If you do not know, what makes this triply-funny is Ms. Applegate truly IS a lauded, genuine, 100%-certified sought-after Tony-nominated Broadway dancing sensation… specializing in slinky Fosse-style dance, no less!! Many of you already know this, but I’m pointing it out for the only-know-her-from-_Married-with-Children_ crowd!
It's rare for a host to perform such a well-developed, thoroughly thought-out character like this. With a performance as detailed as this, Christina Applegate seems like a cast member.
@@TokyoBlue587 Yeah, but it's a shame the choreography/direction of that production wasn't the original Fosse one. It was actually not bad, but I felt like the choreo/direction could have been a lot better. For deviations of Fosse/Verdon's version, I preferred the Sutton Foster Off-Broadway version because although it really deviated from Fosse, it seemed to have more a solid POV that it wanted to be.
it’s amazing because this is exactly how higher up, more professional/airheaded master choreographers teach. conventions and classes really do go this fast and those noises instead of counts...ugh PTSD
Except for when she had to take part in the first Matt Foley sketch. I can't blame her for breaking during that, though. You'd have to be a literal stone to keep a straight face with Farley going crazy right next to your face, lol.
@@MrJamberee Wow that's so crazy.. It's been a whole year and your comment generated ZERO likes. That has to mean that everything you said was complete bullshit.
What an amazing sketch and performance by Christina, she basically changed the original joke of the sketch, silly teacher does silly dances, and made it: silly teacher does AMAZINGLY DIFFICULT AND AWESOME DANCE MOVES.
Okay, a few things: 1) Why was their Fosse learning process so relatable!?!? I was in Sweet Charity a few years back (school production) and this was all of us learning Fosse for the first time. We were just so confused on how to move or what to move until we weren't. We did practice like crazy people for over 2 months, but still, one day it just clicked. Now I ka-konk and ga-ga-ga-ga literally out of habit! 2) True, jazz hands isn't a Fosse staple (you can find it in Rich Man's Frug though). The isolation stuff definitely was. I was smiling so much from seeing that in there. *The Most Important One* 3) I was fortunate enough to do a long workshop with an incredible dancer who was in Fosse on Broadway. She was rhythmic, but don't worry... she counted. :)
Haha I had a similar experience but my dance teacher would be like "5678 and shoulder shoulder hands UP straight down! And ba! Ba! Third time ba!" etc. etc haha
Love this..... I'm in 5th grade orchestra for the first time and Ms Johnson proceeds to talk in same accent as Jillian Chizz... talking 40 years ago..... just so absorbed in her craft and makes mention of Julliard.... when she'd play she'd have that serious face and sway and do pronounced motions with her arms and upper body.....we're in Texas by the way..... I would venture to say she was a well trained violinist.....I mean there was very few a day that I wasn't playing ball at recess and then to sit in class with a violin on my lap and seeing this....I was fortunate enough to have her..... thank you Ms Johnson.....God bless everyone and please be safe
I was in dance class at U if Michigan with MADONNA. Of course she was just a student. I made it until she decided to drop out. Now I just have my own badunk dunk
Me when I have a competition in a week and I haven't finished choreographing my solo and I haven't really danced in like 2 months!!!! I'm just slightly freaking out and decided to vent to your poor soul... sorry?
@@knyfe-wrench2015 no, talent is always there but it takes time to develop. It's a gift someone always has. Ability is something anyone can acquire regardless of who or what you are. Talent is usually unique, indifferent, and not like any other. Michael Jackson is a prime example. A 5 year old that can sing and dance as good as adults. He was born with that and got better at. Talent can be made better, but talent isn't acquired. The ability to do something good isn't a talent.
She nailed Bob fosse 100 %. This is funny because it's SNL. Bob fosse is no joke he changed dance permanently like the bebop musicians who changed jazz.
Joel Stern Most of the SNL hosts who tend to rely on the cue cards are the athletes, singers, rappers, comedians, etc. Generally speaking, aside from a handful, the actors and actresses tend to do well because it’s their craft. They’re already accustomed to memorizing skits and lines. Learning script for a 5-10 minute scene is pretty easy for them.
Applegate is one of the most talented women in the entertainment field, she has never gotten the flowers she deserves or the roles that will let her shine...
Wouldn't have recognized her until her name was pointed out, then replaying the skit just bearly seeing her movement as Christina. Great skit for her she must have taken modern dancing...
Christina Applegate is a living legend for our generation. ❤️ Did you know that she didn't want to do Married W Children at first? The original pilot was filmed w different kids. She liked the script but she was afraid to do comedy. She was only 15. Her mother asked Ed ONeill to help her. I love this SNL clip.
I woke up with one thought in my mind “this don’t make no sense” and with Kenan’s voice - iconic. And for long 5 minutes I couldn’t remember where I had heard this sentence from.
To all those who comment that this sketch might have been written for Kristen Wiig - Ever thougth hat might not be the case and to be honest, I think the fact that Christina was once actually playing a Fosse Musical, prepared her much better for this clip and Kristen could not have done it like this, even though she´s such a perfect human being. This video is hilarious, thanks to Christina Applegate!
How many teachers have I taken that actually are just like this, love every one of them Christine you're a treasure. Get better girl keep getting better
One of my fave Married with Children episodes, is of her dancing with the janitor! I forget Christina is a professional dancer! She was great in this sketch!

