Hold up, you was in Yo Gabba Gabba?
Unbelievable. I adore this sketch. And the fact that they got Quest, who seems like the most gentle celebrity in the world, to pretend to smack Pete and Chalamet is so satisfying.
Both Pete and Timothee gave this 100% effort, which is always a wonderful thing to see.
Yeah yeah I feel that....but what about that yeet?
This was a top 5 sketch for me this season
SKRRRRRT SKRRRRRT!
This sketch really brought that thang up in your face ... you're not gonna yeet?
