That may have outdone Rachel Dratch's "Debbie Downer" break. Well done--and understandable--Heidi! SNL make-up artist deserves an Emmy for their work on this sketch. Instant classic!
@@MarshonMatthius That's a hot take. He has been one of the better actors of the past decade. The man can do comedy, sci fi, drama, thriller, action, horror. The dude is an actual movie star. It doesn't matter what he is in, people will go see it.
@@eewhopp4925 the extra on the far left at 3:16 is literally smiling from the character break so it's funny to them, also; they just aren't supposed to laugh which is literally their job there.
Christopher Walken said he was in a Southeast Asian country (can't recall which one) having dinner at a restaurant when a man at the table next to him said "Hey Christopher....you know what this salad needs? More cowbell."
A lot of people are piling on Ryan for breaking character constantly, neglecting the fact most of his skits are some of the funniest SNL produces, and even the main cast breaks, like with Close Encounters. Maybe it's not Ryan's fault for breaking when we know full well everyone who watched broke. His skits are just that good and funny. Maybe start asking why no one breaks in other skits, or it sounds like a laugh track being played. Skits like this are the standard SNL needs to stay at, at the same level of Matt Foley living in a van down by the river.
I think I’ve watched this like 100 times and it never stops being funny. One of the funniest things to me is when Keenan narrows his eyes when he sees Beavis
According to Heidi, this sketch had been pitched for like 5 years by Mikey Day and writer Streeter Siedell, but never made it to air. It finally did and Heidi broke immediately upon seeing Days' face on air lol
I just moved from Garland, Texas. Which was Mike Judge's insperation for King of the Hill's Arland. Beautiful lawns in the front and driveways and wooden fences in the back along the alley. Great place to live. 😄
Aidy breaking when the wardrobe lady accidentally appeared will always be my #1. Hearing Cecily cracking up off-camera had me crying/laughing for 10 minutes. This definitely on my Rushmore, though. 😂😂😂
@@thatperson7077Its called "Inside the Beltway." Another from the same night called "Apple Picking Ad" had Kate breaking alongside Aidy. Was the 2020 opener with Woody Harrelson.
@@KalebKing88 most likely it was. Since Heidi never breaks - producers probably thought "during rehearsals there will be no make up, let's see if she can handle this".
this is one of the best SNL skits in a long time. it has the feel of SNL from the 90s. people cracking, missing lines, general hilarity just from the nature of the skit...gold.
@@michaeltruly3260 Oh look, another person that doesn't know what woke means, complaining, quite ironically, like the snowflake moniker these backward people hurl at us.
This show has had a massive turnaround like nothing I ever have seen or expected for a show that started it's 48th season with an almost entirely brand new cast and it WORKS!
@KendellBradley You guys have no sense of humor, being all serious is not gonna get you nowhere in life. I'm gonna say that about you, and I'm gonna say that directly to you. Don't watch it then, and drop the attitude
Respect to Kenan Thompson for holding the sketch together. Serious pro there, been doing this sketch comedy stuff on live TV since he was in freaking middle school
I’ve known Kenan since the first season of “All That”; literally part of my childhood even though he is around my age lol. He has always been able to pull through. However, during the “I put the screw in the tuna!” from Kenan and Kel?! He was fighting for his life lol!
Heidi breaking character when she sees Butt Head is the funniest part of this video! 🤣 The make up / costume folks really hit the mark on this one too! 👏 Bravo!!!
He is amazing!! I love how even though he's a "Heartthrob" to women, he never takes himself seriously and is so humble!! Love his work!! He was fantastic in The Big Short!!
Outside of Heidi's incredibly infectious breaking, one of the funniest things in this sketch is Ryan's acting in the very beginning: having "Beavis'" being SUPER interested and attentive in this town hall conversation.
Maybe in one of those "funny name news disaster" skits. They always reference shows and movies anyway. That would be amazing if they're like the Matt Schatt-style normal guy only weird by happenstance things.
