perfectly as he reacts to all the perceived perks of his new look he even spends time at a bank that comes with a comical switch and hilarious payoff just take what you want Mr White pay us back any time or don't we don't care watching this decades later viewers will wish that the comedian had done even more mockumentary segments for the show it's both funny and Timeless in its satirical look at

on the Brett Kavanaugh hearings Matt Damon makes a surprise Cameo as the prospective judge and he completely sells the role willing to yell and cry the actor turns this into a roller coaster ride of hilarity just look at look at my calendar and you're going to see that every night I was lifting weights with PJ and squee the character references his history of drinking like a frat boy with no filter with an impressive Supporting Cast the sketch gets even funnier as a female prosecutor provides questions kavanagh's constant references to his friends and beer keep the tension high and laughs

and altering their voice these three comedians bring laughs with their constant gossip and Loud personalities there's also Farley delivering one of the best lines of his SNL career I thought you were um trying to lose weight lay off me I'm starving the latter performer keeps everybody on their toes almost breaking cast members like Rob Schneider through it all this sketch brings out the best of

then went for a ride number 94 Natalie wraps so Natalie what's a day in the life of Natalie Portman L do you really want to know please tell us I don't sleep mother off that y anding do 120 getting while not known for stirring up controversy Natalie Portman entered this digital short as an acclaimed actress free from scandals the interview quickly takes a dramatic turn as the performer reveals a different side of herself becoming a hardcore rapper Portman transforms into an over-the-top performance that's comedy gold all the kids she reveals some controversial Life Choices that would make

legendary sketch from any guy in Hollywood who would it no more questions number 93 haunted elevator featuring David S pumpkins 49th floor here we go here we go here we go how's it hanging I'm David pumpkin and I'm going to scare the hell out of you after this sketch came out Halloween was never quite the same Tom Hank stars as David S pumpkins a character who throws a haunted elevator ride for a hilarious Loop his introduction and dancing only confuse guests as they struggle to understand him Hanks isn't afraid to make crazy faces throughout this amazingly strange Journey shedding his nice guy persona for something much stranger the writers actively question the man as the ridiculous segment continues to offer up Surprises by the end this amusing sketch haunts our nightmares as much as it makes us Roar with [Applause] laughter number 92 word association it's just a word association I'll uh throw you out a few words uh anything that comes to your mind just throw back at me okay just kind of an arbitrary thing like if I said dog you say tree tree with Richard prior and Chevy Chase together SNL doesn't need much more to make a sketch Classic this job interview starts easy enough until it descends into a screaming match Chase's character proposes a game of word association making the situation both Darkly funny and intense this razor sharp dissection of race in America might seem controversial to some but prior's performance here really sells the entire concept colored redneck jungle bunny peka [Applause] wood bhead cracker his shift in personality gets even more hilarious as he fights back against his interviewer it's yet another example of Saturday Night Live pushing comedy forward in the 1970s I think you're qualified for this job uh about a starting salary of $5,000 your mama number 91 Star Wars Undercover Boss Star Killer base it's not as easy as I presumed what up mant hey you kicked my wrench jerk face willing to poke fun at a Star Wars role Adam Driver Dives head first into this parody of Undercover Boss Kyo Ren fails to fool his employees on Star Killer base that he's actually one of them through his many attempts to play it cool the villain proves to be comically inept in every way driver seamlessly transitions the evil character into a sketch full of great gags a buddy of mine saw kylo Ren take his shirt off in the shower and he said that kylo Ren had an eight pack but kylo Ren was shredded what your friend's a liar man kylo Ren is a punk his performance makes viewers consider if this could be a real show making the jokes even better in the process it's also funny to see the actor in a ridiculous disguise SNL had to bring this concept back for a sequel considering the success of the original hey guys I'm Randy the new intern okay Boomer right okay Boomer number 90 Nick the lounge singer sings Star Wars theme among his standout work on the show Bill Murray was arguably never as funloving as he was here the lounge singer Nick allows him to steal the show as a Cheesy artist trying to entertain patrons along with audience interaction this sketch includes some hilarious Renditions of songs that are nothing short of unlikely choices oh that cast makes me so sad oh Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Don't It Make My Brown Eyes [Music] Blue it's such a goofy performance that you can't help

most iconic characters on the show was featured on his first episode the church lady runs the church chat program with an iron fist telling off guests who don't meet her strict criteria carvey's every move feels like it's perfectly chosen to incite laughs from the audience playing up the woman's religious beliefs the actor Works in lines about Satan better than anyone could is that advice coming from you Ann or is it coming from someone else like oh I don't know say Satan the rec ing sketch had everything from top-notch Impressions to real life people enduring the host's Wrath whether it was

