Herb Welch: Junior High School Report - Saturday Night Live

When news breaks at a local junior high school, veteran reporter Herb Welch is on the scene to give us the story. Aired 05/21/11

[GDT]

"They burned my friend." is one of the best Herb Welch lines.

[vincek]

This is my favorite Herb sketch. Possibly favorite Hader sketch. "They burned my friend" is the best and most underrated line delivered

[Beeimus]

Every time Bill looks away to laugh, a year is added to my life.

[NibberKSmooth]

Love how it's the same sketch each time and it never gets old.

[WRRIORWZRD]

"You suck Herb Welch"
"Thank you" - absolutely killed me  

[chickmcjr]

I love the continuing story of how everyone in the public is super understanding of Herb despite him constantly hitting them with microphones. 

[saifkhanchishty]

Yes, Hader is great, as usual. And so is Timberlake who has never disappointed here. But I think people forget Sudekis. He is a true professional and his reactions are just a right mix of subtle sarcasm and confusion.

[RHMGubloid]

“Like it or not, the folk scene is here to stay” just amazing.

[nunyabidness]

"'ah bonzai, remember me?!" *starts hitting him*

[davisgriffin]

The way he says “they burned my friend” is priceless 😂😂

[BigToeBePoppin]

Idk why but the poses Bill makes whenever he “dies” always gets me

[MaskedManMikeMD]

im trying so hard not to laugh in study hall, but i lost it on "They Burned My Friend."

[oriolez]

The second mic that he managed to get was hilarious 😂 love Herb!

[arjanghosh]

Hader's expression just before hitting the camera is always priceless. Absolutely epic.That guy is really talented.

[guyperson]

"Do you think uh...do you think Lucille Ball's a pinko?" one of the more underrated lines ever delivered at SNL

[Julezhaki]

"Come on the war is over herb!!" Lmfao i died of more laughter 😂😂😂

[KellyB-sgmz]

"I'm an art- art teacher.."

"With the macaroni and the... the














yarn..?"

[majajonsson]

"SUPLICE!" I am such a bad person for laughing so hard at that

[lori_marie]

Justin’s ability to stay in character and not break is so impressive!

[BobbySacamano]

"As always, we apologize to you in the Asian and female communities." That's gold