I wanted to hear their laughs! That’s what gets me about B&B. Love those characters! And I’m a 73 y/o female! Always loved them since they first came on the scene. Cracks me up.
@@jg2722yeah because Gosling is a guest and Fallon was a cast member and therefore supposed to be a bit more professional and yet he broke in basically EVERY sketch he was ever in. Even when it wasn't even that funny, he would break just for some cheap extra attention. Oh and Fallon also sucks so there's that too.
@@jg2722 never thought I see someone defend Fallon but okay. Gosling is a guest and Ferrell never broke as much as Fallon, at least to the point of memorable annoyance to viewers. It's not really complicated.
@@jg2722 Why you feel the need to go around defending Jimmy's honor when nobody even insulted, much less mentioned him says more about you than any smokescreen you're throwing up about why Ryan breaking is also so bad and naughty. You don't like Ryan Gosling. Message received. Try moving on and letting people comment on what they enjoy without antagonizing them.
I keep coming back to this video. I LOL. EVERY. TIME. Her attempt to cover him up with her hand to regain composure is so sweet, and ultimately...totally ineffective. The makeup team deserves a raise...this shit's going down in history.
This is a wonderful love letter to Mike Judge, creators of Beavis & Butthead and King of the Hill. I wish I could give this sketch a thumbs up for every time I've re-watched it.
Some of the non-verbal actions are what make this sketch work so well. Kenan's eye squint as he first sees Gosling as Beavis is low key hilarious. Gosling's choice to look around confused after Kenan notices him kept the laughs coming. The best however was Mikey making his eyes even wider when Heidi looks back and makes her probably lose it even more.
she actually had seen the makeup, exactly as seen in the skit, beforehand. In an interview afterwards, she said the look you describe that Mikey gave her is what made her lose it.
This was highly entertaining. I guess Heidi hadn't seen the finished product. Best moment at 3:05 when Mikey anticipates her turn around and widens his eyes to really deliver the full look to her, causing the meltdown. EDIT: Kenan's mic is on and you can hear him saying "oh god" in a laugh when she breaks.
When these people break character it is because they are caught off guard. it was clear that Heidi wasn't aware of what they were going to do or how they were going to look... She was going in blind... It isn't bad actor or "the formula"... it means that it was so funny that even the people that do this for a living... Found it so hilarious...
I'm officially declaring this to be among my top 5 SNL moments of all time. Absolutely hilarious! Heidi's reaction to Butt-Head has me in tears each time I watch it.
What other skits are your top ten? Mine are the Cheeseburger skits with John Belushi, What the hell is that with Steve Martian and Bill Murray, the Cowbell skit, this one and The Van down by the river.
Underrated parts of this sketch: 1. Ryan looking around trying to see who Kenan was talking about. 2. Kenan knowing all of the B&B lore. 3. Mikey tapping Longfellow.
@@clvrswineYeah, _underrated_ became a way of saying “I want to highlight to the audience that I like a thing” years ago, and it’s only kept getting more cliche as time passes.
Although not the star of this sketch, Keenan continues to prove why he has been on SNL so long. Keenan can make a simple face, or a squint of the eye that has real comedic value. I hope he sticks around for season 50
Yeah, no doubt! I mean, poor Heidi didn’t stand a chance when she looked over her shoulder to address him for the first time. Lol😂 I would’ve been a complete mess if I were in her shoes.😂
@@danielgo3898 Almost certainly because I'm guessing you're not an improv actor. She borderline ruins the sketch. If they purposefully set her up to break like this, that's one thing, but when you break that often and for that long, you take the attention away the bit.
The way she broke and started laughing when she saw the Butthead character in the audience is a big reason why this is now one of my favorite SNL skits of all time. I've already watched it several times, and as if it wasn't already funny enough...the description he gives her of the gentleman, and then the way it gets her going once she sees him makes me laugh so much harder every time I see it. Thank you for that incredible SNL moment Heidi!!
