The complete lack of emotion in his eyes contributes so much to the whole sketch. He's not happy to be singing about his space pants. He genuinely just needs to inform the world.
"Did You See My Pants?, No Wait You Missed Em' My Pants Are A Tour Of The Solar System" Peter Dinklage sold this skit in every way but that line always gets me.🤣🤣🤣
@@KrazySpydrLady I sense a disturbance in the force. As if a million cheesy, space pants, pick-up punchlines about his ass being out of his world were not suddenly silenced in the 90s. .....Anyone have any ear plugs?
The comments in this thread are making me cry! Bobby Moynihan "Intergalactic space pants, what?" Too funny! People who say this show isn't funny anymore have no brains.
@@thewateringwiz7118 I feel like the writers started the brainstorming session for this skit by smoking weed. But when someone pitched the idea of Dinklage singing a new wave song about space pants, they immediately switched to cocaine.
I really love how Gwen Stefani started singing for a second and realized it wasn't her time yet so she just kind of started waving her arms around and played it off really well
@@NewYork81983 I don't think you understood what happened. SNL doesn't usually expect the cast to remember or even always know what they are going to say or do in a sketch so it's all on the teleprompter. Gwen thought when they had her come out that what was on the screen was for her so she went to hop in but it wasn't her que. You can actually hear her faintly start to say "Ladies-" and then catch herself. Peter's voice was just very loud over it. She continued like a boss but definitely didn't lip sing.
I remember reading somewhere that as soon as he heard a description of the character, Peter Dinklage said, "I feel this guy would have a symmetrical haircut." So the He-Man wig was probably his idea.
Game of Thrones Season 8 should have ended with Tyrion Lannister standing on top of the Wall singing Space Pants, which causes the Night King's head to explode and all the zombies to drop down dead. Well, they are already dead, but you know what I mean.
So right now it's 6:35 I'm in Massachusetts and I've watched this sketch about 20 times in a row just this one time. I'm so high on hash but I've seen this so many times there's no way this will ever not be funny. I saw this live on TV and then I spent about a week worrying about how can I see this again cuz it was just too funny I think Gwen Stefani kind of ruined it a little bit
I was just trying to say the time voice texting and put it to password the video ended and the next one is coach Bert if you know the coach Bert skit it's pretty funny with Steve Buscemi
Peter Dinklage's "YES YES YES YES YES" when he's happy that the guy said it will never make me not laugh, also the face that Gwen Stafani messes up so much cracks me up!
When the 4th mafia guy appeared, I thought the sketch was going to be about that, more and more guys appearing on both sides of the table. I definitely didn't expect SpacePants
That reminds of a skit in a pet shop that started with two rabbits in a cage. Every time the camera angle changed, there were more rabbits until there were like a thousand at the end. You know, because rabbits.
@@nsjx Dinklage played the scene to perfection so far as anyone who wasn't part of SNL can know. The lyrics are: When I say "space pants" you say, [pause for a beat] "are intergalactic space pants" [pause for a beat] "SPACE PANTS!" [pause to move microphone] (mafia boss) "Are intergallactic space pants?"
I think my favorite part of this whole thing is Bobby’s confused “our intergalactic space pants.” Like he was trying to conduct his business, but he’s also a good audience member. What a guy.
I think "serious situation gets interrupted by bizarre song" is my favorite genre of SNL sketch. I mean there's this, Pizza Town, Bar Fight, and probably others I can't think of
I watched this when I was sick with Covid , alone and scared and so sick . I put on you tube and this popped up , I watched it and laughed and laughed and you know what ? I started feeling better !! I owe it to this hilarious skit ! Thank you
When I was really sick with covid and feeling down, these SNL skits really made me laugh and helped me in my recovery. Watch the Adam Driver, Del Taco skit..
