He and Frank Caliendo from Mad TV both received the same amount of recognition through the mid-2000s. Whereas Frank ran with that and created a fruitful comedy casino touring career, Darrell squandered it by drinking.
I love the way the writers snuck in a reference to George H.W. Bush’s infamous “read my lips, no new taxes” quote with Bush Jr.’s signature verbal slip-ups turning it into “read my mouth.”
@@aidangriffiths5075 Hmm... We will see how this ends. A lot of cheating has been going on. Will Democrats and their allies get away with this? This isn't the first time they did this and the question is whether they will get away with it again. Look, at the end of the day a win is a win and a lose is a lose.
Ummm... Wut? No. I was alive and old enough to remember. Hell to the no! How the hell do you think we got here?! SCOTUS went against the will of the people and placed Dubbya as the new feudalistic corporate overlord of just letting terrorisms happen, dismantling the Constitution, invaded sovereign nations to steal their natural resources just like the British Empire, and war criming under the guise of "spreading freedoms." He quoted Tony Blair's MI6 Dossier that lied about WMDs in Iraq word-for-word in his 2002 State of the Union address. He's the grandson of a Nazi agent who tried to coup FDR in the Business Plot of 1933, Prescott Bush, and the son of a cold war 1-term president but 3 wars CIA spook father, H.W. Bush who many believe was behind the Reagan assassination attempt... Albeit, if he truly was, he wouldn't have missed. Nothing is simpler about the year 2000, and all the hell it would unleash for decades to come. Anthrax & 9/11 & two foreign invasions & actual election fraud & the media blitz of apocalyptic Y2K fear-mongering on TV 24/7 leading up to the New Year where most of America legit thought the power grid and telecommunications were going down, and non-Mormons had been "prepping" doomsday bunkers where the hoarded the exact same ish that people selfishly hoarded in order to re-sell at a massive markup at the beginning of COVID. A soft coup is no better than a hard coup. A coup is a coup, and this one forever eroded the Constitution and true freedom of speech (not the hate speech all the right-wingers use to pretend they don't plan on destroying the 1st Amendment the first chance they get). After Dubbya took office, nothing has ever been the same. We have TSA because of Bush. DHS & ICE, because of Bush. Domestic warrantless wiretapping and mass surveillance under the NSA, and with a lot of help from the British GCHQ to get around that 4th Amendment, because of Bush. 20 years of wars started under false pretenses, that bankrupted this country, enriched the richest people in the world creating the worst income inequality gap in the world, and destroyed America's global reputation for engaging in war crimes and never holding the war criminal, Dubbya, accountable. It made us hypocrites on the world stage. Idk if you're just young, or not American, or working for a GOP crisis management PR Firm, but this is one of the crazier statements I've seen on social media... Which says a lot.
America was a better place 20 years ago it took a month to know who was going to be president and the country moved along fine with no crazy left and right wing psychos rioting in the streets, damnn we were making funny skits on SNL then how times have not changed for the better
Well this looks like a back to the future moment for 2024. A sitting vice president is in the race just like in 2000. Which state is gonna be the Florida of 2000 ?
Was this the sketch where Darrel Hammond had cut himself up the arm and they patched him up with gauze and had him still go out on stage? .. I know it happened one of the first few times he played Gore in 2000.
I remember these events succinctly. It was rather a sad time. I'm glad Bush won since I'm from Texas. I think Gore having one would have been a better president. That just what I think.
Sean barnes, yep, simpler times, now everyone spewing venom at everyone. Social media destroyed our way of life and won't stop until total control. 1984.big brother is watching.
This is an oldie, and am just now seeing it for the first time in 2018 (what's with all the comments below showing '1 month ago'?) but this is a scream. Makes you wonder if current politics wouldn't be better run by entertainers than the real thing?!
I mean SNL still mocks both parties. They even made fun of Clinton to her face about her wishy washy stance on gay marriage. They also did a whole ad where they mocked Clinton for trying to be like Bernie because she was doing poorly with the young voters.
@@brittanyflowerday but it's not funny? Like the George Bush and Bill Clinton stuff was hilarious, even a few decent ones of Obama though those were hit and miss, but this wasn't even comedy...
@@matthewcrockett604 I didn't find this video particularly funny, just because I was so out of the loop that I missed the meaning of the jokes. I always liked the Trump ones, though.
@@brittanyflowerday I honestly wish I could find even 1 good Trump video, because I honestly think they'd be closest to the George Bush videos Will Ferrell did, but none of them have come close. They focus too much on insulting him and less on the actual comedy side of things. That's why I hate these 🙄
@@matthewcrockett604 Insulting him is comedy because he'd be too stupid to realize that he's being made fun of. I'm just glad we don't have to listen to him anymore.
Darrell did a HUGE amount of work on SNL but didn’t get much recognition. You are great, Darrell!
Exactly
He got a lot of recognition in the 90s and 2000's for all his political and other impressions.
@@RichV20 the op is probably too young to know that.
He and Frank Caliendo from Mad TV both received the same amount of recognition through the mid-2000s. Whereas Frank ran with that and created a fruitful comedy casino touring career, Darrell squandered it by drinking.
I’d rather be drinking
I instantly started laughing once they showed Will just him looking at the camera is hilarious!

