“And the slaves sir, what of them?”
“You asked about the temperature.”
“I did not.” 😂😂😂
That got me too...lmbo
:D
😂 💀 that killed me
Keenan's face!!!
the best part
This is low key one of the most “out-of-nowhere” best sketches out of SNL in awhile. 😂😊
Those are the best kind.
I love your guys' Gen Z slang 😂
"Frfr ong low key okuuurrr, yeet!"
It's one of those skits where the writers were probably like, "why didn't anyone think of this 30 years ago??"
@@Dan-cj9yg as the OP would say, "bet"
nate wrote it. snl isn’t funny anymore
"How many times have you watched this?" -"You asked about the temperature..."
“…..I did not”

@@Regs-sk4rwspell that for me?
“There’s a little kicking” is the funniest line of the season.
I watch this weekly for that line
Watched this a bunch and i don't get why that line gets such a laugh. There is not much kicking in football. Does that have an extra meaning for New Yorkers? It just doesn't strike me as funny as the rest of the skit.
@@evilhobbes (GREAT name, btw...I think Hobbes was just misunderstood...lol) That IS the point....there is NOT much kicking in a sport called "FOOTball"! The whole sketch is about the absurdities of words/names, and the differences therein...even when BOTH are "English" (And our desire to be SO different from our Euro fathers...even when it's ABSURD!!)
He says the game is called "FOOTball"...a name which they've NEVER yet heard...but logically assume to be a game where you KICK a ball. But then he describes it as "a game where you throw the ball with your hands.? But it's called FOOTball?? Absurd. (Truly...I say that as someone who doesn't like football and has always asked that question...) This description sets up the rest of the joke brilliantly:
Then the obvious next question..."So...in FOOTBall...there is NO kicking?" (That makes no sense...does it? Because that would be absurd...right?)
And finally the reply - "There's a little kicking..." (And what a BRILLIANT read on this line, as perhaps only Bargatze could give...which leads me to believe this sketch was written only this week FOR NATE, - Sometimes old, un-used sketches are recycled for a different host...but this seems to be TAILOR-MADE for Bargatze's style and tone...he's perfect!!)
Because in the sport that ALL of America adores...which is a brutal game where men battle each other, and march down the field to invade the opponent's endzone (Thank you, George Carlin...on THE FIRST "SNL" almost 50 years ago)...in that war-like sport of pushing and shoving....if you CAN'T make it into the endzone...you can just kick the ball between some sticks and that will get you points. I've always thought that was silly. What if instead of making it to home plate to score, we just let Derek Jeter see if he can toss a ball into a bucket from...oh....let's say 20 yards away...
@@evilhobbes because it's called "football" but it's a game that's mostly throwing and running, and when he says "kicking" it doesn't make sense, especially when he says that there are 2 different ways to get points (1 for an extra point and 3 for a field goal)
@@evilhobbes It's funny for the reason the rest of the skit is funny. It's an answer the audience knows already, the answer doesn't at all address the absurdity of what he's proposing, but he says it so deadpan and confidently like it settles the matter.
This is the best SNL skit in a long time.
"And what about the slaves, sir?"
"You asked about the temperature."
"I did not."
Where would SNL be without Keenan Thompson, he is absolutely brilliant!!
Kenan’s delivery is a cheat code
@@IM1deadMONEY Seriously. He's up there with Phil Hartman as the utility player everyone needs to make their sketches better.
That killed me. Kenan was trying so hard not to break character. He's got that grin that gets me every time. It was one of those funny but realistic dialogs between races. But that's a subject for another time.........

This is probably the best explanation I've heard for our system.