Applegate is such a brilliant and talented actor.
Her high kick though 👏🏾 👏🏾
I know!!!
Giving her medical issues, I’m so happy everyone has this on film of her in her prime. Never forget. She is so amazing, always.
True.

oh wow, that's amazing, thanks for sharing
Applegate has a serious background in dance, that’s why she killed this sketch and actually was mimicking legit Fosse movements haha. She’s awesome
You mean there's actual Fosse movements? lol
I didn't know, I was in fact surprised to realise that it was Christina! Thank you!
@@NathanChisholm041 oh my yes
@@NathanChisholm041 ....look up the movie... It's excellent! 🌼
@@sharontrujillo7793 I will do thanks;-)
Christina is an amazing talent. This really is crazy funny.
As a dancer the "not counting but using random sounds" that teachers do is so relatable😂
Lori Ann Gibson used to scream "Boom Boom Kat" at us in class lol
CrazyCupCake991 I’m somewhat a dance teacher and I agree
"Paah paah pahpahpah pah pah" Yep.
well, if you've ever taken a class you get it even if it never was as preposterous as this skit
"Bam bam bambambam!"
-Dance teacher during dégagés
(They also use the accents a lot, "Out, out, ininin!")
It's rare for a host to perform such a well-developed, thoroughly thought-out character like this. With a performance as detailed as this, Christina Applegate seems like a cast member.
This is a parody but honestly actual dance class culture
That is what a Parody is.. A mock or imitation of actual events
Google, "Because that's Hip Hop", this is making fun of a lady dancing "Hip Hop"
Facts
I have 2 sisters that did a lot of dance in their teens in NYC and from what I saw the entire community is fucking INSANE, it's almost a cult
Memories
Christina Applegate was really great in this sketch, better than most celebrity guests are by far
Applegate was wonderful!! She almost broke when talking to "Charles" though. That was funny!
That's because she's a fantastic comedic actress.
Truly. In her element, as they say. Who! Knew!?
and the fact that Christina Applegate voiced Brittany The Chipettes from Alvin and the Chipmunks 😂
Shout out to her ACTUAL dancing skills. 👌 👍 😎 🕺
she actually did dance on Broadway in a Fosse musical (Sweet Charity)
@@TokyoBlue587 Yeah, but it's a shame the choreography/direction of that production wasn't the original Fosse one.

FACTS WHEN SHE DID THAT KICK💃🕺
Gold Just Gold 👈🏾Ok! That was a great high kick.
Those high kicks? Chile.
it’s amazing because this is exactly how higher up, more professional/airheaded master choreographers teach. conventions and classes really do go this fast and those noises instead of counts...ugh PTSD
😂😂😂
Air hug hun.
Show choir flashbacks...
I always wondered about those classes at convention center MasterDanceClasses
I just go to normal classes and they do this sometimes haha
This skit needs to be talked about more. Applegate, girl, you’s impressive!
The way she drags the needle across the record. Lmao
Phillip Joseph i thought I was the only one who noticed that, I was crying
It did not get the appreciation it deserved from the audience!!
Comedic genius
I noticed that too!
she's one of the few hosts who actually tries her best :)
GinoZump And succeeds 😊
Except for when she had to take part in the first Matt Foley sketch. I can't blame her for breaking during that, though. You'd have to be a literal stone to keep a straight face with Farley going crazy right next to your face, lol.
She tried. But that just was an unfunny sketch. Better writers are desperately needed on that show.
Not tru
@@MrJamberee Wow that's so crazy.. It's been a whole year and your comment generated ZERO likes. That has to mean that everything you said was complete bullshit.
I know this is from kah-konk and a half years ago, but who’s still watching in zih-zow?!
I am watching in chow-pow-pow
First laugh I've had in 2021