I think this is my absolute favorite SNL skit of all time. When she turns around and sees Butthead and just completely loses it is one of the funniest things I've ever seen.
lol, indeed. I think the audience who managed not to break was probably thinking of the worst thing that ever happened to them to distract them from the hilarity.
@@thewholetruth5473 yeah, and if you see most of the comments I guarantee almost everyone thought it was funny, because it was. Now if you didn't find it funny is ok, you don't need to like everything
@@thewholetruth5473 you didn’t find this skit funny at all? The first time watching it I couldn’t Stop laughing! You probably weren’t amused by the cartoon Beavis and Butthead, were you? I thought the actor pointing out B&B also made it funny with his reactions. Heidi laughing made me laugh. I’m one of those that watched Carol Burnett, and enjoyed them breaking character and laughing at each other.
Ok, How can something be even funnier the second & third time you watch it? That’s when you know something is truly hilarious! This is an instant classic!
This will go down in history as one of the all-time best, and most extreme character breaks of all time. Look for it in every single "SNL cast members breaking character" compilation from now on.
They probably didn't know who/what Beavis & Butthead are. And to be honest I didn't think this was all that funny. Keenan having to explain what B&B was for example. Heidi cracking up is funny but the sketch per se isn't really.
The extras in this sketch deserve a recognition. Because they were so professional and so in their character, they managed to mantain a straight face the whole time👏👏👏
The way Butthead stares at Heidi when she turns around is PRICELESS. There was no way for her to keep a straight face after THAT. This may be the hardest I've EVER laughed at an SNL skit! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
In her interview with Vulture, she said Mikey Day bugging his eyes out a bit when she first looks back at him was not in the rehearsal. The article is a fun read.
I'm a simple man with humor like this. For me, the thing that put me in tears is just Ryan Gosling looking around in the background when they mention "Beevis" acting completely oblivious to the fact they're clearly talking about him. Simple, subtle physical comedy will always get me 😂
Heidi’s such a pro for not breaking (ie: that Adele, Kate Africa skit) and seeing her come undone and break character was SO FUNNY! It was game over when she turned around and saw Mikey as Butthead 😂
Mikey knew what he was doing. He had seen how Heidi reacted to gossling so he intentionally got her to break. When you see her look back at him, Mikey intentionally makes intense and exaggerated eye contact and lilts forward. He nearly chuckles himself. This was hilarious
@@WhereThereDude it's a reference that comes out of nowhere in the best way possible, done in a way you would not expect, with full costumes and everything. That's a brilliant reference, not a meh one. The corpsing is funny enough, but the real joke being that the two guys have absolutely no idea they look like Beavis and Butthead, while Kenan points it out to them for the first time in their lives apparently, is again out of left field in the best possible way. Unpredictability is the cornerstone of good comedy. Something SNL tends to forget after a spat, then remembers eventually. Why that is I honestly don't know.
@@olegdepapa as George Costanza once said to Jerry Seinfeld, in a very serious tone, "It's FUNNY." On multiple levels, in fact. If you can't see it, that's on you. Hell, I haven't seen a modern SNL skit get this much praise across the internet. I mean, never before until now.
When Heidi looked over her shoulder and insta-broke was the best part of the sketch.
That's the point where I started laughing out loud.🤣
That may have outdone Rachel Dratch's "Debbie Downer" break. Well done--and understandable--Heidi! SNL make-up artist deserves an Emmy for their work on this sketch. Instant classic!
Mikey Day's inner monologue when Heidi turned around and lost it laughing: "COME to Butthead! uh Ha ha huh, Uh huu ha HUH!, This is COOL!"
🤣🤣🤣🤣 This was fantastic!!! I can't blame them! Hilarious! 🤌
Don’t mean to hate, but it had opposite effect for me. It was like an amateur high school level performance.. ruined the sense of irony for me.
Ryan gosling looking around was priceless. He pulled that off perfect
He does “genuine” really well
Yeah he did! I’m surprised they didn’t try and make a live action spin off!🤣🤣🤣

In my 25+ years of watching SNL I don’t think I’ve ever seen a solo actor break so hard and as long as Heidi.
