I wonder if this is just Kenan's normal life being the most experienced cast member
The best thing to happen to SNL.
fr though
He is the best 👌
Yeah but even the other OGs have been on the show for well over a decade as well. Literally only the newcomers are inexperienced.
change the avatar, man...
"Wash your mouth!" "Actually, it's watch." "Oh okay. Wash your watch!" LOL
that was my favorite part! 🤣🤣🤣
I literally spit my drink out!
Ok. For you sele
Wash instead of watch and wash your watch! That was funny!'
I laughed a ridiculous amount!
My favorite part of this sketch is that they’ve put so much effort into creating a coherent story, yet we can infer that at some point in Act 2, things have regressed to “what time is it? DONG O CLOCK!”
th-cam.com/video/2zdcNWdCGEs/w-d-xo.html
as do most irish stage productions. It’s tradition
That's funny 😄
AWOOOOGAH!
@@ethanwatson6131 couldnt have said truer words myself
For people who aren’t major theater geeks, here is some background:
- There was controversy because people recorded Jesse Williams’ nude scene in the play Take Me Out and then posted the videos online.
- There was a different controversy where Taron Edgerton dropped out of a play called Cock and was replaced by his understudy and the theater continued selling tickets at an outrageous price.
- There’s been ongoing problems in musicals and plays where sometimes most of the cast has been covered by understudies or swings in order to save the show (Six, Heathers, The Music Man, etc.).
Thank you for some context to the inside joked.
I almost saw that show with Jonathan Bailey but yeah, tickets were outrageously expensive, even with Edgerton not in it.
Thanks mate!
Nice to be able to appreciate the inside joke for this sketch.
I know they made a joke about that one actor getting his nudes leaked while on Broadway.
But what's the difference between that and when Daniel Radcliffe when on stage naked?
“The penis is also being understudied, so I’m excited to see what that’s like!”
This sketch was gold! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
WTF?
Selina isn't aging well
@@Ron-fc6vj she's fine; as heck.
@@Ron-fc6vj She isn't 15 anymore. That doesn't mean she is aging poorly. Do you want her to still look 15?
@@XanderHarris1023 She still looks 15 which is also weird.
Everything this episode has been chaotic and I absolutely love it
th-cam.com/video/mpOkBNG6Elg/w-d-xo.html
Finally it’s here.
Yes! I love it & Mercury really is in retrograde.
I don't think you have any idea what the word chaotic actually means.
@@jaxsun72 wha-
There’s nothing funny here at all Rohan don’t encourage this crap
As a theatre designer who just opened a play in which they had to bring in understudies to cover the understudies… I am relating to this *so* damn hard.
We're fix'n to open ours this Friday (Distracted). While thankfully the full cast which I'm in took the necessary pre-cautions (everyone is vaccinated + booster + four straight weeks of rehearsals with masks on), this still hit "so damn hard" as my directors worse nightmare (She once directed a play where people were still "on-book" during tech week).
as someone who went to go see the preview of play recently where a decent portion of the cast were understudies...this was also relatable :D
@@jonathancook1096 Oh, I've designed that show twice! (sound) That one's a doozy.
@@katharinehorowitz1709 I play "The Three Doctors" (Broder, Jinks, & Karnes). My Broder comes off would what would be best described Wolfman Jack with a Tommy Chong speech pattern. Jinks is done straight monotone (except when I break fourth wall) and Karnes is a really bad Balki accent (before he breaks fourth wall). I also learned how to say a lot of "funny words" like "Methylphenidate" and "Clonidine". Oh, and I got some backstage trench stories if you want hear some (regarding me, not my castmates) since you're familiar with the show.
But is the penis an understudy?
"I need.....line"
"I need money for whiskey"
"Sorry...I don't have any money"
"No that's your line"
Lmfao
Abbott and Costello would have been proud.
I can't believe they pulled this freakin skit off. That was Kenan. He makes it look real easy. Kudos.
Love how Selena's character just refuses to give up her Australian accent, it's so much attitude in so few lines, she's _already_ the understudy, what's he gonna do, get _her_ understudy?