You win! 🥇
😂 😂 don’t make me dance, don’t make me dance!! 💃🏻 😂 😂
👏 👏 😂 thank you for that. I will sleep well tonight! 😆
The way Keenans charactered rolled in with no knowledge but an audition tomorrow is lowkey hilarious to me
She is channeling Kristen Wiig here and i'm lovin it!
Especially from the Secret Password game show skit
I was just about to write that. Applegate should be a permanent member.
hahahaha yes, she should be
I saw some wiigism too.
I honestly thought it was her
Miss Applegate's talent is so under rated. She belongs on all the major stages, TV, screen, stage, voice; she can do it all. Love her !
But she still won't be my gf 😥
I’m impressed with Christina Applegate, here. Also, Taran Killam actually looks like a dancer 🕺
oh, Taran can also do it all. He did a turn in Hamilton as King George.
I just heard about Christina's MS diagnosis. She is meeting this as she did her cancer squarely. I wanted to watch my fav skit of hers on SNL. 💜
This no make no seaaancee..😁
Vani Mittal 😂😂😂
I have an audition, and this needs to start making SEEAAANCE.
One day you too will feel the KAHDONK
The whole skit was senseless. Not funny.
I thought he said this don't make no... Not "this no make no
O"
What an amazing sketch and performance by Christina, she basically changed the original joke of the sketch, silly teacher does silly dances, and made it: silly teacher does AMAZINGLY DIFFICULT AND AWESOME DANCE MOVES.
She has that Kristen's gesture where she push her head backward. They totally should pair up. KADONK!!!!
Apparently that didnt make no seeinse.
Her scratching the record perfect! She is underrated as an actress.
That high kick!! She's awesome
It was pretty awesome, almost too much. I couldn't stop thinking about it for rest of sketch. Like "must remember to rewind to high kick..."
I rewound it immediately, like....wait...was that a legit high kick? Oh damn. It was! Go 'head, Christina!
She starred in a Broadway revival of Sweet Charity :) She's a good dancer.
She's a trained dancer.
+ifeelpretty57 Yep I saw her live on stage on that back in 2003, she was really good.
Christina is so amazing in this sketch. It really showcases her talent and skill as a comedic performer. She's in total command.
i dont know why but for the longest time, i thought the actress was Kristen Wiig until i realized it was Christina Applegate
Linda M BLIND AND DEAF MAYBE
Linda M This is a very Wiig kind of role, and she does do The Californians sketch quite similar to Kristen.
Linda M w-w-wait?! what???? that's christina applegate? wow she looks so different... and matured... now! oh how i miss kristen wigg though.
me too omg
Here the same 🤣
This is literally how my teachers talk. I did a dance where I didn’t know the counts we did “ya cha cha cak bum bum du du”
Camryn Carpenter 😂 same here!
😂😂🤣
seriously! As soon as a new teacher comes in and starts with "you'll hear it with the music" then I know! Hell no!
This made me laugh so much! 🤣😆😄
This is how I teach. Lol
That kick though!

Yes, I was just thinking rich man’s frug, it’s in there!
I have watched this one hundred times and will continue to get my fix of Jillian Chizz forever!
I feel she is channeling Kristen Wiig in this one
I first thought it was her...
Sameeee
Yeah, but that is because Kristen Wiig is pure Fosse
Yes! I’ve seen this before. But seen lots of Wiig since and i can concur.
Exactly what I thought. Even the hair.
Applegate is da bomb! She was great in Anchorman(s) and she always nails it comedically. More of her please!
GinoZump yeah she was great in friends too as Rachel's sister
Shes an old pro! all those years on 'married with children' +Bad Moms
Shes one of my fav actresses
That was one really demanding sketch and Christina totally owned it. Ka-konk and zuh-zaz to you, girl!
And, "...zibidy-boo-boo"!
Christina applegate owned this act! I love her.
That high kick, though --- oh snap --- that was a good one.
Love this.....

I can't believe it's been ka-konk and a half years since this sketch aired on tv
Can't even lie most of my modern dance classes were like this

4:53 Taran Killam's such a great dancer!
This is talent. Not once did it look like she had to use cue cards. The regular cast members can’t even do that.
No. This is ablility. She grew up on a sitcom. It's an aquired ability.
@@whynot7191 Talent can be acquired. In fact it almost always is.

