Yeah, I was waiting for him to pop up and talk about Flavortown or something. Guy was still sort of new at this time, Phelps was breaking records in the Olympics back in like 2006 or around that time.
As a Californian, I wrote this comment in the parking lot that the 405 South towards Santa Monica, which I got to by taking the 10 to the 210 to the 101
negative . i am from live in dc..never been to cali..and i am obsessed with the directions they give... i have looked up plenty to see if they lead where they say they do lol
Omg who mentions the 118 freeway, i can hear it from my backyard. It is true, you have to figure your route with traffic. After 2:30 does matter you are in for mega traffic.
**SNL Skit: "Territorial Men: The Hot Spots"** *Setting: The same suburban neighborhood. Three male friends-**Dave**, **Mike**, and **Steve**-are hanging out, casually marking their territory while chatting about their day. Meanwhile, the women in the neighborhood react positively, almost flirtatiously, to certain men’s "marks."* --- **Dave:** (Stretching) Man, long week at work. I’ve been looking forward to just relaxing today. **Mike:** (Nods) Same here. Oh, hang on. (Walks over to a tree, lifts his leg, and starts “marking” it casually while continuing the conversation.) Anyway, Dave, how’s the new project going? **Dave:** (Unfazed) Pretty good. Gonna wrap it up next week. (Suddenly pauses, sniffs the air dramatically.) Hold on a sec. (Walks over to a fire hydrant and marks it, then resumes chatting.) So yeah, I’m ready for a chill weekend. (As this happens, **Amy** and **Lindsay** walk by, noticing Mike and Dave marking the tree and hydrant. Amy’s eyes widen, and she nudges Lindsay.) **Amy:** (Whispering, intrigued) Did you see that? Mike just marked the tree by my house. That’s like… prime territory. **Lindsay:** (Smirking) Oh, I know. He’s got great taste. Plus, that spot near the hydrant? Total power move. **Amy:** (Swooning) He *always* marks the best spots. (They continue walking, sneaking glances back at Mike, who’s oblivious. **Karen** joins them, noticing the situation.) **Karen:** (Grinning) Oh, look at Steve. He just marked that lamppost by my place last week. I mean, honestly, he’s probably the best marker on the block. **Lindsay:** (Nods) Yeah, it’s all about confidence. And precision. Steve’s really got it down. **Karen:** (Giggles) You know what they say… a man who marks well, knows what he’s doing. (Steve, overhearing bits of this, smiles smugly as he leans against the lamppost, lifting his leg to mark it again while casually talking to his friends.) **Steve:** (Glancing over his shoulder) You hear that, guys? The ladies love a well-marked lamppost. (Winks at them.) **Mike:** (Chuckles) Yeah, but I think I’ve got them beat with that big oak tree near the park. (Lifts his leg and marks another spot, all while continuing the conversation.) So, what are you guys doing for dinner later? (**Jessica**, a new neighbor, walks by and immediately perks up when she sees Mike marking the tree.) **Jessica:** (Excitedly) Oh my god, Mike just marked that oak tree near the park! That’s, like, the best tree in the whole neighborhood. **Amy:** (Nods) I know, right? It’s so bold. I mean, no one else would even *dare*. **Jessica:** (Dreamily) He’s such an alpha when it comes to marking. I wonder if he’s single? (Meanwhile, **Karen** is checking out Steve’s latest territory claim on the lamppost.) **Karen:** (Flirtatiously) Steve, you really know how to mark a lamppost. It’s… very impressive. **Steve:** (Casually) Oh, you know, just doing what I do. Gotta keep things organized. (Winks.) (He marks the lamppost again, while **Lindsay** and **Amy** swoon.) **Lindsay:** (Sighing) If only all men were as good at marking as Mike and Steve. **Amy:** (Nods) Yeah, it’s like… a real sign of commitment. You can tell they take care of their spaces. --- *Back at the group, the guys are casually discussing their weekend plans.* **Dave:** (Nonchalant) So, thinking of hitting the game later. You guys in? **Mike:** (Lifting his leg to mark another spot, not missing a beat) Yeah, sounds good. Maybe grab a beer after? **Steve:** (Also marking the same spot) For sure. Gotta get in a good workout first though. I’ve been slacking on marking all week. (As they talk, **Karen** leans over to **Jessica**.) **Karen:** (Whispering) Did you see Dave just double-mark with Steve? That’s like… next-level territory management. **Jessica:** (Eyes wide) I know! I mean, they make it look so easy, but there’s definitely an art to it. **Lindsay:** (Laughing) I always say, it’s not just *where* they mark, it’s *how* they do it. Mike’s got that smooth, confident approach. **Amy:** (Grinning) Oh, absolutely. I mean, look at the way he handles that fence over there. (**Mike** casually walks over to a nearby fence, lifts his leg, and marks it. **Jessica** watches in awe.) **Jessica:** (Softly) He’s just so… territorial. I love it. --- *The women continue whispering and reacting positively to every mark the men make, as if each spot is more desirable than the last. Meanwhile, the guys keep chatting, totally unaware of the effect they’re having.* **Mike:** (Casually marking a tree while chatting) Yeah, we should definitely hit the new bar later. I’ve heard good things. **Steve:** (Also marking a different part of the tree) Sounds good to me. You guys catch the game last night? **Dave:** (Lifting his leg to mark a mailbox) Yeah, it was a good one. Close game. (**Amy**, **Karen**, and **Jessica** watch from a distance, giggling and nodding approvingly.) **Amy:** (Sighing) It’s just so… primal, you know? **Karen:** (Smiling) Yeah. And yet, somehow… really attractive. **Jessica:** (Swooning) I mean, there’s just something about a guy who knows how to claim his space. --- **End Scene.** --- **SNL Jingle Plays: "Territorial Men: Sometimes, It’s All About the Mark."**
Anyone else notice Guy Firere next to Shatner during Mike Phelps open monologue??
