Kudos to Rachel Dratch for being able to get out any lines at all with everyone breaking around her, hilarious.

I’m sorry but when he wiped his tears with the waffle I DIED

[RealFunbotYTOfficial]

This is such a classic. I’ll never forget seeing this for the first time live on tv and tears streaming down my face from laughing so hard

[shnugglebugs]

I love that "I can't have children" was the breaking point. I remember watching this with my dad and just laughing our asses off😂😂

“You’re enjoying your day, everything’s going your way, then along comes 2020.”

[nulz]

i still loose it over the “It’s official...I can’t have children”🤣🤣

[captaintom]

Armisen's ability to keep a straight face is unparalleled.

[Baegitte]

can SNL release a collection of character breaks?

[kategarry]

Nothing beats Horatio wiping his tears of laughter with waffles at 5:20

The lingerie party one was a cut sketch from when Betty White hosted. I've heard about it, but never seen it. Nice that they brought it back.

"It's the number one killer of domestic cats."

[tnskyhawk]

I want Debbie Downer to come back and talk about COVID 19.

[eddieavila]

No matter what 2020 brings i watch this skit and I’m in tears laughing. Everyone breaking character makes this one of my all time SNL skits.

[artsyandria]

You know Debbie would not stop talking about Coronavirus

[KermittheKong]

I loved this sketch everyone kept breaking character

[elinaduberow]

"Bird flu is even deadlier than SARS."
Little did they know there would be a sequel

[KaylieW]

5:21 that man seriously just went ahead and wiped his tears with the waffle, literally ROTFL🤣🤣

[imtryingmybest]

Keenan really has been on here forever...the fact that he’s on there the year I was born and the fact that he’s literally still there is incredible

[cduncan]

It’s this day in history, the first clip is from 16 years ago, and the first face we see is Kenan Thompson

This video cured my cat's feline AIDS, it's the number one killer of domestic cats