Which means so much more since Heidi is a master of NOT breaking.
Bill Harder in the wheelchair sketch comes to mind. But this might top that.
Larry David broke so much in a skit, you couldn't hear what he was saying and he just powered through it, laughing so much.
all scripted. She doesn't even know who B&B are/was.

I thought she was Maya Rudolph for a second
I wonder if the dress rehearsal had different makeup
They 100% do full dress rehearsals, but I like her reaction.
She couldn't handle it. 😂😂😂
Yeah, that was Ryan-level unprofessionalism.
After years of being one of the best to keep it together, Heidi fell, and her fall was magnificent and hilarious.
It made the whole skit even better. 😂
@@staff2thecatsIt really did. It made me like her even more.
Everyone does it at least once, she earned hers. Was it scripted

@@goldbigeagle6772No. Absolutely silly that people are saying SNL is having people break on purpose.
One of the best skits ever. Right up there with “more cowbell.”

Extraordinarily well written and executed!
Christopher Walken said he was in a Southeast Asian country (can't recall which one) having dinner at a restaurant when a man at the table next to him said "Hey Christopher....you know what this salad needs? More cowbell."
SNL hasn't been solid for years, but this sketch is pure gold. If only they could steer away from politics and focus on the funny.
Agree 100% this actually makes it worth watching the newer cast. Since Bill Hader left it's been rough.
All time classic. The way Keenan's eyes narrow when he spots Beavis just sets the tone
Can't believe Gosling played it straight. Very cool.

I can just hear Beavis saying “oh yeah, that makes a lot of sense”.
they have incredibly busy lives and are deeply interested in the impact of this groundbreaking technology
Ryan is always self effacing that’s why I love him.

I keep coming back to this video. I LOL. EVERY. TIME. Her attempt to cover him up with her hand to regain composure is so sweet, and ultimately...totally ineffective. The makeup team deserves a raise...this shit's going down in history.
Much funnier when Carol Burnett did it. Or even when Jimmy Fallon copied her. Breaking character is such an old bit now, just unprofessional.
@@dposting2941 Man I bet you are a HIT at parties :D
This will be or already is a snl classic funny as hell
@@dposting2941 everyone else besides you laughed
@@dposting2941 I guess you never watched the original cast? They lose it at least once in every show. That's what made it even funnier.
It’s crazy how Heidi losing it just makes the sketch all that much better.
It's always better when someone legit breaks. It's weird, you don't NEED it, but it's laugh validation.
That's not crazy at all.
No idiots it fks the skit up
@@chadwindham2979 no it doesn't.
@@chadwindham2979 Look, someone we are all really happy to not be around!
0:45 them calves though
Nothing special
Lmao
Props to Kenan for staying in character and steering the ship when literally every other cast member couldn't keep it together!
Exactly!
Yes. He was the glue that allowed everything else to pop.
He is usually the one who keeps character anyway, but I have to think he was "in on it" and knew what was coming, unlike the poor victim :)
Keenan is after all the narrator for the Irish play, who kept it together when announcing a play's character would soon be displaying his "penis".
Probably he saw the final product before the sketch starts.
This is a wonderful love letter to Mike Judge, creators of Beavis & Butthead and King of the Hill. I wish I could give this sketch a thumbs up for every time I've re-watched it.
Didn't think SNL would be big fans of his seeing he's good friends with Alex Jones
@@KC-td8um You can appreciate a person's works without necessarily subscribing to their beliefs. It's the tale, not he who tells it.
How so? It's not funny, the wasted potential is off the charts.
I just binged it 7 times in a row.
@@KC-td8um Didn't Mike write some short sketches for SNL back in the 90's? I seem to remember those, but I'm old, what can I say.
The real MVPs are the extras keeping it together while everyone else was giggling all throughout
We did amazing!
