Correction: corrections is not televised
@@giorgiabalsarin4363 dammit. well played.
There’s always “Jokes Seth Can’t Tell” to fill in for Corrections not being part of the broadcast
Don't forget "Back in my Day"
Best segment. Even better than corrections. Also Scollins never misses
Surprise inspections are THE BEST!!!🎉
Tbh that grandma's heart joke was great
Peanut butter and urinal jokes made me lol.
Sierra Mistu had me rolling...and the graphic.
This is such a good segment lol
The intro to this segment is so good it never needs to change.
I can usually call almost every Scollins joke so imagine my surprise when it was BAZE behind that last one 😂
He out-Scollins Scollins!
I wish they'd just left the graphic of the skull, tbh!
I want Karen to come out and explain herself.
You just wanna see her in person. We all do.
Still loved’em!
omg YESSS… Was just thinking to myself the other day how we were overdue for a surprise inspection - one of my fave segments 💛
Seth, please, please, please do a surprise inspection of the Graphics department.
The urinal joke was hilarious! 💯
We're lucky. He could have made it disgusting.
They should show this video during the writers union negotiations as an example of how integril the writers are.
taking indecipherable jokes and making something out of them is COMIC GENIUS! Seth for PRESIDENT!
I laughed so hard I cried. Thanks, I needed that.
I love that all it takes for Seth to be on Graphics' side is the writers being on their bs.
I looooove when this segment comes up. It seems to always puzzle the studio audience, but I'm dying at home
Do you think Seth and the team know how funny this sketch is? Watching these is a true delight!
Brilliant! Spammer using curiosity to get people to message him. 😃
Sununu joke made me laugh. Love this segment.
You're the best, Seth!
"Watch out for the teeth!"
Still laughing.
"Yeah, but those teeth, Seth! . . . Two holes!" 😂
What?
Seth is the best
The joke about Thing was amazing 😂