Darrell Hammond was right to the tee when it came to looking like Al Gore. Besides, the political version of “I Got You Babe” was funny!
The last time we had a presidential candidate that was a joke we could laugh at.
This Gore impression is one of my favorite SNL impressions ever. Makes me wish Gore had won.
That teleprompter joke was really underrated
Darrell Hammond was amazing in each and every character he played. His Clinton, Cheney and Trump were all incredible!
The 2020 presidential election brought me here. 😩🤦🏾♀️😓😅
Wait for monday with all the flood of federal lawsuits
Me too.. Woody Harrelson got me ctfu...

Brilliant writing AND acting!
“Whoa ... deja vu”, said 2020.
Darrell Hammond looks like he could be Gore's twin brother
I don’t like how this was recommended to me today. RUclips better not be sending me a message
I don't think so, but I hope Democrats steal will be prevented!

Will Ferrell did a better impersonation than Will Forte.
He did a better impression than Bush himself did 🤣
That's not WIll Forte
Filthy Ravioli he is a better bush
It was Ferrell's fault for leaving that you had to make that comparison
2000 seems like such a simpler time.
It was so much simpler when there were only 9 votes for president which mattered. /s
Ummm... Wut?

Hammond was great as Clinton, but I always thought he resembled Gore more.
I agree with that
Does anyone else think “they’re far to close together!”. It’s a different world now haha
LOL! Simpler times......
Don't kid yourself
You ain’t fucking ready
Much simpler... 😂
the tie changing each time is great
I Always enjoy these two together
Will's Bush impression is incredible.
Will Ferrel's W impression is a national treasure.
Back in the day, we didn’t have to worry about Russians meddling in elections, just Katherine Harris
People who believe in Russian meddling are autistic.
LoL nice try. The dems kept wanting to count until they, "found" enough votes for Gore to win.
I don't think they ever did. Bush won every possible recount real or imaginary.
No doubt the media and FBI follow a rabbit trail to nowhere regarding Trump while real evidence points directly to Hillary's campaign.
Mick Funny depressing times here in fl. Fucking Bush and bro jeb stole election . should have rioted all over s fla. Still sucks here,big time
perfect comedy duo
Will Ferrell is the best Bush lol ... 2020 bought me here
Great moment for laughter!

The political fight & future outlook are both a lot more frightening 20 years later, aren't they? I'm pretty scared, anyway.
We might see a reenactment in 2020 though, it will be much more contemptuous.

Literally like all states were competitive back in those days

Read my mouth
Watching this in 2020.... this is nice

Brilliant.🎉🎉🎉 Noeldechen. FLORIDA Bound.

Chris Parnell did such a good Tom Brokaw. Doesn’t Chris voice the father in Rick and Morty?
2:32 I heard a broken window
Humor helps!
The only smart sketch from an episode hosted by Tom Green.
Was this the sketch where Darrel Hammond had cut himself up the arm and they patched him up with gauze and had him still go out on stage? .. I know it happened one of the first few times he played Gore in 2000.
I think it was the "lockbox" debate sketch. Pretty crazy that he was in crisis like that and still going on live tv and slaying this role.
I remember these events succinctly. It was rather a sad time. I'm glad Bush won since I'm from Texas. I think Gore having one would have been a better president. That just what I think.
With the cards Bush was dealt I think he honestly did a great job overall.