It's also funny how Kenan says "Yeah mate, it has to be Seamus" when he was acting out the parts
There are usually multiple understudies, but the curtains already open so yesh
This was very lame
Alex Russo vibes
@@harbinger8035 you
45 seconds in and this is already the most entertaining play I've ever seen.
You REALLY gotta get out more. Or just move from your rectangular state.
It somehow goes downhill from there.
Hahaha that’s sad
Everything about this made me laugh, including the fact that Kenan was feeding them their lines through a prop window. 😅
“But I’m in a fight with my husband so I need to be out of the apartment.” I felt this, as I sit in the bathroom avoiding communicating with my SO.
My favorite line from the whole sketch. Hilarious.
BRROOOO go talk it out
Dump them. Life is so peaceful on the other side, trust me.
@@K4R3N Amen! SINGLE is an acronym: Stress Is Now Gone, Life’s Easier 💯
@@bea4156 omg this made me snort my coffee, why did I never hear this since kicking mine out in '03😉😂😂😂😂 sending this truth to some friends👍💯
"Think of how that baby is gonna grow up" got me so good.
Can't get enough on Selena on SNL! She totally nailed it!
She really did shes so funny😂
♥️♥️
Her delivery was off and she didn't seem to enjoy herself.
@@JenningsFilmsinc she almost seemed sedated. It was odd
Yeah
Yes to these longer form old school sketches. Love that they’ve been going in this direction.
No, this wasn't funny.
@@xanderk84 good to know, good to know.
Puritan from Mayflower enter the chat
Short term memory loss theater all over again. 😂😂 Where is Bill Hader.
Yesssss 😂
That’s what I was thinking too 🤣
Bill Hader is irreplaceable and a gift to us all
Ah, I just said that! Fred coming in in his jacket... 🤣
That was my first thought too 😂😂
Just proving that stage managers are the real heroes
Kenan and Selena were HILLARIOUS! I'm going to look for this sketch forever!
kenan and Cecile*
Hilarious? You have to watch older episodes and see what funny is
@@harbinger8035 If you love the older seasons so much, why come here and drop a deuce all over the new stuff. You do know that comments will push this video to more people right? I don’t get this trollish mindset at all. Did you not get attention as a child?
@dalastdon2574 He was the baby's understudy .
Really wanted to see Cecily's reaction when the dogs came in. She always breaks with them around!
She loves dogs. I really wanted to see Cecily and Selena kiss.
@@CalebJacobs762 had to check the photo cause that could only be said by a 13 year old or someone in their mid-life crisis
@Gavin James LMFAOOOO
@@DrDinoNuggies guess we have our answer
@@DrDinoNuggies not sure why you’re clowning on Caleb for referencing a joke _from the video…_
“IT HAS TO BE NOW!!” 😂😂😂😂😂
The fact that they got three Irish Wolfhounds to really sell the setting 😂
Ow shoot, I SO didn’t pick that up during the scene! (I know: ignorant me)
Thanks for making your comment, I am actually enjoying the joke in the second instance. :))
I think they wrote the skit just to use them.
They're Scottish Deerhounds, not Irish wolfhounds
They were deerhounds. The snouts were too narrow. I got four wolfies of my own they shoulda called me lol
@@cleverfoxcrochet Yeah but they're understudies
Dude, the jokes with the missed lines were actually the best part. Reminded me a bit of old Abbott and Costello humor. Good stuff!
yeah they gave us a little Abbott and Costello snappy flavor. That's not easy!
This is very similar to a UK production called "The play that went wrong" - very funny group.
That's all I thought of! Love this type of humor.
3:20 kills me every time! Cecily and Selena’s confusion is perfect
For those who haven’t heard, a Broadway play “Take me out” had a nude scene. Phone were restricted but someone suck a picture and the leaked image went viral this week. I think this sketch was a reference to that
ya think??
For fecks sake what are you on about??? Are you taking the fecking mickey??? Cor blimey what the actual feck is the matter with you... leave it out for fecks sake...
Thanks for the info. I had no clue here other side of Atlantic.
You’re doing good work. I wish I had seen the comment before the sketch bc it would have been funnier lol.