I can picture the writer going like “I don’t know what to write this sketch about!” And his six-year-old goes “Write about space pants!” And he goes “Stacey, you’re a genius!” lol
Think about how hard you laughed at this. Then realize how difficult it must've been for Peter D. to do this entire thing with a straight face. That is professionalism ladies, gentlemen, and whatever else
Me and my dad have been watching this skit since I was about 5. We both memorized all the lines and totally forgot about this. Was a great way to end my night with a smile.
Stefon: "this place has everything: mafia interrogations, chairs, an ursia minor. And look over there! Is that Gwen Stefani? Yes, it's actually her." Meyers: "Okay, I have to ask.

Well in a real life scenario I hope the Mafia boss watch SNL and get the humor. Mafia Boss: Space pants You: Intergalactic space pants! 😂 Just make sure you try leave before the song end. LOL
Dinklage is just too good at this for it to be a random thing SNL asked him to do. I reckon it's his thing - the song and the robot dancing. And he asked the SNL writers to turn it into a skit!
That was top-tier acting by Peter Dinklage. The stupidity of the skit, combined with such seriousness, made it such an excellent performance. I won't be ever to forget Space Pants.
See, I actually found that super funny. To me it felt like she was going to sing, but he just loudly sang over her. I could be wrong. I just find it funnier that way xD
Seriously, you're going to call her out for the fact that she almost said her line too soon, yet not call HIM out for the fact that he screwed up the line about "space pants are Intergalactic slacks"? it's part of doing live TV, there will be mistakes, but both of these were truly minor in an otherwise epic skit.
Mikey Day said in the Mashable interview that "Devo's "Whip It" was the inspiration". Edit : I'm adding the last question about the music in the sketch. Mashable : That song is so damn catchy. Can you talk about writing the music for this sketch? Also, when writing a music-heavy sketch like this one, does it come with added pressures because of all the things that can go wrong (missing/forgetting lyrics, staying on beat, etc.)? Mikey Day : We told Eli, the show's music producer, that we wanted a very high energy song with an intense beat. Devo's "Whip It" was the inspiration. We wrote the lyrics, gave them to Eli and he created the sound that is Space Pants. There's definitely an added pressure with musical sketches - but luckily, the lyrics weren't that intricate. So if Peter ever got tripped up, he could just yell, "Space Pants!" and we'd be good. Fortunately, he nailed it. SPACE ! PANTS ! SPACE PANTS !
"Alright, I'll be on Saturday Night Live... but we're doing my Space Pants sketch that I wrote" "Mr Dinklage, I'm not sure that..." "SILENCE! NO SPACE PANTS, NO DINKLAGE!"
doesnt ANYBODY notice how the other guy that was supposed to be next to Pete Davidson was being "talked to" but wasnt there to be talked to until he randomly popped up at 0:28
His machine-like movements are incredible he actually looks like a robot
Yeah. He's able to move those short arms really quickly. Also I think how thick his jacket is adds to the illusion.
His space pants really complete the illusion.
Yep. I agree. He must be a robot.
Omg so funny! actually really talented lmao!
Space pants!!!
I love how serious he stays during the whole scene.
It's called being a good actor

Why wouldn’t Gwen Stefani want to hang out with Space Pants!!?
Best line in the skit!
His name isn't Space Pants, though! His name is Jonathan Cummins!
Especially seeing as she's already wearing space shorts. It's a natural pairing.
Nathan V Comets, not Cummins.
The real question is why is Jonathan Cummings hanging out with Gwen Stefani
I love how legitimately annoyed Dinklage looks when He says "When I say space, you say pants...space!"
And just gets a "what?" In response 🤣
He was pissed.
I feel like Peter Dinklage actually understood the bit better than the cast members.
I remember reading somewhere that as soon as he heard a description of the character, Peter Dinklage said, "I feel this guy would have a symmetrical haircut." So the He-Man wig was probably his idea.
Of course he did he’s a genius
@@kkachi that is just his real hair so he tries to get it into things as to not wear a wig like he normally does in everyday life.

Game of Thrones Season 8 should have ended with Tyrion Lannister standing on top of the Wall singing Space Pants, which causes the Night King's head to explode and all the zombies to drop down dead. Well, they are already dead, but you know what I mean.

