FunnySNLVideos.comThe best Saturday Night Live videos

So, I’m breaking with the site rule of “only the funny” videos from SNL and had to post about the “Angry Thanksgiving” sketch. This thing was horrid. I mean, it’s so bad, I can’t even find a clip of it online. Really. Google it. Go ahead, I’ll wait…..See! Nothing!

Here’s a quick description:

Angry Thanksgiving Dinner

Five of the cast members sit at Thanksgiving dinner and seem incredibly mad and frustrated by one another. Everytime it dissolves into anarchy Judith (Kristen Wiig) stands up and throws her napkin around and her family yells, “Sit down Judith! Sit down!” It ends with them finding peace singing Wilson Phillips “Hold On” together before falling into disagreement once again.

So yah, not funny at all. However, it DID remind me of one of the best Will Ferrell lines in a sketch. It’s not one of his most famous characters or even a well known catchphrase (i.e. “The perfect cheer!”) but it is incredibly enjoyable none-the-less. During a family dinner, that many of us have probably had, the whole clan is yelling when Ferrell trumps everyone with the phrase “I Drive a Dodge Stratus!!!”

It’s hilariously odd and completely relatable all at once. Check it out:

Once again, Bill Hader makes this sketch but I had to wonder, why did the decided to use Keenan instead of “The Rock” as the co-host? I know he’s not a regular cast member but, unless the cold open was pre-taped, Dwayne Johnson was already there to be “The Rock” Obama. Most of the laughs from the first “Greg is not an Alien skit” came from Johnson’s delivery and interaction with Hader. That said, Keenan trying to calm “Greg” when he got excited was good stuff. And the tail. What can be said about the tail? Comedic gold.

I know it’s a bit in violation of the rules of this site (“Only the Funny SNL skits!”) but I had to comment on this mildly funny Norwegian playhouse skit simply because it reminded me of one of my favorite “it’s funny because they speak another language” skits. While the Norwegian Cop Show skit has it’s moments, thanks mostly to Fred Armisen’s hilarious accent (“I’m getting very cross with youuuuu”), the “La Policia” skit hits a homerun with the grade level Spanish that most kids learn in elementary school and then run home to use in hopes of sounding impressive.

“La Bomba esta en la Biblioteca” indeed
