The George Washington skit is one of the best comedic bits of any format that I've ever seen. Perfectly written and delivered.

[markshepardsongs]

the george washington sketch has been continuously funny after repeated watches in my house. so it has legs! love Nate! bravo!

[TheMonroemomma]

The Washington sketch truly IS the PERFECT SKETCH. I've watched it 20 times and it's still funny every time. Excellent.

[squirreldriver]

The line "there's a little kicking" (in football) in the George Washington sketch is so mundane, but Nate's delivery of it was one of the funniest things I have ever seen.

[GaliSinatra]

That George Washington sketch is one of my all-time favs from SNL.

[eltravos]

My favorite is when he says "Nobody knows" a few times in the sketch. It's so true lol.

I was shocked at how funny that Weights and Measurements sketch was. The timing between Keenan and Nate's lines, with the crowd in between - everything just lands exactly where it needed to.

Nate’s been a fantastic comedian for years. And his sketch winning the cooking show is one of my all-time favorites!
“You’re right, I’m sorry” (:

[leward]

I absolutely loved Nate (&company) Revolutionary War skit on SNL. I'll re-watch it from time to time, it's the best

[ArielDuffyable]

I loved his George Washington sketch on SNL so much!!

[yesloow]

The George Washington sketch was an instant SNL classic. Probably the best sketch I've seen on the show in years, and up there with More Cowbell and "What's up with that?"

[yourbigheadcousin]

I liked the Washington sketch but Soul Food was my favorite. "I'm sorry."

[temporaladvisor]

I can't wait to see Nate on SNL again. He is in my Top 5 SNL hosts. He killed it. Love his comedy specials and his podcast, and looking forward to his Christmas Variety Special at the Grand Old Opry in December. Always room for more Nate!

[ragweedmakesmesneeze]

The George Washington sketch will go down in SNL history as one of the best of all time.

[ayshapaige]

Nate is my favorite!! He did so well hosting last time. Can't wait to see him do it again! Can't believe nobody realized he's colorblind 😂

[Sarah-gm]

Your George Washington skit is HILARIOUS!

[deborahjohansen]

Wow! Nate Bargatze hosting a second time this soon after the first time!! That is excellent!❤🎉

[tomypreach]

The timing is unbelievably beautiful. Imagine the amount of time he’s spent perfecting it.. awesome !

[blackcatcrochet]

I've watched the Washington sketch 5 times at least...so funny. Also his monologue was hilarious. That entire snl episode was great all the way through. I can see why they're having him back bc most of the time it's so hit or miss.

[judithdomangue]

Have rewatched the George Washington sketch quite a bit. Cracks me up😂
