"Saturday Night Live" brings laughs to audiences around the world at 11:30 p.m. every Saturday Night….LIVE! That’s right, folks. In case you didn’t know, the show is performed completely live after only a week of writing, set design, and rehearsals. Still, Saturday Night Live produces hilarious skits each season. Here are some favorites from the current season we should definitely watch again.
"Tidal"
"Tidal" is a skit starring celebrity host, Ariana Grande, Kenan Thompson, Jay Pharoah, Bobby Moynihan, and Sasheer Zamata. When Tidal’s radio system begins to fail, Chole the intern (Ariana Grande) must step up and impersonate singers like Britney Spears and Shakira. If you don’t watch to get a good laugh, you can, at least, appreciate Ariana Grande’s singing.
"Delta Flight"
This skit involves two flight attendants, played by celebrity host, Amy Schumer, and Vanessa Bayer, who are just trying to get their flyers excited for the flight. However, that’s really hard to do when the airplane door won’t stay shut.
"Yo! Where Jackie Chan at Right Now?"
The hosts of the talk show “Yo! Where Jackie Chan at Right Now?”, played by celebrity host, Tracy Morgan, and Kenan Thompson, are asking a question we all should think about long and hard. Where is Jackie Chan at right now? Does anyone know?
"Hotline Bling Parody"
This past year, Drake released a music video for his song “Hotline Bling” that people enjoyed mocking for months. Saturday Night Live took their own chance to create a version of “Hotline Bling” with Jay Pharoah starring as Drake.
" Star Wars Audition"
Star Wars: The Force Awakens demolished box offices earlier this year. In this skit, J.J. Abrams, director of the movie, shows us some audition tapes. You may be surprised to see some actors who tried out for the roles, like Sofia Vergara, Emma Stone, and Jon Hamm.
"City Council Meeting"
In this skit, various citizens from a small city share their issues they have at a city council meeting. Kenan Thompson, Aidy Bryant, and Amy Schumer all make appearances in this sketch!
"Birthday Party"
In this sketch, a couple girls are having a birthday party when one of the girl’s father comes down to check on them. One of the girl’s, played by Aidy Bryant, makes it very obvious she has a crush on the dad. Did I mention the dad is played by Ryan Gosling? Let’s be honest here. We’d all have the same feelings, wouldn’t we?
"Cut For Time: Bieber Concert"
In this sketch, Kyle Mooney interviews real fans waiting outside a Justin Bieber concert on the TODAY show. The results are hilarious and the fans reactions are priceless!
"Saturday Night Live" has a couple more weeks left before they take a break for the summer. So tune in and see what other hilarious sketches the show will bring us to wrap up its 41st season!
