It's almost better that Jenje was kept hidden from us till now, as Will Forte's beard makes her that much grosser. Love the grossness. Huge 'ews' all around.
During the entire sketch I was trying to figure out if Will Forte was wearing a bald cap or not. I wouldn't put it past him to shave his head just for this. Lol
Will forte may be the greatest, sickest, concept art comedian ever to be on snl. The wild west astronaut sketch with Blake Lively was a masterpiece. You will never be an astronaut.
Easily the dumbest awesomest thing I've ever seen. Seeing Jason and Will back at it really made this. Thank you for coming up with Second Chance Theater!
Will and Jason were great in this. I wish Will would host so we'd get something like this on the show. Vanessa was a sport to pop in for such a pointless role given that she wasn't even on the show when Will was (they were a few months apart).
I feel like this didn't make it through the first time because for some inexplicable reason people don't like seeing a colonial man with a beard on another mans lap getting it on. When will our society accept this love story of star crossed lovers!!!!
This makes no sense. The other couple wanted to set them up, so why do they leave in disgust? We even know that they're a freaky couple who likes messed up stuff.
I'm guessing that''s why this is a "2nd chance" sketch. If the, er, kinks had been worked out, it wouldn't have felt forced, just funny. But it's great that Seth hosts this and SNL signs off on it. It has a charm, for one, simply for the story behind it, but it's also inspiration for creatives who feel they're not hitting the head of the nail yet -- nobody does it perfectly, all the time.
I said DONT NORMALLY meaning you are not going to always see them and Cecily Stong is not a head writer she is just a cast member, neither was Jimmy Fallon who i love he was never a writter for SNL Higgens & Smigal wrote most of his best sketches
Brilliant idea for a segment; resurrect cut sketches and have past and present SNL cast members act them out. Awesome. Btw Jennjamin Franklin is comedy gold!
Bayer and Armisen angrily leaving doesn’t make any sense in the world of the sketch. They set them up and it went well, they knew both these people beforehand.
MYYYGGGGGGGGGGGood I am on train and I can't stop laughing. Will forte's expressions and comic timongs...in this skit they were all pretty good but he never broke while the others did and I don't know how he does It. legend
This is one of the most disturbing and unsettling things to ever be filmed and released to the public.....I love it
Quintessential Forte
Forte really helps bridge the gap between entertainment and vomit in your mouth.
coin420 Do hydroponics & grow lights work well together?
it sure is
Juden
I feel like this was written solely to freak out the other cast members and i'm alright with that.
You KNOW it's awkward and uncomfortable if Fred Armisen is the straight man..
That made me laugh Lmaoo
FR! 😂 😂 😂
I knew Jason and Will were going to kiss the second they announced that Jason was there.
In high school, I was a band geek with a severe social anxiety disorder and yet, I still never experienced anything this awkward.
Goddamn, the chemistry between Sudeikis & “Jenjamin” is actually 🔥
After Will speaking about this character so passionately in his interview, I'm happy he got to play it haha.
Will Forte's got a sick mind.
But thats what makes his sketches hilarious 😂
He dances on the precipice of the abyss with the fury of an indigenous stallion. 🐎
like all the geniuses
will forte sounds like moaning myrtle from harry potter
Hahahahahahahahahahaha
oh my God it's true!
Jennjamin Franklin: Will Forte's rejected SNL sketch featuring Jason Sudeikis, Fred Armisen, and Vanessa Bayer!
Yes! Keep these up! There must be plenty of cut sketches that could be put on!
Jason Sudeikis was hilarious in this sketch.
It's almost better that Jenje was kept hidden from us till now, as Will Forte's beard makes her that much grosser. Love the grossness. Huge 'ews' all around.
Debbie Elicksen VERY funny! He's the best. He managed to keep straight face whole sketch, too.
Oh i know. Jason is very professional. I love him!
Made me the right amount of uncomfortable that every Snl sketch should. Loved it.