Right?! Like wow. I was wondering if they get a pay bonus or something as incentive bc how can you not fall into the infectious laughter? 🤣
@@lioness3030 how hard was it to keep it together? 😂
The SNL cast faking like they are cracking up so they can score applause and steal the scene started with Jimmy Fallon. These scene is no different.
@@InvisibleRen you should call NBC and ask them to pay us bonus! 😂
This has to be the longest character crack-up in SNLS history. Lmao. It's hysterical
Some of the non-verbal actions are what make this sketch work so well. Kenan's eye squint as he first sees Gosling as Beavis is low key hilarious. Gosling's choice to look around confused after Kenan notices him kept the laughs coming. The best however was Mikey making his eyes even wider when Heidi looks back and makes her probably lose it even more.
the funny thing is it looked like Mikey was trying to make Heidi break.
she actually had seen the makeup, exactly as seen in the skit, beforehand. In an interview afterwards, she said the look you describe that Mikey gave her is what made her lose it.
Thought Mikey's hand gesture to Michael Longfellow was the winner.
This was highly entertaining. I guess Heidi hadn't seen the finished product. Best moment at 3:05 when Mikey anticipates her turn around and widens his eyes to really deliver the full look to her, causing the meltdown. EDIT: Kenan's mic is on and you can hear him saying "oh god" in a laugh when she breaks.
Mikey knew EXACTLY what he was doing and I love him for it.
Given the context of AI, I think SNL created the reality of Americans perfectly.
Right!
This was totally unfunny. What has happened to SNL over the past decade or so? They are never at all funny anymore.
clearly you've had your humor gland removed
This sketch is pure 1,000% anarchy and I am here for ALL OF IT.
You're trying too hard with your youtube comment lingo
@@forman208 Shhhhh! It seems to be _working._
Perfect description 😆
@@forman208You’re trying too hard with your Debbie Downer persona
3:51 C’mon Heidi get it together 😂
I LOVE it when they break character laughing!!!!
Heidi's reaction when she saw Butt-Head is pure gold! Lol
@XianS2019 Exactly. The present culture asks for, and expects, nothing more.
You gotta be a bot cuz this is trash
It’s staged honey
U love bad acting? Or contrived bad acting?
When these people break character it is because they are caught off guard. it was clear that Heidi wasn't aware of what they were going to do or how they were going to look... She was going in blind...
It isn't bad actor or "the formula"... it means that it was so funny that even the people that do this for a living... Found it so hilarious...
“I’ve heard rumblings…” idk why but that delivery was so hilarious 😂
Because he was trying his best not to laugh while failing miserably lol Laughter can be more contagious than the flu
Seriously that line absolutely killed us 😂
I thought so too 😭😭😆
Butthead suppressing his laughter while gosling delivers his line should be illegal, his face is so funny😂
Of all of the amazing stuff here, the best is the MIT professor knowing everything about Beavis and Butthead.
I mean... Someone like Neil Degrasse Tyson would 😆
I work with MIT professors daily as an admin. They DEFINITELY know them. Remember 50-year-old researchers/scientists are Gen X. 😂😂
They were not sexy, they did not go to parties
Yea so I’m a 50 year old former professor and still quote from them, so yea that checks out. 😂😂😂
"He eat the sugar and become Cornholio."
There’s nothing funnier than when the actors can’t help but break character because it’s so funny.
Now I want a Ryan Gosling Beavis and Butthead movie.
Exactly what I said!! With them playing them!!
@@wdkofc6989 Aubrey Plaza has done RUclips sketches as Daria. I would like to see her in the movie too as that character.
Please please make that movie powers that be
Wow. I’m in!
Practice the voice though - yeah, yeah.
I'm officially declaring this to be among my top 5 SNL moments of all time. Absolutely hilarious! Heidi's reaction to Butt-Head has me in tears each time I watch it.
What other skits are your top ten? Mine are the Cheeseburger skits with John Belushi, What the hell is that with Steve Martian and Bill Murray, the Cowbell skit, this one and The Van down by the river.

"I can't have children." - Debbie Downer at Walt Disney World
"Well, isnt that special..."
