The delivery of "Edith Puthie" is perfection.

[u/Hestiansun]

This was one of the stupidest SNL sketches in years, but I laughed my ass off.

Sometimes lowbrow humor executed well is as good as high brow humor.

It also seems they figured out the best to use Pete Davidson in live sketches is places where his job is to break.

These “disaster at the name change office” sketches are so stupid and I love them.

[u/scottsmith7]

Reminds me of Colonel Angus sketch of years ago

I always like these sketches. Just simple juvenile humor done seriously.

[u/throwinitallawai]

It’s amazing how far prank call humor can go. First Moe’s Tavern, now SNL.

I kinda didn’t care for this, but I’ll admit it’s partly because I have a headache. Dumb stuff still has its place in funny.

Be Edith Puthie in the world full of Mike Rodicks