(mafia boss) "Are intergallactic space pants?"

i have watched SNL for 35 years and this is the only time i saw someone not be ready for a skit. the idiot lasted one season and was gone.
I noticed.
you can see the table shake when he bumped into it while running onto the set
Not to mention the heavy breathing once he was there. Damn near screwed up the sketch, which would have been a real shame. This one's golden.
Maybe he was taking a bathroom break. When nature calls, you answer.
”Look at my pants with the eyes in your face, my legs are covered in outer space” might be the best song lyrics ever written.
The fact that Peter Dinklage is really deep into his character is priceless!

THE Best!🤣
It's very rude to talk when we are discussing *Space Pants*
“No way you missed them, my pants are a tour of the solar system” 😂
😂🤣😂🤣😂
LOL Best line in the song!
Even at their best, Lennon & McCartney or Bob Dylan would have *killed* to write a lyric this brilliant.
Who else thinks that Peter Dinklage needs to return on SNL 🙋
🙋
🙋
I'd like all the GoT cast to be on SNL together
He can do a parody of Kansas; "Tyrion My Wayward Son"!
at least bring back his space pants
Peter Dinklage performance is truly outstanding 😀
That's one small step for man and one giant leap for -- "MY PANTS!!!"
His pants are a tour of the Solar System
Ha!! That intro KILLED ME!!!
Fuck I didn't notice that haha
...and then the dance have my cheeks achin with laughter.
@@ProjectFlashlight612 Something tells me that pick-up line doesn't work well outside of Alabama.
Dinklage is just too good at this for it to be a random thing SNL asked him to do. I reckon it's his thing - the song and the robot dancing. And he asked the SNL writers to turn it into a skit!
This comment is operating under the faulty assumption Peter Dinklage can't do fucking everything.
Also he used to be in a band, so yea.
This is Odd and funny as hell.. and absolutely something tyrion would do IF given the opportunity...
Yeah, this song is growing on me too. It seems so random at first, but now I'm stuck with it like with David S. Pumpkin.
Jaffa Orange any questions?
Jaffa Orange Any Questions???
YES SEVERAL
That was top-tier acting by Peter Dinklage. The stupidity of the skit, combined with such seriousness, made it such an excellent performance. I won't be ever to forget Space Pants.
ya know..if this whole "acting" thing Peter is trying to do never works out, he has a huge future in music. fucking #spacepants.
+ndgv2 Oh, it's working out all right.
space pants
lol
+ndgv2 After game of thrones he could all ways join devo !
The acting thing seems to be working out fine so far... Can't say the same for anyone else in the sketch
"Oh, I'm sorry! Is what's going on up there more interesting than what's going on right here?" "KIND OF!"
yes yes we've all seen the video
unimpressiveavenger That's what I was thinking. Of course Peter Dinklage is more intresting than a maggia conversation.
Look at my pants! You cannot miss them! My pants are a tour of the solar system!
lol
lmao
😂😂😂
+Nick Brock SPACE PANTS!
+thederpy seal WHEN I SAY SPACE PANTS, YOU SAY OUR INTERGALACTIC SPACE PANTS!
SPACE PANTS!
Re living his punk rock front man days 🤘🤘
Gwen Stefani fucked up when she first came on. She started mouthing Peter's line and caught herself lol.
well it is live tv
See, I actually found that super funny. To me it felt like she was going to sing, but he just loudly sang over her. I could be wrong. I just find it funnier that way xD
FreakinSweet1987 i think it was part of the joke
Why it is called Saturday Night Live. Not recorded last Saturday and edited. Does not quite have the same ring.
Seriously, you're going to call her out for the fact that she almost said her line too soon, yet not call HIM out for the fact that he screwed up the line about "space pants are Intergalactic slacks"? it's part of doing live TV, there will be mistakes, but both of these were truly minor in an otherwise epic skit.