Wtf? I barely expressed a smile. The makeup looks great, but it was a very lazy skit.
The Background actors deserve an Emmy for their professionalism! And commitment to the craft!
Somebody had to…
They have just never watched Beavis and Butt-Head
Awww! Thank you so much! We finally getting recognized for our craft. 😅
I think they were AI generated, or as close as one could find in human beings.
The black guy on the right looks like beetlejuice from the stern show
The guy behind Keenan to the right trying his absolute hardest to keep it together. 😂
Underrated parts of this sketch:
1. Ryan looking around trying to see who Kenan was talking about.
2. Kenan knowing all of the B&B lore.
3. Mikey tapping Longfellow.
You have a firm grasp of the obvious. So insightful.
Please, please, lose "underrated" from the collection of words you know. It's been done. It's time to move on and join the adults.
Also allowed Ryan to show his profile and the prosthetic Beavis schnoz!
@@clvrswineYeah, _underrated_ became a way of saying “I want to highlight to the audience that I like a thing” years ago, and it’s only kept getting more cliche as time passes.
Nothing about it was funny
honestly the costume and makeup people deserve so much credit for this.
I concur. Makeup department rocked B&B!
So great❤
Yes PROPS!
Although not the star of this sketch, Keenan continues to prove why he has been on SNL so long. Keenan can make a simple face, or a squint of the eye that has real comedic value. I hope he sticks around for season 50
Keenan is a genius, I remember him from All That on Nickelodeon when I was a kid. He can get a laugh with a lift of an eyebrow.
He is incredibly good
Agreed!!! The squint is priceless!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@hooyah_whit7054 100%. That look KILLED me.
@@danmcreynolds4173 oh he definitely will n I hope he continues to be in the comedy biz for a while he should have his own show or something
I've watched this clip 20 times and I still LMFAO. On every single level this may be the greatest skits they've ever performed.
Mikey's "Butthead" was 100 % accurate. This is definitely Emmy caliber costume design.
The laugh was on point, a huh huh huh...
Yeah, no doubt! I mean, poor Heidi didn’t stand a chance when she looked over her shoulder to address him for the first time. Lol😂 I would’ve been a complete mess if I were in her shoes.😂
If Mikey doesn't win an Emmy, we riot😂
@@danielgo3898 Almost certainly because I'm guessing you're not an improv actor. She borderline ruins the sketch. If they purposefully set her up to break like this, that's one thing, but when you break that often and for that long, you take the attention away the bit.
@@gregchavez1534 she never (or rarely) breaks!
The way she broke and started laughing when she saw the Butthead character in the audience is a big reason why this is now one of my favorite SNL skits of all time. I've already watched it several times, and as if it wasn't already funny enough...the description he gives her of the gentleman, and then the way it gets her going once she sees him makes me laugh so much harder every time I see it. Thank you for that incredible SNL moment Heidi!!
If you watch closely, he gives a facial expression every so slightly that got her laughing. You can even see him laugh a little.
I think this is my absolute favorite SNL skit of all time. When she turns around and sees Butthead and just completely loses it is one of the funniest things I've ever seen.
Mikey Day made sure to give Heidi the most intense stare the second she turned around lol. She didn't stand a chance 😂
I honestly didn’t recognize him!
Almost pissed myself 😂😂😂😂😂
She didn’t have a chance.
@@Eflatmajor7sharp11 Right
lol, indeed. I think the audience who managed not to break was probably thinking of the worst thing that ever happened to them to distract them from the hilarity.
No matter how many times I see this it just hits with me. Huge Beavis and Butthead fan and to see SNL bring it back to life...
"He eat the sugar and become Cornholio." 😂
NOW SEE THAT’S JUST SOMEBODY TROLLING!!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That sent this sketch over the top for me!
TV for my bunghole!
Heidi breaking was pretty darn adorable. Don't be angry Lorne.
why would he be angry?
@@danijel00fulHe famously doesn't like it when the performers break too much.