@@nickfury6434 That was Webster. He wanted to simplify the language. Didn't completely work, but its better.
Surprisingly interesting book called "Whatever Happened to the Metric System?" that goes into the history of how and why each system was adopted.
@misterdarwin or, watch this sketch and it perfectly explains anything you may ever need to know.
"There's a little kicking." May be the most well delivered line in SNL history.
Agree - best delivery in the skit. Not sure how Nate doesn't break. Good thing Fallon wasn't hosting.
Or the “you asked about the temperature”
LOL!! Yes!@@sydgrim
We were dying lol 😂
Sometimes 1 and sometimes 3 😅
“There’s a little kicking…” makes me laugh so hard every time I hear it. His delivery is perfection.
It really is. So many different ways that line could be delivered. Nate’s is by far the funniest way possible
“Sometimes one and sometimes three”…. That cracked me up!
De Niro style. "You insulted him a little bit."
This skit will stand the test of time as one of the best in snls' history
Agreed, mikev! I've been there since 1975, and this whole EP might easily make my top 10 or 15....arguably the best in MANY, MANY years. The B2B2B2B quartet of Chef Showdown, Stab at Love, LAKE BEACH, and Washington is one of the strongest sequences EVER in SNL history...they just got funnier as they went on ... "Airplane" later in the show was pretty solid too....Nate put himself on the all-time SNL great hosts list...
Yes
As long as this great nation stands we will know what they fought for. Freedom, Liberty, Units of measurement, and sometimes kicking. 😂
Agreed! There are so many people trying to revise history and pointing out that famous people were actually real human beings with period-thinking and that is something awful rather than revealing of the true (and slow) maturation of the country. Stuff like this can be funny and insightful and uneasy. No need to pretend our "heroes" weren't actually human beings.
It’s not a skit, it’s a sketch. Learn the difference.
Nate's ability to not break character or a smile is super amazing.
didn't know about this guy just that he's a proper comedian. Goes to show how good SNL can be. No disrespect to other hosts but damn it's good when they get a pro on
the fact that he's a comedian and not an actor is why it impresses me. I didn't expect him to be able to do it so well.
I’ve never even seen him laugh lol
@@aaronsinger blame fallon and sanz
comedians are good at delivering punchlines
Dear SNL, whoever wrote this sketch, PLEASE let them write many many MANY more!
Yeah, except maybe on the next ones, they write something where the premise isn't dumb as fuck. The measurements we use are the BRITISH IMPERIAL SYSTEM. According to the premise of the sketch, Washington was fighting for independence so he could keep using the same system they'd been using for over 100 years ...
It really seems based off a bit that Nate Bargatze would do in his stand up.
Streeter Seidell & Auguste White wrote this skit.
@@ChristopherPatriarca1shocked but happy. I honestly believe Nate gave them the premise. It’s too funny to organically come out of current SNL writers. If it did though, I’m super jazzed.
@@Reality_CStreeter said they’ve been sitting on this for a while, stop simping for Nate
I've watched this sketch 30 times at least. I still laugh out loud at every "Nobody knows."
You and me both!
@@gomist2018and me!😂
And, "There's a little kicking." 😂
When Bowen asks why and he’s just says “Liberty” is just America in a nutshell
I just want the rest of the world to know that we are equally as confused by our system as they are 😂
They don't line up and they never will 😂😅
From now on anytime my kid asks me a question I don't have an answer for, liberty son, liberty will be the answer.
OK this was a solid sketch. More of this, please, SNL.
Solidly written. Not solidly performed.
Neither@@johnjones3813
@johnjones3813 you're right the performance lacked but still was funny
@@johnjones3813 I was impressed with how Nate Bargatze kept a straight face throughout the sketch, and did NOT look like he was glued to cue cards. I think it was very well performed, by SNL standards.
Ted Kennedy driving off the bridge at Chappaquiddick was funnier than this skit, what a huge heaping pile of excrement 💩
I think Nate was heavily influential in this week's sketches. This was the best SNL I've watched in years. His timing and delivery are perfection. Brilliant comedian.
yes!
He has to be, because I have not watched in so long due to the stupidity of previoius SNL's. This one was by far one of the funniest!
They need to hire him as a writer. This episode blew the last two out of the water. I haven't seen SNL this good since the Tina Fey days!!!
@@bloodbentvessels3254 they couldn't pay him enough.
I agree. Last night's SNL was one of the better ones in recent memory along with Pedro Pascals guest hosting.
Kennan always plays off of whoever is hosting so perfectly. His comedy style fits every situation
yes,this. Kenan is one of the best comedians ever on SNL, every sketch he's in comes up because of him.
he's one of the greatest 'glue' players of all time
@@TJMoolTricia Agree to disagree. Mostly disagree. LOL

Do you mean KENAN? SP...
4:14 "......only GLAMOUR!" hahahahhahaha. Brilliant. Knee grab completes it.

