The best SNL sketches are the ones that make me feel both attacked and validated at the same time.

Chris Redd deserves so much more recognition, the man kills it every time

[JamesFarrOfficial]

The thought of Willem Dafoe talking directly to me through my television screen is now officially the reason why I'm up.

Up. Up. Up. Up.

[daintycaked]

"then you remember something embarrassing you did in high school" That line is my life.

[billyeveryteen]

I'm laughing at the song, admiring how it's kind of catchy, then the realization hits that most of this stuff is too relatable.

Now I'm up.

Willem Dafoe was an excellent host. I'm happily surprised at his comedic chops. What a phenomenal talent that guy is.

"Then I think someday I'm gonna die"

This single line hurt and it's relatable af.

[flash-gzhu]

it's extra hilarious watching a serious actor full heartedly take on such a goofy role😂

[Dev-In-Denver]

As someone who has struggled with severe insomnia for years now this one spoke to my soul.

[Molly-vslv]

The subtle shift in sound quality when Willem Dafoe says "and also...you're NEVER GONNA FALL ASLEEP" is ridiculously smart

[SilverPlayer]

Honestly, the accuracy this show goes to in their songs, from beginning to the end.

[neurodivergent-velociraptor]

Why is no one talking about how ACCURATE that infomercial was?? The bad acting, the overuse of graphics, the phone number at the bottom of the screen- they nailed it

[margaretpeabody]

Kenan and his wife's, "sharp ass toenail", was the best!!

[banditraccoon]

This song is perfectly relatable.
Especially remembering that embarrassing thing in high school

[SundayMourningLove]

It's honestly ridiculous how good and catchy SNL's songs are! I have a whole play list of just SNL songs, lol!

[thegodofpez]

Chris Redd can actually sing pretty damn well. Hilarious skit and so relatable.

[shakoi]

This is beautiful especially with Willem Dafoe singing

[MakeupDrShari]

My new nighttime anthem. I love how they added Willem. Never thought I'd see him in a music video, even on SNL but it really works!

[VonteXP]

Let's go Chris Redd!!! Finally feels like he found his lane on this show. Him and Che are next level talented at stand up as well

[janet]

This is a masterpiece.... and I know a ton of work went into it. Kudos to whoever wrote and put it together!