This would actually be perfect for Kids in the Hall.
only thing missing was Bill Hader watching from another table with a pervy smile.
why is jason so sweet with will oh my god
Jason is such a versatile actor
I can see why this wasn't put on air.
I don't see what was wrong with it
They showed this on Canadian TV...
i don't see why. this Is pure gold.
During the entire sketch I was trying to figure out if Will Forte was wearing a bald cap or not. I wouldn't put it past him to shave his head just for this. Lol
Is Jasons ex "Georga" at the start a reference to George Washington hahaha?
Thanks
I'm not sure who was creepier in this: Forte or Sudeikis!
@a p lol
I can see why this was cut haha but still funny just extremely disturbing
I can't believe this has been around for 10 years and I'm just seeing it now.
This is so horrific, I need more
Will forte may be the greatest, sickest, concept art comedian ever to be on snl. The wild west astronaut sketch with Blake Lively was a masterpiece. You will never be an astronaut.
not maybe. he Is.
Oh yes, Potato Chip is a masterpiece.
sudeikis has no business looking this hot in this sketch
Jenjamin looks like Robin Williams if he was a high school music teacher
He does! Oh Lord.
I really missed weird, creepy sketches like these from Forte. Oh, man. That was so creepy but I died laughing. MORE PLEASE!
I love how Jason just put his pursed lips into Will's mouth.
No 🤢😂🤣
Will open them too much!😂
I like everything about this. It's hilarious when they just get straight up weird!
Easily the dumbest awesomest thing I've ever seen. Seeing Jason and Will back at it really made this. Thank you for coming up with Second Chance Theater!
Jason Sudeikis hair game is on point!
richgarc84 the beard really seals the deal as a cherry on top
I LOVE this! Hope Seth has more second-chancers. Will and Fred are gold!
but...Fred has bad timing ...
Sooo glad I didn't see this before I went to bed.
I'm so sad I saw this before going to bed o.O
I did and now I haven't slept in a week
WHAT am I watching? And why do I like it SO MUCH?!
What in the world is this amazing piece of art!?
This is so weird and awesome and unsettling and I can't not watch it
I've never been so uncomfortable and laughed so hard at the same time
That sketch would have killed on SNL. Will was right!
Will and Jason were great in this. I wish Will would host so we'd get something like this on the show. Vanessa was a sport to pop in for such a pointless role given that she wasn't even on the show when Will was (they were a few months apart).
Jason sudeikis is literally the best actor ever
Thank you Seth for making this possible!
I dont wanna watch, yet I cant look away :S
Anyone saying this is awkward clearly hasn't seen "the new girlfriend" sketch on snl😂
I feel like this didn't make it through the first time because for some inexplicable reason people don't like seeing a colonial man with a beard on another mans lap getting it on. When will our society accept this love story of star crossed lovers!!!!
Mike J Seth mentioned that this would be weird with his beard and now I see why. Guess Forte didn't have a beard during the time he was on SNL.
+thebunny he did, I think the guys stay clean shaven for stuff like playing women and heavy makeup.
+thebunny I mean didn't haha
Jenjamin was a flat chested woman!
Not gonna lie, my weird crush on Will Forte just went up a notch.
i can see why this never made it past the table read at snl.
That voice is just cracking me up so bad. Jesus.
This makes no sense. The other couple wanted to set them up, so why do they leave in disgust? We even know that they're a freaky couple who likes messed up stuff.
They're trying to be respectable. At least until the kids graduate.
I guess their eyes were too big for their stomachs
I'm guessing that''s why this is a "2nd chance" sketch. If the, er, kinks had been worked out, it wouldn't have felt forced, just funny. But it's great that Seth hosts this and SNL signs off on it.

If stuff this funny was on SNL, I might start watching it. This is so unique and out there, and man is it funny!
that was awkward and funny, I love Will Forte!
Will Forte is such a boss!
Seth did more SNL-like things in this than he did in his last few years at SNL.
He was a head writer they dont normally do anything besides Update and oversee the sketches
Well that's false
Let's not forget Boston Powers.