@@dharmashark108 hm, I thought he liked that
Mikey Day inner monologue: "Heidi COME to Butthead! Uh huh ha huh, Uh uh ha ha huh, thees is COOL!!
This whole night was about breaking characters. It was the best!
This is hands down the hardest I've laughed at any bit in this show's history. Heidi's meltdown is as priceless as it was genuine.
that's not what a meltdown is bruh
@@terrellp22 meltdown into a laughing fit, was a figure of speech.
Middle aged man and drinkin buddy
Very weird replies on this channel... Lol
3:07 "Sir.."
Famous last word
Huge shout out to the extras who were able to keep a straight face through this entire sketch adding to the comedic elements.
Especially the black lady sitting next to Beavis she wasn’t going to break for nothing lol
I wanna know how they did it!?
That’s what I said!!! You see some smirk… but to not laugh… that’s great acting!!
It wasn't that funny..
Keenan’s eye squint when he sees Beavis is pure genius!
😂 agreed
He was the only one able to keep it together. I was impressed lol
I had to make it a gif
Kenan uses his eyes and mouth expressions really well in his comedy. His Deion Sanders last year was absolutely amazing because of his facial control
This gotta be the best skit of the year, with Heidi, Ryan and Mikey breaking character. I’m still laughing.
@@imacg5The make up people win on this one. I couldn’t figure out who it was at first.
Seriously? You actually thought this was funny? For real?
@@thewholetruth5473 yeah, and if you see most of the comments I guarantee almost everyone thought it was funny, because it was. Now if you didn't find it funny is ok, you don't need to like everything
@@thewholetruth5473 you didn’t find this skit funny at all? The first time watching it I couldn’t Stop laughing! You probably weren’t amused by the cartoon Beavis and Butthead, were you? I thought the actor pointing out B&B also made it funny with his reactions. Heidi laughing made me laugh. I’m one of those that watched Carol Burnett, and enjoyed them breaking character and laughing at each other.
Chloe too
Ok, How can something be even funnier the second & third time you watch it?
That’s when you know something is truly hilarious!
This is an instant classic!
The SNL makeup artists deserve ALL THE AWARDS
Costume couldn’t find an AC/DC shirt and Metallica shirt?
@@nickfury6434 to be fair, Beavis and Butt-Head probably like more than two bands. 😂
@@nickfury6434 prob didn't feel like paying royalties
Thank you for acknowledging this
@@nickfury6434 They also had the Skull and Death Rock shirts in the cartoon sometimes.
Heidi break made this even better for me i love that comics find things just as funny as I do. Even the setup of Keenan eyes was genius.
Bill Hader is infamous for it though lol
Hahaha word as soon as Keenan squinted like is that Beavis hahah😂 I knew it was gone be hilarious 😂
This will go down in history as one of the all-time best, and most extreme character breaks of all time. Look for it in every single "SNL cast members breaking character" compilation from now on.
Biggest question is why anyone would want to watch a "SNL cast members breaking character" video.
@@voldemort008 because those videos are hilarious
I have to say those extras were really good, when seasoned big actors are breaking characters live they aren't even bending their eyebrows.
They probably didn't know who/what Beavis & Butthead are. And to be honest I didn't think this was all that funny. Keenan having to explain what B&B was for example. Heidi cracking up is funny but the sketch per se isn't really.
The extras in this sketch deserve a recognition. Because they were so professional and so in their character, they managed to mantain a straight face the whole time👏👏👏
Legit 🔥
Me too. Does that make me "so professional."
you could see some of them straining I felt for them in that moment LOL
They were probably added with AI
@@alphanerd7221 you're staying in character? Very professional.
“I’ve heard rumblings…” is my favorite line from the whole skit 😂 had me crying laughing
the "you put em right next to each other!?" was hilarious too
I’m offended by this skit
I was already crying laughing as it was and then the "I've heard rumblings" line dropped and I almost woke up the baby upstairs lol.