Definitely that and also Hugh Jackman who did an on-stage speech thanking understudies for their courage of stepping in at short notice.
“Oh I’m sorry… wash your WATCH” absolutely killed me
The part with Selena and Cecily made me laugh., especially since Selena sounded slightly like Gemma. Nice to see Cecily getting to do her old accent work again.
The moment I read 'Irish', I knew Cecily was going to play a major role.
This is literally if Alex Russo was thrown into a play.
Yes it’s exactly like when she played Tinkerbelle!!!
@@evangelynbeltran202 when she whispered "I'm dead" after drinking the poison 😂
😂😂 true
The timing in this was golden and really slapped. Selena was really natural. One of the better skits as of late.
The best part was them say "line" so often that when "line" was in the line, it made foe the perfect back and forth!
02:03 this was too genuine and innocent 😭
Cecily Strong looks amazing in a silk robe👘🙌
AGREE!
Kenan is lovely and hilarious. Man has range.
"You are treading a very thin line"
"Line"
"What!?!"
Soooooo good
You mean a very thin loin?!
I want another episode with Selena 😭 whole episode was hilarious 😭🤣😭🤣😭
The earnest way she said “Sorry, I don’t have any money” took me out XDDDD
2:05 "sry i don't have moeny for whisky" THAT TOOK ME OUT
"wash your watch!" was way to good to not be talked about 😂😂😂
The most underrated parts of this in my opinion: Selena opening the door stage right when the sound came from stage left, the dogs also being understudies, the innocence of I'm sorry I don't have any money' and the fact that this play about an irish mother and daughter fighting somehow devolves into Seamus saying it's dong o clock
Selena's delivery was brilliant!
This is one of my favorite sketches of this season. It just really hits me 😂
This skit could not have come at a better time! I'm cast as the three doctors in a performance of "Distracted" here in the DFW area. We actually start "tech week" on Monday. This would be my director's worse nightmare.
Theatre Three? I miss seeing plays in Dallas :/
@@Tonyhouse1168 This was at Lakesite Community Theater (LCT) over in The Colony (I lived in Lewisville at the time so it wasn't a long commute). I know of Theatre Three and auditioned for them a couple of times but never got cast in anything. We did have a great run with this performance (my current best in regards to performing in a comedy) and even got to add a little Matt Foley (aka Van Down By The River) in some improvised dialogue. 😁 Hope that answered your question.
@@jonathancook7616 absolutely. I’ll have I check you out when I’m back in Texas in a couple months. Good luck to you brother!
This sketch was brilliant, i can WASH it on repeat and never get bored
It's actually "watch"... As in "wash it on watch ..."
@@jannygonzalez8 understood the assignment
@@jannygonzalez8 which wash it on watch?
@@Gl6619 I just trying to say this as an ESL person... "witch watch it on wash" is what I got...
I like the point in the play when Kenan says, “Line”, and Cecily and Selena both ask “What” 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏻♀️, which causes Kenan to ask “What” 🤷🏾♂️. By then, the whole play is just a MESS 🤣
"One, two. three.... FOUR" somehow broke me to pieces 😭
As a theatre kid, this was painful to watch.... But in a good way
SAME
"what is that accent" i wheezed😭🤣
The wigs they put on Kenan are insane.
I never noticed how Selena Gomez can credibly portray so many distinct ethnicities.
when lol
That’s b/c she can’t.
lol what
@@angela1serenity🗿
this proves it to me. we are watching a new snl form. this whole episode has been hilarious and original. the writers and selena are killing it.
She really just left the baby on the table 😂
... it's not like it's gonna get up and WALK away
--Dave, roll, maybe
"I don't have any money" she is way to adorable in this🥰
yess, 😂 and special when she use accent ,irsh,Australian😂😂😂
“You’re treading a very thin line”
“..Line”
“What?”
“What? The word ‘line’ is your line”
So stupid I love it
“Oh ok.. _WASH YOUR WATCH_ “
I’m literally dying I’m sorry
my fav line lol
I need more Cecily and Selena!