I feel like if the camera had stayed on, Peter Dinklage and Gwen Stefani would still be repeating "Space Pants!" to this day.
Maybe in an alternate universe they are singing space pants and space shorts back and forth, eternally?
Hi mom
wish this was made into a singles cover. i want it on repeat!
I just have to watch this every 6 months. It's my life essence.
I want to marry u
At first, I read it as “life sentence.”
I have to watch this every DAY
@The Fly One I see. Thank you for your time. Have a nice day.
Do you watch it with the eyes in your face?
When he started waving his arm I laughed out loud 🤣
3:16 she tries to start singing but it's not her cue so she just tries to play it off lol
Thx sherlock
@@007nadineL nice liking your own comment 👌
0.....that's how many F's she gives
I feel this could be a song made by the B-52's
It's the B-side to Channel Z
Or Devo
@@vlera8447 really? I mean Devo do not sound that comical, but energic.
@@vlera8447 -
Devo or Oingo Boingo
Mikey Day said in the Mashable interview that "Devo's "Whip It" was the inspiration".
Edit : I'm adding the last question about the music in the sketch.
Mashable :
That song is so damn catchy. Can you talk about writing the music for this sketch? Also, when writing a music-heavy sketch like this one, does it come with added pressures because of all the things that can go wrong (missing/forgetting lyrics, staying on beat, etc.)?
Mikey Day :
We told Eli, the show's music producer, that we wanted a very high energy song with an intense beat. Devo's "Whip It" was the inspiration. We wrote the lyrics, gave them to Eli and he created the sound that is Space Pants. There's definitely an added pressure with musical sketches - but luckily, the lyrics weren't that intricate. So if Peter ever got tripped up, he could just yell, "Space Pants!" and we'd be good. Fortunately, he nailed it.
SPACE !
PANTS !
SPACE PANTS !
After this Peter Dinklage will read his contracts more carefully.
Why? He is a comedian, too. And: he is the biggest, so he can do this
"Alright, I'll be on Saturday Night Live... but we're doing my Space Pants sketch that I wrote"
"Mr Dinklage, I'm not sure that..."
"SILENCE! NO SPACE PANTS, NO DINKLAGE!"
Huh??? Do you not know how SNL works?? Celebrities are paid like 5k for their appearance but go off
More carefully? Let me guess, he didn't get to keep the Space Pants after the skit?
Nah.... He might be short but his balls are bigger than the median Human size.
doesnt ANYBODY notice how the other guy that was supposed to be next to Pete Davidson was being "talked to" but wasnt there to be talked to until he randomly popped up at 0:28
His robot dance is ridiculously on point. Bravo space man
I can't let go of this song from my brain. LOL
미리보기 방지 lol
such a banger
Space pants
Yes lol
The theme song for my summer of 2016
please play this song at my funeral
Strong Bad lol samee
Must buy space pants for burial!
Strong Bad lmao 😂😂😂😂
Strong Bad you are hilarious!
This might genuinely be the most accurate-looking robot-moves I’ve ever seen in another human being.
NASA should use SPACE PANTS as an astronaut recruitment ad!
Or for the space force.
An underappreciated moment:
One small step for man, one giant leap for
*MY PANTS*
By a midget! 😂🤣😂
It's funny how Gwen Stefani was about to come in at 3:16 but then she was like "Nope, that's not my cue..."
Looked like lipsync to me, tbh.
Ivan Vučica i think she just messed up and they had to edit it, they do it all the time when the actors mess up or laugh.
@@kratos7893 You don't hear her through what would be Peter's microphone.
@@ivucica i actually did hear her a little and then she stopped
His pissy look when the dude doesn't do the callback right is everything
I love when the mafia boss replies: our intergalactic space pants! & he says Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes! 😂🤣😂
Anyone else notice Gwen stefani almost jumping into her verse too early?
i saw this video so many times and i somehow just realized it !!
yep
I think she accidently misread the cue card and started to say Dinklage's line.
Miguel Tejada she ruined it.
Yes!!!!! XD
