-My first guest is an Emmy-nominated actor and Emmy-winning director for his fantastic work on the critically acclaim television series "Ozark." This weekend he is hosting "Saturday Night Live" with musical guest Morgan Wallen. I'm thrilled that he can actually be here in the studio tonight. Please welcome, Jason Bateman! -♪ This is Jason Bateman ♪ ♪ This is Jason Bateman ♪ ♪ This is Jason "Silver Spoons" ♪ "It's Your Move," "Arrested Development" Bateman ♪ ♪ This is Jason Bateman ♪ ♪ This is Jason Bateman ♪ ♪ This is Jason "Silver Spoons," ♪ It's Your Move" ♪ -Look at that, yeah. This is it. This is -- -Pretty pathetic. -This is -- [ Laughs ] This is the best we can -- Jason, this is the best we can do. We just -- -You goose all the applause later, right, in post? -No, this is it. -This is it? -That is totally it, yeah. I'm so happy you're here. You look fantastic. -I wore my baby cord burgundy for you today because we're in studio. -Thank you. It is a gorgeous suit. -If it was Zoom, it would be my PJs. -Yeah, that's right. Have you been this dressed up in a while? -No, and this has got to be back in about a half hour, so -- [ Laughter ] -I understand. Jason, you're hosting "Saturday Night Live" again. You hosted -- you hosted -- -15 years ago. -Is that right? -Yeah, it feels like longer because I loved it so much and wanted to do it every day afterwards. As you know, it's such an amazing -- cords do not move on this couch. [ Laughter ] -There's no slide. There's no slide -- -My entire underwear is inside me right now. [ Laughter ] I'll work five-person audience. [ Laughter and applause ] I'll get it. -This is better -- [ Cheering ] This is better than my monologue. This is unbelievable. -It's so casual. I saw you on the stool. I'm like, I said to the guy in the dressing room, "When do you guys start?" [ Laughter ] He said, "No, we're doing it now." I go, "He's sitting on a stool." -Yeah, it's a cool medium now. -It's so casual. -It's just casual. You're like, "Yeah, we're just hanging out like buddies, talking. -Jimmy's just -- he's just like a nice old pair of shoes, isn't he? -[ Laughs ] I'll take that. I love that, man. I have to talk "Ozark" because I haven't talk to you since you started "Ozark," which is bizarre. -Do you have notes? We're locked, you know. [ Laughter ] The stuff you've seen we can't change. -Okay, yeah, no, my only note is that -- it's a thank-you note to say thank you for -- That's one of the best things I've ever seen. -Oh, man, thank you. You are phenomenal in this show, dude. [ Applause ] Unbelievable. -You're goosing that. -No, we don't. We're not goosing. -You'll goose that. You will goose that. -Not gonna goose that. [ Cheers and applause ] -There it is. -That's the one you wanted. ♪♪ And now you've got a band thing. Oh, my God. Hey, all right. Questlove has seen everything. You've seen all the episodes and everything. -Absolutely. -Really? -Yeah. -I'm on season -- -Thank you. -...season two, episode three. But let me -- no, no, Jason, let me tell you why. Let me tell you why. I don't -- -You're busy. -No. I don't want it to end. I don't want to keep -- because I know it's going to end. -I'll buy that. -It's like when you read a good book. When I was reading Steve Martin's book, "Born Standing Up," I was so mad that it was going to come to an end, I'm like, ah! I just want to keep reading this. It is so good. You are phenomenal. Everybody -- -Really, really good, good group of people. And the writers, I don't know how they keep escalating the danger without killing us or putting us in jail. I mean, we make as many mistakes as you possibly can without getting killed or incarcerated. -Yeah. -And we've got more in store for this -- -Also you're directing, too, and just -- you're crushing -- Dude, you're -- do you enjoy that part? -I love it, yeah. -...another job for you? I mean, no. I mean, I guess there's a part of me that's sort of masochistic, you know. I like the acting. But it's so comfortable for me that I'm able to observe -- like, I'm keenly aware that like, if that camera had to move right, now I'd probably wait to finish my answer until it's settled. I'm always looking to, like, help the crew. Because as a little kid, the crew members would always be like, "Buddy, you got help me out. I got to get the boom over there. Can you just hold your line?" I'm like, "Sure, sir." So I'm a real people pleaser when it comes to the work on the set, so I like to, you know, facilitate shots and stuff that work. So I like the acting, but I like to pile on with the other stuff and make the crew's day short or the actor's day short. -Yeah. Just stays fun and stays exciting, electric. -Yeah, I love it a bunch. But this next year -- we're two weeks into shooting. It's going to be the last year, but we're going to do 14 instead of 10 episodes, and we're going to split them up in two, so it will be seven and seven. So it will really be like season four and season five, but they're shorter. I don't -- -Then it's all over. -We do land the plane in a very satisfactory way, but... -You're happy with it? -Yeah. -What do you think it is about -- because I have a theory, why people like Marty. Why they like your character. -He has got incredible hair. [ Laughter ] -He really is a good-looking dude, yeah. -I say that to you because look at you. -Look at you. Thank you. -Right? -I got this from Amazon last week. -If we just agitate it a little bit up top. -A little messed -- but still under control a little bit. -I can see your lace, though, is coming up just a little bit. No, he's us. I mean, hopefully, you know? He's, you know, a middle-aged dude trying to get it -- get on with it with his kids and his wife and keep them alive and be a provider. And then he -- you know, and he's probably a little bit dumber than he thinks he is, so he backs into some bad decisions, but he thinks they're good decisions. And then he's got to kind of pay the price for cutting corners and stuff like that. -I think it's also -- it's because I think he's honest. He's honest, even with the -- saying the awful truth. I mean, like, "All right, you really want to know what happens? How the sausage is made? This goes that, that and that and this and that, that's it." And you go, I can't believe you just said that. -The money laundering stuff? -Yeah, all that stuff. -Yeah, we try not to get the audience into the weeds too much with that, because it's hard to -- I think -- the only thing I've been able to absorb about money laundering in three years is that you need fake receipts. If you can get fake receipts -- Guys, we can all just -- we can all retire tomorrow. -Just, tips. There you go. Fake receipts. -Fake receipts. That's it. -Just some tips from Jason Bateman. That's it. Earlier this week we had Nick Kroll on the show and we played a game called "Guess the Impression." -That is a funny man. -He's a funny dude. So we just had names come up. We did not practice the impression. And then I got -- your name came up, and so I had to think of, how do I do an impression of you? -Oh, no. This is hurtful. This is going to be hurtful. -No, it's fun. It's all -- -Impressions are not complimentary, Jimmy. -Yes. -No, they're not. -It's an homage, not an impression. -An homage. It's a beautiful pronunciation. -Thank you. -Damn it. Where are you from? [ Laughter ] Are you from Montreal? -I'm from Montreal, yeah. I'm not even from France, it's from Montreal. From -- yeah. I want to show the impression, and just -- I don't even know why I want to show the impression. -You did me? -I think I did you. I think I did a decent impression of you. I don't know. Quest, did you see it? -I did not see it. -You did not see it. Yeah, we'll see it when we come back. More with Jason Bateman when we come back. We're gonna see it, but -- it's close, the impression.