That's my favorite part too!
But Americans spell it “glamor.” Only the magazine is “glamour” - even the Fergie song is G-L-A-M-O-R-O-U-S.
@@originalcyn I'm from the US - it's spelled glamour here. Glamorous in both countries.
@@tripperdelaluna1 I'm also from the US, both glamour and glamor are accepted spellings.
The way Nate just ignores Kenan's questions with a little pause and a contemplating stare is just genius...
He did that because he didn’t know the lines and has no acting ability so it was very uncomfortable, but yes it was really funny.
@@realityislost7052 did he say that was the reason in an interview somewhere?
You're missing the true genius, Kenan asks "How many feet to a mile" and Nate answers him correctly, meaning he DID hear and understand all of Kenan's questions
@realityislost7052 They have cue cards at all time, he wasn't forgetting his line. He was pausing because people were still laughing.
Nate’s comedic timing in this skit was impeccable.
"there's a little kicking" made me genuinely laugh out loud
"Sometimes 1, sometimes 3" lol!
I was crying laughing through this entire sketch!
I laughed so loud there and it’s an underwhelming joke on paper! Just the way Nate said it and the set up, I howled 😂😂
@@GDRaptorFan13 that's his talent :) glad the world got to see it
I haven't really thought much about it until this skit, but I bet football is confusing to somebody that is new to the sport. lots of strange rules if you stop and think about it.
One of the cleverest sketches I've seen on SNL in a long time. Kudos to the writers.
Mikey Day was the main writer.
Oh god, I'm in tears! It's nice to know there are some Americans who can laugh at themselves over the weights and measures!
Soldier: How many liters are in a gallon, sir?
Washington: Nobody knows.
He really was our greatest president.
For anyone who is curious, 3.8 Liters is the same as 1 Gallon, or 1 Liter is 0.26 Gallons.
Thank you! Cuz, for the life of me, I figured it had to either be 3 liters or 4. Turns out- both wrong!! Yaayyyy America!!!
Look at Jesse showing off.
@@justmejenny7986: I used to work at a water heater plant in Central Texas & since we shipped industrial water heaters outside The U.S. they were always measured in Liters, so I had to memorize the conversion rate for Liters & Gallons.
They forgot to mention we also spell litre differently as well. We write liter for ... Reasons
The skipping of Kenan’s questions has me on floor crying. 😂😂😂
Feels like a missed opportunity to bring up 3/5th.
You asked about temperature.
@@B0eing787Ooh…the fraction…you are so right!
You're easily amused.
with laughter? 'cause, ya know... a whole bunch of emotions would seem to fit here. if ya know what I mean? but yes lol it really makes the whole sketch better. LOL
This is such a perfect Nate Bargatze skit. Right in his wheelhouse. So well written and performed!
wheel well
@@evanfinch4987 Nice.
I was thinking he must have helped write it.
The British wrote it.
@@WillyLoman15no he didn’t Mikey day and his friends wrote it

I’ve watched this 3 times. This is one of the best sketches I’ve seen in a long time. Nate Bargatze killed it! “You asked about the temperature.” Hahahahaha
Try 10 times for me... fucking genius sketch.
Try 20, 5280.. of course
“Nobody knows.”
“I did not”
I sent to my friend who's immigrating. I said this explains how we measure here 😂
One of the top-ten SNL skits of all-time IMHO, brilliant!!!
I’m English, I have just gone down the snl rabbit hole over the last few months watching everything. Lots of sketches I adore but this one is definitely one of the greatest.
“You asked about temperature.”
“I did not.”
I watched it 10 times, and my brain starts releasing dopamine in anticipation every time I'm getting closer to this bit again. The whole thing is a masterpiece.
This was absolutely brilliant!! Perfectly written and performed, and Keenan's facial expressions were the icing on the cake! 😂😂😂
Keenan is a national treasure
Keenan's facial expressions have been the best thing about SNL for quite a while now.
Keenan is GOAT. Is he the longest running cast member on snl yet? And one of the only child actors who seems like he made it out with all his marbles and dignity into a fully realized and well adjusted national treasure of an actor/comedian. Long live Keenan
surprised they didn't mention "ounce" is both (insanely) maybe volume OR maybe weight
@@khaightlynn5295Yes, he’s been the longest running for a few years now. I think he’ll see the show out if it ends during the 50th season (that’s the rumor). I have been watching him since my girls watched Keenan and Kel when they were little. He’s always been hilarious. Love him!
I had never heard of Nate before I saw this skit. Just absolute brilliance in the writing and delivery. Keenan knocked it out of the park too.
He has specials on Netflix and Prime. I love his humor
@@jakemorrison548 I watched his prime special after seeing this skit. Funny dude.
He's one of the best stand up comics out there. He also has a podcast that's on youtube with other comics. Dusty Slay is on there too (trucker hat dude).
Mikey Day and Streeter Seidell wrote the skit
It used to be "more cowbell." Now my fav SNL skit is "there's a little kicking." 😂
Keenan’s stare had me dying 😂
Really? Dying? Was it that great?
That's all he ever does
@@johnjones3813It may or may not be great, but it doesn't need to be great for someone to enjoy it.
Kenan achieved his childhood dreams. He is one of the greatest comedic actors of all-time. He can captivate and kill with a look, a pause, a phrase. Sometimes even less than that! Sometimes he can do literally *nothing* and somehow steal the scene. He is truly a master of his craft.
I miss the What's up with That skits... very funny and it demonstrated his overall talent .
Nate's timing here is so hilarious. His pausing and dead pan delivery is so good. You can tell he is reading the cards at times, but his timing and pacing of it is brilliant. His eyes are so serious too. The way he says 'there is a little kicking' it is just perfect, and his shoulder pat at the end is absolutely hilarious.
Nate has the most expression-less eyes I've ever seen. lol. Same in his standup.
It’s so brilliant!
Wait, so this was not pre-recorded but acted on the stage?