As if he hasn't been an A list actor for 20 years 😂😂😂😂
"I've heard rumblings..." is, in itself, one of the funniest lines of the sketch.
Agreed
Maybe it's this Beamis person....LOL
Agreed that's what made me laugh out loud. LOL, if you will.
Hands down the funniest, I'm fucking crying right now
Heidi looking back at Butthead must've been her first time seeing him in full makeup, because her reaction just seems so genuine. 🤣
“I’ve heard RUMBLINGS…” 😂
HEY....the man heard "Rumblings" ..what of it!?
This is the worst attempt to do BnB I ever seen
😅😂
Need a hug?@@Hola-ro6yv
Bro thinks he's in AOT

Totally caught me off guard lol 😂
The way Butthead stares at Heidi when she turns around is PRICELESS. There was no way for her to keep a straight face after THAT. This may be the hardest I've EVER laughed at an SNL skit! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Agreed
Who is playing Butthead?
@@GreenmanWood Mikey Day
In her interview with Vulture, she said Mikey Day bugging his eyes out a bit when she first looks back at him was not in the rehearsal. The article is a fun read.
I'm laughing just reading the comments here.
This is the greatest sketch ever in which numerous people completely break. It somehow manages to make this even better.
I'm a simple man with humor like this. For me, the thing that put me in tears is just Ryan Gosling looking around in the background when they mention "Beevis" acting completely oblivious to the fact they're clearly talking about him. Simple, subtle physical comedy will always get me 😂
Then you would love the movie Top Secret. 🤣
Yessssss!!!! 💯
@@antoniobarrara9052 Is that the one with Val Kilmer? I'll definitely need to look into finally watching it if so, thanks for the tip friend!
I caught that too😂 definitely overlooked for most☠️
Beavis
This was the best break in years.
😅😅😅😅😅😅😂😂😂😂😂
This is one of the best SNL skits I've seen in years and years.
The only decent one I've seen in decades.
It's trash.
I haven’t laughed at SNL in 20 years but this finally got me. Bravo.
@@mattbarker1411no it’s fucking not
King of the Hill at the end was chefs kiss 😂
I feel we're all under appreciating Chloe's snort laugh at 4:56
Ryan even reacts to it
Heidi’s such a pro for not breaking (ie: that Adele, Kate Africa skit) and seeing her come undone and break character was SO FUNNY! It was game over when she turned around and saw Mikey as Butthead 😂
Mikey knew what he was doing. He had seen how Heidi reacted to gossling so he intentionally got her to break. When you see her look back at him, Mikey intentionally makes intense and exaggerated eye contact and lilts forward. He nearly chuckles himself. This was hilarious
Daaaamn, that is easily the best SNL sketch in ages and ages. Like something from the 90s era. Perfect.
Meh is just a silly reference and the joke is that they are corpsing...
@@WhereThereDude it's a reference that comes out of nowhere in the best way possible, done in a way you would not expect, with full costumes and everything. That's a brilliant reference, not a meh one. The corpsing is funny enough, but the real joke being that the two guys have absolutely no idea they look like Beavis and Butthead, while Kenan points it out to them for the first time in their lives apparently, is again out of left field in the best possible way. Unpredictability is the cornerstone of good comedy. Something SNL tends to forget after a spat, then remembers eventually. Why that is I honestly don't know.
yeah, i just wish it was funny as well
@@olegdepapa as George Costanza once said to Jerry Seinfeld, in a very serious tone, "It's FUNNY." On multiple levels, in fact. If you can't see it, that's on you. Hell, I haven't seen a modern SNL skit get this much praise across the internet. I mean, never before until now.
I have never seen Heidi break like that😂😂😂 3:08
I'm guessing that was her first time actually seeing their makeup.
Me either .......wow. lorne is gonna hate her laughing like that
Nah. It was gold. The audience went wild.
cuz it was fake breaking. Like Biill Hader
That’s exactly what I said!
3:08 that break was probably the most glorious break I’ve ever seen 🤣
Edit: OMG everyone’s breaking 🤣