Lobster I'll have the lobster excuse me the Lobster special did you just order Lobster in a diner paying homage to musical theater this sketch is shamelessly campy in the best way possible Pete Davidson's character orders Lobster at a diner and sets off a chain reaction that calls for elaborate musical numbers this includes some hilarious and accurate parodies of liab a dam menu way too long and half the things are fake or wrong must he die how can you ever face his Lobster friends at one point Davidson can barely contain his laughter as he watches the absurdity unfold before him the outrageous medley seems to honor the original show as well as setting up many laugh out loud moments if you can watch Keenan Thompson sing with a straight face you are much stronger than us form the

shake my hand Oh no you're specifically cough into I saw it after making the genius move of casting Larry David as Bernie Sanders SNL decided to take the impression to the next level this sketch serves as a full-on parody of Kier enthusiasm with the lead role swapped out for the political candidate she gave me a cough and Shake sure it wasn't a cough and a wipe and a shake no no there was no wipe definitely no wife she didn't have the decency to give me a wife blending in David's observational humor this idea perfectly spins the HBO show into a series of Misadventures for the politician

what's the matter kpacho good what what do you do now they don't like a kpacho they try kacho oh you got to try kacho how you know you don't like let you try as the clothes start to come off the main

extremely well well here as Washington explains his own ideas for measurements sir in this new country what plans are there for men of color such as I distance will be measured in inches feet yard and milees these include fumbled attempts to talk about things like gallons with entertaining reactions from the co-stars baretti knocks it out of the park with his unexpected and silly impression of the

fellow towns people find out that Mr Potter betrayed them the group decides to exact revenge in a funny curveball to the classic story oh World revolve around here on your running well that's a Mr

presidential debates since the mid 1970s Saturday Night Live has created a rich tradition of political satire that spans the Ford Administration to the 2020 election and Beyond this sketch finds Al Gore and George W bush fighting over issues in the funniest way possible now to all outward appearances it would be a leatherbound edition of the count of mon Cristo by Alexander deas but it wouldn't be it would be the lockbox throughout the sketch both performers do their best impressions of the two candidates this includes copying their respective speech patterns and vocabulary in hilarious ways one highlight of the SE comes when they offer up their closing statements providing amazing catchphrases while darl Hammond does a fantastic job saying lockbox will frell's use of the word strategery

laughable and awful things wait where you going that costume on he's probably in the early stages of heat stroke [Music] most people likely remember the version said at Disney featuring all the wonderful chaos that can spring up from the actors laughing the actress struggles to hold it together as she has to say increasingly terrible lines maybe the best moment comes when she talks about her

to all kinds of unexpected club and guest names not only does he make audiences laugh hater frequently breaks himself while performing this part it became so prevalent that it's practically woven into

political figures vying for attention this includes a genius stroke of casting in Tina Fay as Sarah Palin the actress joins Amy polar as Hillary Clinton in this address brilliantly playing off for co-star it's a funny script full of comedic tension and amazing onliners I believe that diplomacy should be the Cornerstone of any foreign policy and I can see Russia from my house Fay gets to say a line that is as hilarious as anything said this Century on the show with polar providing a fantastic Counterpoint as Clinton these two are a laugh Riot while trying to share the stage somehow the

woman to make it to the White House no mine number 17 James Brown celebrity hot tub [Music] party Eddie Murphy has shown time and again that his star power can make anything work case in point a show where James Brown sings and dances around a hot tub the sketch's simple concept allows for for the performer to run free in an incredible comedy showcase Murphy can do an impression of brown move like him and lean into the silliness of the scene at one point the character discovers the water is too hot and he responds in the funniest way he can yeah [Music] [Applause] go it cool the entire

give her something that says I'm not a woman anymore I'm a mom number 13 the rockberry guys [Music] it might be one of the simplest ideas but SNL wouldn't feel the same without this sketch the premise follows clubgoers who love dancing with their heads jamming to hattaways what is Love Will Ferell and Chris Katan cruise around town as they do their thing it's unexpectedly funny while also being endlessly entertaining using Legends like Martin Short and Jim Carrey the group never fails to attract amazing guest stars seeing the overconfident characters fail in their conquests makes them strangely lovable and hilariously inept popular enough to prompt a spin-off movie this concept makes us want to dance and laugh along every time wrong with what the hell is going on just number 12

won over our hearts with this sketch we're going to go with Adrien I knew it man number nine close encounter that being touched my head I felt every emotion in its purest form he was amazing and I cried sir when three people have an experience with aliens they're brought in for government questioning Kate McKinnon's character ends up having a truly strange experience that stands out instead of

were gone so uh my coot coot was out this full Porky Pig in at a drafty Dome there's also the fact that Ryan Gosling breaks during the sketch mixing chaos and laughter this premise doesn't let up at

box girl you know we're been together such a long long time long many digital shorts have showcased the musical talents of the Lonely Island crew but few do it better than this one Justin Timberlake

NPR's delicious dish sweaty balls what are you going to leave Terry uh I can't ever leave food out in my apartment because I have an excessive rat problem some SNL sketches like to build up a simple joke into iconic moments for this sketch the delicious dish Duo welcomes a man named Peach Wy and the rest is history Alec Baldwin's character comes with an unfortunate last name that produces a lot of funny innuendos I can't help but notice Pete your balls are a little Miss shaping that's because I rested them on a hot stove for too long once he brings out his sweaty balls it's nearly impossible to keep a straight face major props to the entire cast for making it through this comedy Minefield unscathed fans of the radio network can also appreciate Molly Shannon and Anna gast's reactions and

it works catch a bass remove the hook and drop the bass that's the whole bass into the Super bassomatic 76 now adjust the control dial his character confidently sells a blender that's supposed to grind up the bass hole committing to the bit the comedian actually Blends a fish in front of him acro's confidence sells this sketch especially well considering how hilariously useless it is with a