As a former competitive swimmer, I loved the line (and the disainful look on his face when he said), "But only in certain unpopular sports like track and swimming."
I’m not lying when I say I have watched this sketch about 10 times and laughed just as hard every time.
Right 😂
Me, as well!
It’s a perfect sketch.
There’s not a wasted , unnecessary word. Pauses and turn of direction is good too. Darn, this one is good. I watched at least 20 times now 😂
This was like the first time I've laughed at SNL in like at least a decade
"Two scales of temperature... our great nation will use the random one." So hysterically spot on.
“What’s it called?” “Fahrenheit.” “Can you spell it?” “Impossible.” 😂
" And yet we won't!" 😆 I gotta try that to win an argument or something
This is easily top 20 in SNL history
“One will make sense to the entire world and one will be super random. Our great nation will use the random one.” 😂😂
His hand gesture during this phrase made it so much more funny and idk why 😂
F=1.8C+32. but the opposite calculation is a damn thing OTL
i wish he would have mentioned the actual F temps for freezign and boiling. it truly is random
@@retz119 I'm a very pro-metric American, but I do see the benefit of Fahrenheit. Its range of 0-100 incorporates probably 95% of the air temperatures we have on Earth. Plus with 180 degrees between freezing and boiling, it's more precise of a measurement than Celsius is.
@@CraigKostelecky1000%. People seem to lump Celsius in with meters and kilometers like it’s part of the same package, but it’s not. What makes the metric system is good is easy unit conversion, but no one has to convert millidegrees to kilodegrees. It’s a single, self-contained scale. And with Celsius you end up throwing away 60% of the scale and squishing everything we need temperature for down, so you end up needing fractions to set an air conditioner.
I’m also not sure why everyone thinks using the states of water is such an obvious thing to do. We don’t even reference the boiling point of water when we’re boiling water. You just set the burner to high.
As a European in the US… this had me *dying*. Twice! Nate’s delivery totally made this one.

That’s because it was clean comedy which is still the funniest!
“There’s a little kicking” had me crying
Mikey Day was interviewed about the writing and production of this sketch on Seth Meyers last night.
One of the best sketches I've seen, Mikey is brilliant
When I’m having a bad day I just think to myself “There’s a little kicking” and I laugh to myself.
Literally one of the most accurate and funny skits in a long time. Dry, intelligent humor. I love it.
I showed this video to the science teacher at my school in the Bronx. She said that only the honors kids would get it, but I disagree. We have a lot of Dominican students who think in metric.
Accurate? The metric system didn't exist yet
@@gokartninja1 Accurate as in it does not make sense
It's very funny, but it isn't accurate. England did not adopt the metric system until almost 1970. Also, Gridiron football (American football), Rugby football (rugger) and Association football (assoccer/soccer) were all named football back in the day because they were played on foot rather than on horseback like polo.
@@Doug_Hannon You do know accurate can mean different things depending on the context don't you? You ate going way more deep than my comment. What's accurate to me is how ppl question the measurements. You obviously are coming from a different perspective.