I thought for sure he was going to be next to offer some endorsement deal lol
Yeah, I was waiting for him to pop up and talk about Flavortown or something. Guy was still sort of new at this time, Phelps was breaking records in the Olympics back in like 2006 or around that time.
@@andrewnord7908 yeah, the same
I was gonna say that! And why wasn't he in the skit???😂
@@janeentumbao8690Probably ran out of time
Look! It's Usain Bolt Targaryen 1st of his name, runner of tracks and winner of medals! 🇯🇲
Breaker of banners
Love this😂
😂
Nooooo! He is a Californian!
As a Californian, I wrote this comment in the parking lot that the 405 South towards Santa Monica, which I got to by taking the 10 to the 210 to the 101
Jason Sudekis is the best and Bill Hader yelling "Jee-fff!"
SNL not being on the air during an Election is criminal, I don’t care if the comedy is cringe I want to see it so I can laugh
Dw they r just on break! They should b back late August to early September!
💯 Get your assess back on tv so my life can be slightly better 😁
Y’all crazy the political sketches are the worst ones they do and are completely forced and absolutely a big reason why the show has fallen off.
@ItsAlexlive nah, people are just too sensitive around election time. it gets better in retrospect
It wasn't on during the Coronation either.
What missed opportunities!!
The freeway references in the Californians are something only Californians can truly appreciate. Hilarious😂
negative . i am from live in dc..never been to cali..and i am obsessed with the directions they give... i have looked up plenty to see if they lead where they say they do lol
maybe I can't "truly" appreciate them, but I sure do appreciate them.
So relatable 😂 except to the rest of the World--- sad for them😂
When I was in the Army, a LARGE number of my friends were Californian, and they talked like this abit lol
It never gets old😂😂😂
Such a wonderful surprise getting a SNL video. The Californians are old school hilarious too 🩷🎉
For a Jamaican native he nailed the valley accent 😅 I'm from the south of USA and can't even do it
I wasn't expecting Californians on this😍! Best soap ever🤩
"It's a book'" ... omg dying!
I thought the mom bit for Phelps was very wholesome 😊
Amy poehler has great timing
Gonna start telling people that I'm on the Michael Phelps diet
Good Idea 😂
'eyyyyyyyy 😂
Is that Guy Fieri to the left of Will Shatner?!
100%
Yes
Didn't see anyone mention it so you win!
Were we supposed to pretend he wasn’t there
Yea, and he looks toasted!
Clicked so fast when I saw Usain Bolt 🇯🇲 🇯🇲 🇯🇲 😊
Bet it wasn't as fast as Usain, though. 😉
same
@@kareninalabamaLol! Cool!
I LOVE The Californian's SO hilarious 😂 😃 😄 😁 🤣 😸 😂
Christina Applegate acc smashes it as a Kristen Wiig replacement
I love Taran's character @ 6:30: "It's not me." Duhhhhh LOLOL.
The Lebron clip got me laughing so hard
Ďont get bananas😂😂 The Californians ROCK!!
Omg who mentions the 118 freeway, i can hear it from my backyard. It is true, you have to figure your route with traffic. After 2:30 does matter you are in for mega traffic.
Lebron vs Jeff 😭💀
9:30 guy fieri just existing 💀💀💀
Nobody can grind a joke into the ground like SNL. That Californians bit goes on forever
The Californians skit was golden….. the only thing missing was the word like between almost every other word😂🙄🤦🏽♂️
The positivity in these comments is contagious. Blessings to everyone.