Major kudos to whoever came up with this sketch 🤣😹
fun fact - this is based off of a current controversy! Jesse Williams (from gray's anatomy and detroit: become human) is doing a play in which he is naked in a scene, and someone posted a video of him naked on twitter. the theater asked everyone to lock up their pjones at the entrance so its unclear how the camera got in. it was funny to watch this knowing the context!
"The penis is also being understudied, so I’m excited to see what that’s like! ... Our fight may or may not be about the penis in this show ... Is it the penis now? ... It needs an hour to prep ... It's ready and it needs to be now!" I can't remember another SNL sketch that made me blurt out a guttural laugh so many times
this sketch was one of best this whole season. I'm dying
- "Wash you mouth!"
- It's "watch"!
- Oh, I'm sorry. "Wash your watch!"
That was so unexpected, I almost had a spasm lol
Really the only "gag" in the whole sketch until, "Dong O'clock..."
The rest is hyperbole and misrepresentation, but written so well (and performed), that it became a screwball reality.
"The penis is also being understudied." LMAO! So dope!
"Nan, what are you doing with my baby?"
Kenan: What is that accent?🤣🤣🤣🤣
"I need line?" 😂😂
Love you cute priencess with that bangs😘
Chaos. “Is that penis? Seamus?” Lmaoooooo brilliant 👏👏👏
Strong "The Play That Goes Wrong" vibes that I appreciate.
Selena's accent here is hilarious! I love it!
I've never laughed more with a sketch before the main theme, the first part with kenan killed me 🤣 everything he said was hilarious
Kenan was brilliant
I did think for a moment, when they cut away from Kenan, that there was no way the rest of the sketch could live up to the opening. Glad I was wrong.
Selena is just amazing and hilarious.. She is nothing but a queen and we love her. She is the best
So funny! Kenan did such a great job.
He always does lol
?
lmaooo I love how when selena went to the aussie accent it was just like alex russo doing her own thing lol
"A Storm Within" should be NBC next drama. Its a true Peacock Production.
Liz Lemon can produce it!
4:34 the guy on the left of mikey really nailed that
You know to me this feel like how a middle school theatre rehearsals would have gone.
One of the timed bits all season. It helps being very funny.
And the DOGS even looked/worked great...Bravo! Bravo!
Selena is my fav SNL guest!! ♥️♥️♥️
I felt like everything about this was unlike any SNL skit I've seen. Did others feel this way? New writer?
It was pretty farce oriented. Farce is all about keeping the silliness moving snappily. In the wrong hands this is not funny at all. Selena was game!
Look up “memory loss theatre” from snl it’s literally the same sketch
@@williamogden1507 I will!
Keenan crushed it! 😂😂😂😂😂 This has so many theater jokes!
This whole sketch is pure gold
This was the best skit of the week. Great job! I was laughing so hard it caused tears.
I love good actors playing bad actors 😭
Amazing job, Selina, every sketch had us in stitches!
This is the kind of chaos that I love
I love selena she makes this gold.
- Wash your mouth
- It's watch
- Oh, I'm sorry. Wash your watch
🤣
We got it without your help...
“Wash your mouth!”
“It’s WATCH!”
“Oh I’m sorry, Wash your WATCH!”
They have really used Villasenor & it's great! They should do this more.
@@benvoliothefirst watch it again. She’s the audience member w mikey
This is one of the best skits I've seen in years from the snl crew...could not stop laughing
Kenan and Cecil strong never disappoint
The Mischief Theatre’s ‘Play That Goes Wrong’ is clearly an influence here
I like to believe that a number of the scenes in this sketch were improv based on Kenan’s reaction in some of them. Particularly the first one with Selena.
I’m dying😂 “Wash your watch.”
Melissa's character was also fantastic :D
My favorite sketch so far!!!:)
Kenan always bringing it lol
This one was literally the best. Selena killed it 😂
Cecily kills every single skit she’s in. Cecily, Kenan and Selena were amazing in this.
Wow, Selena looks exactly like the chic in the show Jessie!
A very amazing skit. And at 2:01 when Selena says her line there is a laugh. Could it be Cecily?
My god, this was the best sketch in a while and I say that entirely aware that there've been some real bangers lately! This made me laugh so much! 😂