At 63, I recall HS in the 70’s where we were implored to learn the Metric system. “It’s gonna be here soon!”, all the teachers cried.
This sketch covered 50 years of cynicism, skepticism and sarcasm. And was funny. And also had a message. Nate is VERY FUNNY!

@@bradyguy7701 I seem to recall clear and red..?
10 years. Everything was going to be metric in 10 years. The FIRST time I was told that in grade school was in the early 1970's. And the kicker is that it truly DOES make so much more sense, compared to the random hodgepodge that we use. This is a sketch that may be more appreciated by older folks than younger ones. It's an instant classic though.
I’m a teacher. The principal opened the staff meeting by having us enjoy this sketch together!

Okay as a teacher, do you at least recognize that feet, yards, miles, pints, quarts, gallons are all from the British imperial measurement system? I admit I forgot this when I watched this skit and laughed so hard, but remembering the actual history sorta turns the whole premise on its head 🤣

"And what of slaves, sir?"

The most popular reference in my family is "...There's a little kicking."
An instant classic!! This sketch was one of the best in the last few decades. Good to see Nate finally getting recognized for his comedic talent.
The stare-off after “You asked about temperature” and “I did not” was a heavyweight battle that ended in a tie.
Not only was this the best sketch of the night, but it's by far one of the best SNL has put out in years.

Right when Nate said " Where we choose our own weights and measures" you knew it was gonna go off the rails! Can't say how many times I've watched this one, so funny. His dead pan presentation is what makes this skit so good. And the way Kenans questions are never answered, priceless!

He was on Carvey and Spade's podcast talking about it. SNL's writers wrote it and absolutely nailed it.
He really is set apart as the cleverest comic of our time. His delivery and timing are flawless
Could watch that 5,280 times. Of course!
I’ve watched the skit so many damned times. I wish there were more sketches with Keenan and Nate together. This sketch and “Chef Show” are masterful. They play off each other so well.
Just finished rewatching them both. Pure genius
I think Nate will get THE JACKET!❤
The funniest thing is there's an episode of Chopped with 3 black chefs & 1 white. They did NOT show the white Chef AT ALL .....till he won. So the Chef skit was especially funny to my bf & I.
Yes!
"Yes.... Im sorry..."
The writing of this is pretty good, but the delivery is impeccable. I've watched this more than ten times since it aired. Bravo Nate Bargatze.
:) dude me too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I saw him in Chicago the following week. It was priceless
My kids know this skit by the word.
Me too. I've returned to this video over and over. I had just discovered Nate a few months before he was on SNL. Best comedian I've seen in a good while.
DUDE, the writing in this is freaking SHAKESPEARE level; WHAT are you Smoking?
This is probably the 40th time I've watched this. I die laughing every time. His timing is perfection.
Same!
I keep watching it too. Fantastic.
This is an all-timer. It's as good as anything SNL ever did.
Nate’s delivery on “nothing” is absolutely impeccable
This is one of SNL’s best sketches, ever.😂
I absolutely agree, I’m so glad i caught this because I really don’t think it’s that great anymore but this was literally the best sketch EVER
Are you mentally handicapped?
“There’s a little kicking”
Entire sketch is a laugh out loud riot, but "Where all men are free" followed by the no response shoulder rub is when I ABSOLUTELY LOST IT! 😂😆🤣
I love that, and when he grabs the guys leg on Glamour. Its those tidbits that sell it.
Bowen Yang ‘s facial expression is gold too, “so they can line up” 😂, but they never will😂
That was the funniest thing I’ve seen on SNL in years

They just showed this skit to us teachers at a math meeting. We were laughing so hard!
One of the best SNL skits in the last few years. Nate crushed it.
I particularly enjoy that Mikey Day is wearing a Union jacket from the Civil War.
🧐
Wow - good eye
I think it was a uniform from the war of 1812.
@@NoPastNoFate
I think it's a (Brig. General's)
Civil War Union Senior
double-breasted Officer Frock Coat
This gets funnier every time I watch! 🤣🤣 Keenan's questions and Nate's non- response, responses 😂😂😂😂
Sounds about America
I've been watching SNL for a long time and this is one of the funniest and most self-ironic sketches. The timing and the content is brilliant.
Best skit in 5 years.
I was calling out lines before the happened and died at every punch 😂
Sad if true
@@MrTsiolkovsky call ur mum, she was there m8
It was legit. "Where all men are free, right?" 😂
I loved this one!
How is that sad if true dude? This was literally the funniest sketch in the last 30 years