So glad the Californians came back. Love this skit.
Usain Bolt sounds German 😂😂😂
THAT’S A BOOK!!! Perfect delivery
Shatner...OMG that guy still cracks me up. "Integrity!" LOL
The specifications they give when they describe an address is crazy funny 😂😂😂 I’m not from the US but I know that much about Californians ! 😂😂😂
The world needs more people like you. Thank you for your kind words!
The personality shines through and keeps viewers coming back.
You all have filled my heart with joy. Thank you for your kind words!
Can SNL do a Aunt Linda for the Aussie Break dancer Raygun !? I would freaking roll over and die ! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The world needs more people like you. Thank you for your kindness!
One of my favorites. Love Christine Applegate. ❤
8:42 damn Guy Fieri
Haha I wonder if he did any skits for that show
ran to the comments the moment i saw him haha
Another masterpiece, but just for laughing
This was hilarious!!😂
BRING BACK CALIFORNIANS!!!!!! BEST SNL SKITS
Pete Davidson carried the whole court scetch so good that I even forgot Rhonda Rowsey was the host of that episode
omg yes she was so forgettable
Guy fierrererah toltady rocked that everything boots the house down siaters
As a native Californian, I love seeing these stereotypes portrayed!!! [lotsa accuracy] 🙂
Valuable insights are always provided. Thank you!
There's a perfect balance between education and entertainment.
Usain Bolt is the best part of The Californians, which may not make sense to non- Californian residents.
Everything is always on point. Can't get enough!
Jason with the actual high school stats.
"What's This" ITS A BOOK!!!!
Nice shout-out to Simi Valley ( my bro lives there 👍)
The passion shines through in every video. It's truly inspiring.
was that GUY FIERI behind SHATNER?
Yep
Bout to comment the same thing even Flavor town came out for Mike LOL😂
Just get on the 405 and just drive on it till you can’t take it anymore. I get that joke all too well because of how awful it can be.
Complex topics are broken down so easily. Everything is made so understandable.
Can’t wait for season 50 🤩
As someone from California.....🎉
My man !😂
Christina Applegate was so funny in the Californians and looked amazing. That outfit totally fit her!
There should be a revisit of the Californians with Pedro Pascal in it
😂😂😂😂
8:43 WTF is Guy Fieri doing just hanging out next to William Shatner? 🤣🤣🤣💯💯💯💯💯
Christina Applegate on The Californians is perfect. 😂 I so love her in comedy. Hope she's doing better today❤ I miss her in film
"We should get Dwyane Wade anyway at least he's got a ring!" LOVE IT!!!!
Can't believe how good Applegate still looks
But you do know… This was from years ago.
Did anyone else notice the small detail at 5:23? It’s so cool!
No I tried, what do you see?
The mastery of the craft is clear. Keep inspiring us with amazing work!
9:09 that’s guy fiery😂
My favorite SNL show!!!! Is it coming back? Or is this repeat. Where is Stuart?
These videos are truly inspiring!
All I want is a damn whole weekend with Janet Johnson Luna And Kara Torkelson ❤ ! Love SNL
Who in 2007 would've thought that LeBron James would still be averaging 22/8/9 in the NBA SEVENTEEN YEARS after he shot this skit??
This will always be one of my favorites... but one thing is killing me.. i need to know how the mirror got into the mix 😂
This is my favorite Fred Armisen character - hilarious!!
Have you seen Portlandia😂❤
👏👏👏 "my man"
THIS WAS ASSAULT ON CALIFORNIANS! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣405 where time stands still! 😂

Lebron catching that book is on point!
My Man 😁
Love the show it funny and inspired
0:57 I ❤ CHRISTINA APPLEGATE
6:10 Usain Bolt. Thank me later
literally.. 6 minutes of the biggest trashcan shit skit before the title is even accurate
I'mma thank you now
Damn.....LeBron got mad as hell 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
At 16 no matter what the kid says its sexual assault.
it's crazy how they read the script when they look straight and away from the camera. every episode is like this
I fukin hate that I have no idea where any of those roads are in California lol
This is just perfect.
Kiitos paljon videosta! 🇫🇮
6:40 2 days after Phelps monologue, a few blocks away, Lehman Brothers declares Bankruptcy.
Need you guys to do an episode on Raygun from Australia breakdancing!
I’m in awe of this video.
I lived in LA for only 3 months in 1999 and this is definitely 100% accurate 😅
oooo i remember those days lmaooo @ 12:23
OMG! “lefty from Kansas” This is canon to Ted Lasso. Ted Lasso played against LeBron!!!
Can we all agree that the transitions are smooth and seamless?
Hey is anyone listening... Tom Arnold should play tim walz
My man 😅
Trainwreck prequel lol