Again - the cast are told to follow cue cards - they don't do it because they can't memorize line!
The lines change all the time, that’s why the cast rely on the cue cards. It’s on purpose
Applegate nailed it... She cracked me up. Loved Nasim and Killam as well
Oriolez t
Applegates kick was da bomb!!!
The Kadonk is strong here
Christina is the bestest ever
Yup loved her since "Married with Children"
Her performance reminds me of some Kristen Wigs characters :)
i thought it was for a min ha
Tauras D hell yeah. its like she is trying to do kirsten's impression.
Christina applegate
"Don't make me sing"
Liza Minnelli tries to turn off a lamp
She nailed Bob fosse 100 %. This is funny because it's SNL. Bob fosse is no joke he changed dance permanently like the bebop musicians who changed jazz.
wow CHristina performance is great in here

What jojo said, but also sometimes huge changes are made right before airtime if something did poorly during dress rehearsal
I bet soap opera stars would kill it.
I've heard Betty White memorized her lines when she was on because it was easier than reading the cue cards.
This makes it so much more beautiful. I am not creeped out.
"He loved me with every bit of his body, except for his dong." DEAD! 😂
DCCOMICS SCENES lol Keanan- “why would you tell that story?”

@@Reiki-Zen Lots of things are wrong with Jim Carrey. :)
That high kick @3:14 AMAZING😍😍😍
Her sense of comedic timing is fantastic. She’s funny enough to be a cast member.
funnier than most of the cast
@@whichri79 I think the cast starts out funny, but get more and more burned out as time goes by. They work on very little sleep.
“SEE-AWNCE”😂
Saw your comment Right when the video got there lololol
Superb dance by Christina here!!
Let's give a quick shout out to Christina Applegate
Lmao.... Hannibal 😂
Absolutely ka-chong!
Kenan's "that don't make no sense" is the probably the SNL line that I quote the most and it's so obscure that nobody gets it
I would think that you were quoting Pete from “Oh Brother Where Art Thou”
Christina was awesome in this scketch. Best I've seen by far.
“Just find it ,and play with it”🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣❣️
My favorite line!!!
Applegate is such an under-appreciated actor.
"Why did you tell that story? It's a bad reflection on you. That don't make no sense." 🤣
One of the best host performances ever.
This hits HARD, man. I remember trying to learn Fosse from a ballet background with a teacher who was a lot like this personality-wise... man.
Christina Applegate is amazing!
This may be one of the most underrated sketches ever. So good.
She is brilliant! One of the most underrated actresses ever.
Christina.. I am so impressed. You showed that you were much more than an actress. Fabulous. You had me laughing with every beat. Thank you.
Applegate is one of the most talented women in the entertainment field, she has never gotten the flowers she deserves or the roles that will let her shine...
Go watch Dead To Me
Her voice reminds me of Kristin Wiig’s when she portrayed Liza Minelli making Fosse-like moves in another great SNL sketch! Talent abounding!
Love Christina Applegate’s comedic timing!
That high kick! You go Christina!!!
Great sketch! I love Christina Applegate! She is so talented!
it took me a while to realize this is christina applegate
really. ..!
Christina looks so different here
Wouldn't have recognized her until her name was pointed out, then replaying the skit just bearly seeing her movement as Christina.
Great skit for her she must have taken modern dancing...
spunkyfunkygal545 me too
Me too!!
I never get tired of watching this sketch! Applegate is such a pro!
Christina Applegate is fine like a wine.
I mean shes not that old. What, maybe zazow to mid-zazows at the most?
Ummmmmm.....I don’t know about that. More like an old prune juice.
I related wayyy too much to Bobby trying to do a Fosse dance move lol, and in the end her teaching method worked, love Christina 💖

I thought Christina Applegate was Kristen Wiig when she first came in. I can't be alone here.
Also, very impressive cue-card-less performance by her.
Dammit, people! Do you not know LIZA MINNELLI? This is Liza! Both of them are doing Liza.
SNL will test the range of acting of some actors. Applegate brought it.
…and then she served it!
"Zibbity boo boo." Dead. No doubt, Christina Applegate gots comedic skills.
Kadinko kawaw and zibidy zoom zoom
And donkah ,donkah?
Did you just count to eight and three quarters?!?
Thank you for clarifying
Thank goodness for the English translation!
Love you Ms. Applegate! You’re in my thoughts and sending you good vibes. ♥️
They should give Emmy to Applegate for this single sketch. Amazing, can't stop laughing. She is so funny.
I woke up with one thought in my mind “this don’t make no sense” and with Kenan’s voice - iconic. And for long 5 minutes I couldn’t remember where I had heard this sentence from.