I said DONT NORMALLY meaning you are not going to always see them and Cecily Stong is not a head writer she is just a cast member, neither was Jimmy Fallon who i love he was never a writter for SNL Higgens & Smigal wrote most of his best sketches
this has nothing to do with my original comment all i really said was Seth focuses on writing more than being on screen because he likes writing more
I dont know how they could keep it together
This makes me laugh every frickin time 😂😂😂
Forte’s willingness to do anything and Sudekis’ pseudo-high school jock personality are fucking magical.
Thumbs up on this segment! Can't wait for more!
“I’m a very bad parallel parker” had me dying 😂
Holy god... what did i just watch? 5 stars
I have never laughed so hard at anything so bizarre.
Will Forte has an interesting brain
i really hope they do more of these
So, Sudeikis can convincingly smolder at LITERALLY anyone playing opposite him, then? Got it! Coolcoolcoolcoolcoolcool no doubt
Can't believe I just ran across this, freakin HILARIOUS 😂😂😂
was looking at the comments before i watched this, and i was like it 'cant be _that_ bad'. *but oh it was. It so was*
Props to the extras at the other table for not cracking.
Thank you so much, this was amazing :D
Has there ever been a humanbeing as talented as Will Forte? No the answer is no
agree
Amazing 👏 I'm so jealous of Will. I love you Jason 💜
Will Forte is Amazing! Nailed it! Jason was perfect!
Brilliant idea for a segment; resurrect cut sketches and have past and present SNL cast members act them out. Awesome. Btw Jennjamin Franklin is comedy gold!
Hilarious, which makes me question my sense of morality at 63 😂 forgot Sudekis could sing!
This sketch still lives rent free in my mind many years later 😂😂
Watched this like 30 times, it's so good
Only for a second, but first time I’ve ever seen Jason break.
I can't unsee any of that.
Will Forte is the cutest!
Anything involving my hero Jason Sudeikis I am in!
THIS IS MAJESTIC!
I'm guessing "13" is insanely jealous. Seriously, thanks for continuing to elicit involuntary laughs from the rest of us. Sorely needed.
“And if lightning strikes, he’ll tie a key to the end of it”
“Oh, his kite?”
“No honey, not his kite.”
I am obsessed with this. Will is fucking hilarious.
Who’s here from “You made it weird”?
This one is funnier than most of the skits that go on air
this is such a good idea hahahah omg
I love Jason so much
I feel like this would air on SNL today lol this was hilarious
Bayer and Armisen angrily leaving doesn’t make any sense in the world of the sketch. They set them up and it went well, they knew both these people beforehand.
Those extras on the right keeping it going even after the scene ends.
MYYYGGGGGGGGGGGood I am on train and I can't stop laughing. Will forte's expressions and comic timongs...in this skit they were all pretty good but he never broke while the others did and I don't know how he does It. legend
I'm freaking creeped out. That voice...
Forte is one of the funniest people to have ever lived.
totally agree
My life goal is to find someone who only knows Jason from Ted Lasso, and to show this to them
5:35 wow, Fred as a straight man, a rare sight 😂 Vanessa, too, but with Fred it really fried my brain circuits 🥴
This is so messed up that it's great.
Second Chance Theatre is fantastic because it's SNL sketches by the best SNL cast.This sketch alone is better than anything they've done in 5+ years.
I mean, what even. This is so perf.
Yep, there's a reason this got cut from SNL.
Am I the only one still laughing at the Tina & Jeff reference?
So I guess someone just misheard "It's all about the Benjamin" as "It's all about the Jenjamin" and now this sketch exists? Incredible.
I saw this just for Fred. I love Fred!!
This is better than anything on SNL
This was so uncomfortable to watch, but awkwardly funny as well :)...Jason did a great job with his lines.
will did it
I love the SNL of five years ago! This sketch was funny but mostly weird. Hahahaha.
This aired on t.v. tonight. I laughed laughed laughed!
